Hello Pulse
Generator Membership,
My name is Matt Thomas and I am the newest member of the
Pulse Generator team. I will be managing the five new Pulse Generator
facilities down here in Calgary. I am an avid sports enthusiast and let’s just
address the elephant in the room… I am a Flames fan! Now, after I have made
most of the Edmonton members angry, let me tell you a little bit about myself. I
have always been passionately involved in sports and physical activities.
Beginning with my dad teaching me to bat switch behind our first house (for
which his dreams of an early retirement sadly did not come true). During middle/
high school I participated, and did quite well, in basketball, volleyball, and
track (as well as many other various activities). After an ACL injury in my
senior year, I switched from team to individual sports including: running and
weight lifting.
I have recently finished my graduate degree in exercise
science from the University of Lethbridge, during which I gained both
theoretical knowledge and practical training experience. I have had the
opportunity to assess and train individuals in every walk of life ranging from
children to Lethbridge Hurricanes hockey players to middle aged adults. I believe in diverse, functional training
including holistic weight lifting techniques and varying intensities of
cardiovascular training. I specialize in optimizing workouts and making use of
short workout durations, as within the hospital setting time is at a definite
premium. My focus is on translating theoretical knowledge to practical application
and am always trying to keep up with the newest research in order to provide clients
with interesting, novel, and research based workouts.
In my spare time I enjoy being outdoors, hiking, biking
and camping with my family; which includes my new fiancé,
Kara, and two young pets Kobe and Lebron (I still don’t know how she allowed me
to name them :P)
I am very excited for the opportunity to work with such
great people and looking forward to meet all of you in the facilities.
Cheers,
Matt
Cheers,
Matt
