Swimming | π₯ Olympic Champion & Fastest Swimmer in History
Cam came to us willing to question everything.
He quit swimming after placing 29th at the Tokyo 2021 Olympics and was widely regarded as a "failed" athlete. Cam hired Matt at the start of his comeback in 2023, one that earned him his first:
π₯ World Championship (2023) π₯ Olympic Gold (2024) π₯ World Record (2026) - previously unbeaten for 16 years π₯ Commonwealth Games Gold (2026)
50m in 20.88s made Cameron McEvoy the fastest swimmer in history .
"There aren't too many people like Matt in this world who have the eye, the experience and the problem solving skills in human movement. Matt was an integral part of this entire journey for me in the lead up to both my world championship title and Olympic title."
WORLDWIDE ONLINE COACHING
This is online strength & mobility coaching - and that's not a limitation, it's the point.
The work isn't done by counting your reps as you train in the gym. It's done in the program design, in the planning, in understanding exactly what your body needs at each point in your season and the tools to build the training accordingly.
Cam won Olympic gold and had met Matt two times in person (the first was after he became World Champion, the second was in Paris for the Olympics).
Amanda broke the Singapore national record after only meeting once in person.
Distance has simply never been the variable that determines the outcome.
"I'm most known online for flexibility - but honestly, I consider myself as more of an expert in strength and performance programming. Flexibility research is about 15 years behind strength training, which means to actually become an expert in flexibility, I had to be an expert in the models behind strength first.
This created a unique skill set in understanding how to combine strength and mobility training. My personal love for complex motor skills (one arm handstands, acrobatics, and more) created an understanding of programming strength & mobility for sport that set my career." - Matt Smith, Performance Coach
By understanding the strength model Matt was able to build out the model for how flexibility training actually works - before the research caught up.
One arm pullups, all splits, high-level acrobatic skills & more. Matt nerded out in order to walk the walk himself.
Matt is now hired by Olympic champions, record holders, elite teams & more across a broad range of sports & performance disciplines.
Surfing | π National & European Champion + Challenger Series Surfer
Gui needed a training system that could work around the unpredictability of a surf season - travel, conditions, competition windows. We built it around his calendar and peaked him at the right moments.
"On this journey, I feel like I've learned not just about flexibility, but about the human side of it too - and the mechanics of my own body. It's something I never expected would become such a main priority."
We offer periodised strength & mobility coaching built around how your body adapts - mapped to your competition calendar, your season, and your real life.
Every program is different because every athlete's situation is different.
Swimming | π Fastest Swimmer in South East Asia & Singapore National Record
Amanda broke the Singapore national record at a point in her career when most people would have written her off. That didn't happen by accident. It happened because we built a system that accounted for every variable in her season and refused to accept the narrative that her best years were behind her.
" My dream team. Iβm so blessed to have met you guys. Thank you for believing in a vision bigger than any one race. Thank you for having the courage to do things differently. Thank you for helping me see performance through a completely new lens. "
Calisthenics | Calisthenics Coach & Athlete
Andry came to us with one specific problem - his flexibility.
"If you have any issues or struggles in your body, Matt will find a way to fix it. He has such deep knowledge of every part of the body, and he understands that everyone is different - with their own uniqueness and struggles. Being able to find that special, tailored approach for each person really shows the depth of his expertise."
THE PERFORMANCE PROJECT PHILOSOPHY
"Our coaching calls felt like two mad scientists pulling apart the rulebook." - Cam McEvoy, physics PhD & fastest swimmer in history
This is for the person who is already in the top 0.1% of what they do and wants to take it even further.
β You are not yet competing or performing at an elite level.
β You don't have a competition/performance calendar and goals attached to it.
β You want flexibility work only - the Mobility & Flexibility Toolkit is a better fit for that.
β You want to be handed a programme and follow it - without ever questioning why.
βοΈ You're already performing at a world class level and want to peak exactly at the right moment.
βοΈ You approach your performance the way a professional does: with seriousness and standards most athletes around you don't share.
βοΈ You have ambitions to achieve the highest level in your field.
βοΈ You think critically about your own performance and want a coaching team that does the same.
We work with a small number of athletes at any give time, because world class coaching requires genuine attention to detail.
Spots open rarely, because our athletes stay for years. We've just expanded capacity, so four are available.
Tell us about your sport, your competition calendar and what you've tried before.
We read every application - and if we think we can make a real difference to your performance, we'll reach out.
No obligation - just a conversation about whether this is a good fit for both sides.
If youβre not already world-class at what you do, the Mobility & Flexibility Toolkit might be the right place to start:
