MATTHEW P.

Matthew Pryor Gym Optional Profile Picture

Location: Louisville, KY

Speciality: Establishing balance with fitness.

Favorite Food: There are other foods besides Mexican?

I’m the founder of HomeFitnessGurus.com and BodyTithe.com, author of The Body Tithe Devotional, NASM-CPT, and an Independent Beachbody Coach.

I’m married to my beautiful, running-junkie wife, Kim. When I’m not busy with one of my four awesome kids, I like watching basketball, playing around in the kitchen, pretending I know how to garden, and reading about technology.

Oh… and I like Mexican food more than most Mexicans do.

    PB2 Review

    Love peanut butter but trying to watch the fat or calories? Is it really possible to get the flavor of peanuts with only 15% of the fat? Sounds too good to be true ... or is it?

Fitness Tip

  • Research is finding that people who exhibit/express the most gratitude are happier, healthier, and more energetic. Grateful people report fewer bouts with headaches, stomachaches, nausea, even acne, while also spending more time exercising! And the more a person is inclined towards gratitude, the less lonely, stressed, anxious and depressed they will be.

    So do your body a favor and give thanks!

Testimonials

  • I was feeling defeated and frustrated with my health due to a chronic illness, but Matthew and the group met me where I was at and provided the balance of grace and truth that I needed. I lost 10 lbs during my first challenge, but more importantly I learned to be faithful with my responsibilities (eating well, exercising, etc.) and to trust God with the rest.

  • Vitamix Review: Our Favorite Appliance

    Vitamix. Is it everything they say it is? I'm here to tell you, it's more. This multi-purpose, powerhouse of a machine will not only help get you healthier, you'll be looking for excuses to use it. It's without its flaws, but we wouldn't trade it for 100 pounds of organic kale.
