Meet Matthew Marcinczyk | National level NPC Bodybuilder and business owner

We had the good fortune of connecting with Matthew Marcinczyk and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Matthew, how has your background shaped the person you are today?
I was originally born in new Braunfels. Texas only lived there for about two years. Then my family had moved to Swedesboro New Jersey and that’s pretty much where I grew up. My parents instilled in some of your hard work and dedication, but towards the end of high school, a lot of my friends were in Philadelphia so that’s where I was for a long time, and during that time, my best friend was killed. I saw a lot of violence that was not necessary but from my friend that passed away from my family everybody always wanted me to be happy and successful in life especially my friend. He always told me, Matt if you keep doing this, you better make something from it and I’m proud because I did, so my background and upbringing impacted me as in I may not have always saw the best things but I was raised by one of the best moms you could ask for and one of the best grandfathers you can have around so one thing I can say from experiencing a lot of violence in Philadelphia, and thinking you might not be able to achieve something I want to let you know that you can achieve whatever you set your mind to no matter what it is as long as he’s such a mind to it and put everything towards it you can achieve that goal because I am an example of that I kept pushing got further rank in bodybuilding. I created my own business so now I own my own company and threw out that I got signed to a modeling agency, so no matter what do whatever you put your mind to it even though my background, and I’m bringing some of the stuff I saw it was bad, but it made me who I am today and who I am today I would change for the world.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I would say one thing with my company that sets me apart from others is yes I write custom diets. Yes, I write custom workouts. Yes a Personal Trainer like many others but what sets me apart is I had received a black belt so that gives me another angle on how to coach and train people I also involve mental health very big because I feel like it’s not discussed as much as it should be being someone that deals with the anxiety. I also provide support for mental health as much as I can. I would say so far I’m most proud of the accomplishments I have made and fitness and how much I have been able to help other people achieve their goals and I would say what I’m most excited for is the more peoples lives I can help change for the better.
How I got to where I am today professionally I will describe in about three words, consistency, motivation, and determination.
I never gave up against any odds that were given against me whether that was surgery whether it was Covid, I found a way to push through and get around it. Coming back to bodybuilding after surgery on my hand wasn’t easy but like I said, consistency, motivation, and determination. Got me to where I needed. When Covid came I didn’t just bail out and not compete in bodybuilding. I built a gym in my basement. I traveled hours to gyms that were open and I went to a different state to compete and came in first place.
The biggest lessons I’ve learned a long my journey is, you can literally do whatever you set your mind to as long as you put everything you have into it and never give up and that is what I want the world to know about my brand you can go through a lot of bad things, but at the end of the day, whatever you set your mind to whatever go, that is know that you can achieve it.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Yrhiu That would be my friend David, and for starters, we would start our time in Orange County, and I would have to show him some of the beaches in specific Crystal Cove near Laguna, definitely get some food in Laguna then spend a lot of time over at Huntington Beach, then definitely we will have to check out muscle Beach in Venice. I have to show him and definitely hike Griffith park

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I will clearly have to say my mom by far also my dad my family, Popop my brothers my other brother David. My coach’s i have had Steve M and my current coach Kyle Wilkes. I would also shoutout my sponsor the company Prozis
