Tom Matt
Tom Matt is a small town Michigan boy who grew up playing baseball and football, just an average American kid. Like so many, he never took his talents seriously. Unfortunately, bad habits gave way to damaging substance addictions. He married, had a daughter, but his lifestyle led to divorce and more change.
Tom realized that he had a serious issue with alcohol and sought help to change his ways. He moved back to Michigan with his daughter and began to live the life he was meant to enjoy.
In 1999, sober and starting to build back his health, Tom reconnected with a high school sweetheart whom he married in 2001. Change begat change, and Tom enrolled at Michigan State University, earning both Bachelor and Masters degrees in Telecommunication Information Studies and Management.
Convinced that fitness leads to improved quality of life, Tom pursued a personal training certification with the National Academy of Sports Medicine. Tom also competed in the Flint All Natural Body Building contest in 2010 As a rookie competitor, he placed 3rd in the Grand Master category, utilizing only whole foods and strength training.
In 2011, Tom created “Boomers Rock” and has interviewed dozens of experts in fitness, nutrition, finance, and brain health. His mission is to help others improve their quality of life. Who better to counsel those seeking help than someone who has ventured into the darkest tunnels life offers, but has become a new man during the journey out.
