Early days of Sweat Elite he basically did 0 work and bullied everyone to take over the company once there was some success.
He followed this by plagiarizing workouts of athletes all over the world. He would read something on Twitter or another site and copy to his site. No consent. He got caught doing this and layed low for a while.
Following that he left Australia because he had a falling out with some of the athletes on Melbourne TC and was banned from working with them. So he left Australia, came to flagstaff and caused some problems there with a coach and some others.
Following closely after living in Boulder he still had a girlfriend back in Australia that lived with him. But then he started dating/intercourse with a woman on Roots, a woman in Lee’s group and 2 others simultaneously. Causing all sorts of problems arguing with them and causing stress. So obviously these coaches started to ban him.
Once he was caught and banned from these groups he continued his most toxic behavior of cyber bullying people through e-mail and any sort of media he can use after being blocked repeatedly. All sorts of threats, legal threats, blackmail lies, insults about men’s wives etc., references to how big his channel is and how much exposure they’ll lose out on so they better not cross him. The cyber bullying lasted for months. Once this word got out and he was banned from every elite group in boulder he latched on to Ric Rojas.
This behavior is not limited to just runners or girlfriends either. It happens with friends from home. There seems to be something seriously wrong in his mind.
Now he goes to the UK and continues the same pattern. He linked up with Nick for a cheap place to crash and a way to get into the online coaching gig and learn how it’s done. Then after just a few months he burned that bridge too and attacked him over the internet as well. Poor Nick probably trusted him. Like a previous poster said “people in the UK are already tired of his bullying tactics”.
One asks, is he conning people, going on in with the intention of using and throwing away genuinely nice people who just wanted to help and then leaving a mess behind; or is it a mental disorder? I’m not sure. Narcissistic personality disorder seems to the the leading theory.
There’s reasons he skips to a new country every few months. There’s a reason he’s single at his age and has been.There’s a reason a guy like Lee Troop who refuses to be intimidated or bullied and has a major profile in this sport is willing to put his reputation out there and publicly speak about this menace. There’s also a reason he has a 1.8 trust pilot score.
He will certainly either report this or chime in here and start lying. Narcissists tend to do this as they can’t help themselves when being spoken ill about.
I have no dog in this fight. Just reporting the facts as I don’t want to see anyone else taken advantage of or bullied.
Its clear a few others on this thread know all this but are afraid to stand up to the bully, except Lee.
Everyone has had enough Matt.
