Meet Matt, one of our students for the Spring 2023 semester!
Could you please state your name, where you are going to college, what you are majoring in and when you will graduate.
"My name is Matthew Pedone. I go to the University at Buffalo, I am a senior graduating this May 2023, studying exercise science."
Why did you decide to major in Exercise Science?
"Originally when I came to college, I was a pharmacy major and was not happy with it, so I switched to exercise science. I felt it applied more to me since I’m an active person, especially in the gym, and use to play sports growing up. So having that knowledge I wanted to expand upon it and make it my full-time career."
Why did you decide to do your internship at TrainSMART Personal Fitness?
"Back in the last semester, there was this panel and Mr. Fox was there as a guest speaker. It was so unique because of the different services they have here and felt it would be a good opportunity for me to learn from the best, outside of school. This would help me become a physical therapist and definitely help me out."
What are the three most important things that you are looking to learn in your internship here?
"I’m looking to become a better coach, have more knowledge not just in exercise science but medical fitness, and have a better understanding of exercising different progressions and regressions."
What are your plans for after you graduate?
"After I graduate I want to continue my education by enrolling in a DPT program and if that doesn’t work out, I would go into a PTA program and try to enter DPT after that."
