Cam Matthews

Welcome! I am Cam. I was born in the Bronx and raised in Upstate New York, where I resided with my parents, 2 older siblings, and a twin sister. Sports was always a part of my life. I started playing soccer at the age of 8, and ran track in both middle school and high school. I was very shy and didn't attend many school dances or prom. At the age of 18, I moved to Florida with a buddy of mine and started life in a new environment. In 2007, my son Jayden was born, and my life became richer for it. I strive to instill in him an appreciation for, and an awareness of the importance of, physical activity to one's health and well-being. In January, 2009, at the age of 24, I joined the U.S. Army and was soon deployed to the Middle East to fight in Operation Iraqi Freedom. It was during this time that I transformed my body by gaining mass and shedding fat. I became the go-to guy among my fellow soldiers who were looking for fitness and fashion tips.
