“A leader is somebody who wants someone else to have success and
helps them get there.” - Matt Cubbler
Matt Cubbler has always lived a life of sacrifice and
dedication to others. From serving in the U.S. Army after
9/11, to working as one of Pennsylvania’s most renowned police
officers, to donating his time speaking to teens and young
adults about the importance of leadership in their lives, he has
devoted his life to helping others through both his
professional and personal life.
To him these things come naturally. Because after growing up
as the son of a single mother and the brother of a mentally
disabled teen who was often picked on, Cubbler always knew it was
his calling to serve others. A month after graduating
from high school, Cubbler’s brother Andy died in a violent car
accident. That moment would end up becoming the single most
impactful moment in his life.
While he excelled academically in high school and had an
opportunity to attend one of the four major military
academies, he decided he was needed elsewhere and chose to
enlist in the United States Army and served for four years as
an Intelligence Analyst. His Army tour of duty took him from
Augsburg, Germany to the Persian Gulf War.
After leaving the military as a highly decorated soldier,
Cubbler began his career in law enforcement. Throughout his
career, he has worked in almost every facet of law enforcement –
uniformed patrol, investigations, under-cover narcotics, and
SWAT. Shortly after “9/11,”, he answered the call to,
once again, protect America against Islamic Extremists who
were inflicting terror all over the world. He was one of only
a few thousand select individuals (out of over 900,000 applicants)
to be hired by the newly formed United States Federal Air Marshal
Service.
In 2006, Cubbler returned to local police work and he
published a memoir that detailed his life with his brother
entitled A Brother’s Love: A Memoir. In 2008, to help raise money
for charities established in his brother’s name, he ran 78.8
miles across the state of New Jersey. His level of love and
commitment to keeping his brother’s name and story alive has
inspired thousands across the country.
In 2009, Cubbler got bit by the entrepreneurial bug and he
launched his first company MaxOut, a unique fitness brand that
owns a unique piece of patented strength training technology and
owns and operates one-of-a-kind gyms utilizing this same
technology. Over the past eight years, while still working
full-time as a police officer, he has built MaxOut into a
national brand that has helped thousands of people achieve
strength and fitness levels unseen in the fitness
marketspace.
Today, Cubbler is still a full-time police officer, the COO of
MaxOut and a sought after public speaker who captivates his
audiences through his personal story of struggle and triumph, his
leadership training program based on his experiences as a
soldier and his law enforcement officer and most importantly
his life living with his best friend and brother whose life
and death has inspired all that he has accomplished since that
fateful day when Andy died in 1989.
