OUR CLIENT REVIEWS

I started working with Dan and Team DW right after my first timers show in 2022. I always knew I wanted him to coach me further in my body-building journey.

From the outside, his method of coaching really stood out to me. His clients always seemed so happy and the way they would dominate the stage was really inspiring to me. I knew one day I wanted that to be me, his way of working with clients is second to none.

I have never felt out of place during my time with Dan, from the outset he always made me feel like I wasn't just a number and really took the tine to learn how I respond to a plan both mentally and physically as a first-timer.

I never had much belief in myself, all I did was follow what Dan told me to do and did it to the best of my ability.

His eye for detail is what really sets him apart in my eyes. The longer we worked together, the trust grew. He helped me through injury, gave me ways to level up my training through form feedback and never made me feel like I had let him down if I messed up one week.

I would never of thought I'd be good enough to compete last season if it wasn't for him. As my season came closer, the amount of constant communication really kept me going. His work and business standards never dropped and it shows in how I looked on stage, We came away with 3 overalls, a British title and a pro card

He made everything super easy when it came to prep and peak weeks. You already have so much going on in your head already the last thing you want to be stressed about is your plan changing through this critical stage. His methods are honestly genius and it makes for a smooth prep and a happy client!

If you want a coach who tells you it straight, doesn't mess you around and wins you swords, Dan is the mean for the job.

Joanne Watson

PCA Bikini Pro & British Champion

I came to Dan after my first season in bodybuilding with a previous coach, after a poor first prep and very poor rebound I wasn't in a good place.

Considering the position I was in to start a prep, Dan made no promises to get me on board, he says it how it is and is probably the most genuine coach out there that priorities client health over wins. I was persistent and we carried on with the prep and won my pro card.

Even though 'on paper' it was a harder prep than the previous year. It was sooo much easier!! Some how he made it feel like a breeze! Dan certainly knows how to look after his clients!

I fell back in love with bodybuilding which I'd lost from a terrible rebound, which actually scared me to reverse again after my show but Dan put me at ease the whole way through my reverse, this is where I think Dan shines as a coach, I could not have gotten through those weeks of reversing with his support He has the patience of a saint.

I am now the happiest and healthiest I have been in years.

I genuinely felt like I was his only priority and he was just as invested in my journey as me, if not more. You really feel like he has your back 110%.

Emily Cownburn

PCA Bikini Pro

I was the girl who "Could never compete". I took the leap and got 5 weeks out with a different coach before the pandemic hit and I went backwards in progress and confidence.

This was the best thing to happen to me in hindsight as it lead me to enquire with Dan.

The rest is true history Dan took me from nothing to PCA Pro Figure Champion.

Incredible eye to detail but without overwhelming me. His approach is professional yet friendly. He made bodybuilding fun & I enjoyed every part of the process. When I was down, he picked me up. When I was burnt out he pulled me back but when I was moaning he pushed me forwards.

If you are on the fence watch my YouTube prep series & you'll see just how much Dan helped me achieve 4 wins, 1 overall, 1 British title & pro card. Forever grateful so thank you DW.

Georgie Cooper

PCA Figure Pro

I joined Team DW with Dan in February 2022 with the intention of competing right away, I had never competed before Dan took me on and I can honestly say I've never looked back. His style of coaching is nonsense and effective.

I never thought I'd be able to live on meal plans and a structured training regime but here I am 32 off seasons, 2 preps and PCA pro card later loving every minute. All training plans are tailored to each client and are goal driven.

It's fair to say the results speak for themselves. His knowledge of the sport is vast and he's constantly evolving and finding the best route in a very difficult sport.

Kirsty Elliott

PCA FIGURE PRO & BRITISH CHAMPION

I have been coached by Dan for almost 4 years now, and he has taken me from stepping on the amateur stage to winning overalls and pro cards across different federations.

What I love the most about Dan's coaching methods is that they are not over complicated and yet very effective. Through both off season and prep I love every part of my plan, which for me is key in what I would want from a coach. His personalised approach and attention to detail have helped me become my absolute best; way more than my own expectations of what I was capable of.

I am so grateful for his guidance and belief in my potential from the beginning.

Kelsey Bartlett

PCA & NFMUK BIKINI PRO

I've been working with Dan for over a year and it's been nothing but smooth sailing, no BS with Dan just honest advice/guidance.

Tonnes and tonnes of experience that gets ridiculous results I mean that's all you could need in a coach if you ask me!

Took me from amateur to PCA pro in under 9 months. I honestly couldn't recommend Dan enough been pleasure working with him and look forward to the future.

Sophie Sands

PCA WELLNESS PRO

Putting my full trust Dan to guide me through my prep was the best thing I ever did. His knowledge and experience is undeniable. I went on to achieve 2 pro cards and a Miss Universe title which I never thought possible.

I only have positive things to say about Dan as a coach, he truly cares about his clients and you're always guaranteed a bit of humour along the way!
