DA Endurance Coaching
Dougal established DA Endurance Coaching in 2015, founded on the belief that coaching is about more than just writing programs. True coaching is about fostering personal growth, skillsets, technique, specific fitness components and, of course, pure enjoyment of leading an active lifestyle.
Dougal’s coaching is a product of the blend between personal experience as a top-level athlete and qualifications in sport science and endurance coaching. He believes the most effective athlete-coach relationship is one based on consistent communication. His goal is to offer one of the highest quality endurance coaching services to a limited number of multisport and triathlon competitors at any level of ability. The result is a training approach that is highly individualised, adaptable and constantly optimised to ensure true purpose and progress that is shaped around a busy life.
We invite you to apply for our coaching by clicking on the “athlete application” button below, places are strictly limited and the cost is $500/Month.
Why work with us?
When choosing DA Endurance Coaching, you will be entering into a powerful athlete-coach partnership. Centred around your specific needs, schedule and goals, your training and preparation will aim to consistently optimise your time and energy available. We understand that life is a constantly changing and evolving thing, so the training needs to be reactive and able to be modified along the way to maximise the opportunities available but also to introduce recovery in an appropriate manner throughout.
You will receive a completely individualised training program, on-going and specific feedback, guidance and education to empower you through the process.
Coaching cost: $500 per month.
