Dara Whitlock Coaching

Strength coaching at Anvil Works, Ketterby, and online

A training week you can see, and a coach who answers every check-in.

I'm Dara Whitlock. I write your programme each week, you log every set in the app, and every Sunday you tell me how it went. I answer within two days and the next week is built from it.

What clients say

Six months in, I pulled 90 kg off the floor for the first time. The replies after each check-in are why I kept turning up.

Online client, Ketterby

The log shows the load going up week to week, so I stop guessing what to lift on a tired day.
