Meet your coach

The coach behind every plan

Dan Watson is the founder and head coach of Team MBD. He competes himself, coaches natural and assisted athletes across every category, and still reviews every single client's check-in personally.

His rule is simple: the plan fits the client, not the other way round. Understand the person, build around their life, then back every decision with evidence instead of bro science.

03 / The method

How coaching works

The MBD way

Four stages. Same for a first-timer chasing a pro card and a lifestyle client who wants to look and feel their best.

Stage 01Understand

Understand you

Goal, training history, lifestyle, schedule, the food you actually eat. We take the time to get this right, because everything else is built on it.

Stage 02Build

Build the plan

Fully custom training, nutrition and supplementation. Every part of it is there for a reason and backed by evidence, not trends.

Stage 03Adjust

Check in, adjust, repeat

Weekly check-ins with Dan: photos, numbers and how you're feeling. Changes get made when they're needed, with WhatsApp support in between.

Stage 04Beyond

Goal day and beyond

Competitors get show-day prep. Everyone gets a plan for what comes after the goal, because the long game is the point. No crash, no rebound.

04 / What's included

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

  • Weekly check-ins with DanEvery week, every client. Adjustments made on what the data says.
  • Fully custom trainingBuilt for your body, your split and your schedule. Not a template.
  • Nutrition & supplementationPlanned around your goal and your life, and adjusted as you go.
  • WhatsApp supportDirect line to Dan between check-ins. Questions get answered.
  • The Team MBD communityYou join a team, not a mailing list. People on the same road, backing you.
  • Show-day prep for competitorsTanning, skin prep, posing guidance and a show-day checklist.

05 / Fit

Is this you?

Who Team MBD is for

This is for you if

  • You've got a real goal. A show, a shoot, or a physique you've been putting off for too long.
  • You'll do the work. Dan brings the plan, the support and the accountability. You bring the effort.
  • You want a plan built around your life, not a template with your name on it.
  • Natural or assisted, any category, any gender.

Not for you if

  • You're after a quick fix or a four-week miracle. Real change takes time, which is why the minimum is 3 months.
  • You're a complete beginner. Dan doesn't take beginners 1:1, but a coach on the Team MBD roster can. Apply anyway and we'll point you to the right fit.

Matthew Caunce before and after

You're actually such a legend mate. I really am grateful for you. I'm not good with the emotional stuff, but picking you as a coach is one of the best decisions I've ever made.

08 / Questions

Still sat on the fence?

How much does coaching cost?

Coaching is one set price for everyone, nobody pays more or less. We talk numbers after your application simply because I want to walk you through exactly what you’re getting first. See the value, then the price, not the other way round.

Is there a minimum commitment?

Yes, 3 months. Real change takes time, and the minimum makes sure the work that goes into building your plan is matched by enough time to see genuine results.

What’s included in 1:1 coaching?

Weekly check-ins, fully custom training, nutrition and supplementation plans, WhatsApp support and access to the Team MBD community, everything you need to reach your goals.

Do I need to be competing to apply?

Absolutely not. Dan works with lifestyle clients too. All you need is a solid goal and the willingness to make a change and work towards it.

I’m a complete beginner, can I still apply?

Dan doesn’t take on complete beginners for 1:1 coaching, but another coach on the Team MBD roster absolutely can help you. Apply and we’ll point you to the right fit.

Who do you coach?

All genders and all categories, both natural and assisted athletes.

What makes Team MBD different?

10 pro cards, 6 pro wins, 4 world titles, and every single client is coached by Dan personally. No cookie-cutter plans, ever.
