Coached by someone
who is still under
the bar.

Competitive powerlifter. Strength coach. Sports physical rehabilitation professional.

Douglas trains for the platform and coaches for it. That is the whole difference: the person writing your programming is the same person who has to execute under a loaded bar, in front of three judges, on a fixed date.

He coaches equipped powerlifting as well as raw — suit, shirt and the technical work each of them demands. He also works as a sports physical rehabilitation professional, which is why the programming treats load as something to manage rather than something to survive. Technique held to competition standard. Blocks that build on each other. Nothing improvised.

People who had never touched a barbell, lifters who want to move better and competitors preparing for CRPL and WRPF platforms all train under him — and the roster keeps growing.

175 kilos.
One of one.

Adriana Vargas is the only Central American woman to bench 175 kg at the NAPF. Douglas wrote the programming and stood behind the bar.

NAPF · women’s equipped open175 kg

Equipped bench is a technical event before it is a strength event: the shirt only gives back what the setup, the groove and the timing put into it.

That is the side of the sport Douglas has coached for years — suit and shirt work alongside raw programming, with the same weekly review as every other athlete on the roster.

Training sessions and competition attempts from athletes Douglas currently coaches.

Each athlete’s name and numbers are published once they confirm them.

CoachingMore than a program

A file is not
a coach.

Anyone can send you a training sheet. What changes your year is the person reading it back to you every week.

Personalized programming

Built around your goals, experience, schedule and progression. Written for you, in 4-week blocks.

Weekly follow-up

Your training is reviewed consistently: what you completed, how it felt, what it means for next week.

Direct communication

You stay connected with Douglas on WhatsApp. Questions get answered by the person who wrote the plan.

Adaptive coaching

Programming evolves with performance. A block that isn't working gets changed, not repeated.
