Daniel is the reason South West Strength exists. Currently, a full time Firefighter in the south west of WA, Dan's extra time is spent preparing for the next Strongman event, and training others who want to improve their strength and technique. 

​

"I got into Strongman in 2017 when I lived in Manjimup. Back then there weren't any gyms south of Perth that had Strongman equipment, so I had to buy or make my own. That year I entered my first novice competition and fell in love with the sport." 

​

In March 2021, Dan started Southwest Strongman - to provide athletes with competitions, pathways to national events, and to bring the sport to the south west. 

 

The following year this evolved to become South West Strength - a home for strength sports and training. 

​

South West Strength encourages people of all skill levels to have a try in their fully equipped gym. 

​

And if you're interested in becoming a Strongman yourself, Dan offers personal trainign and online coaching to help you get competition ready.
