ABOUT

Owned and operated by Daniel Coughlin, MBA, NSCA-CPT, Orthodox Training is designed to help a wide range of individuals with unique goals from all different walks in all different stages of life. From proper technique and dietary recommendations to exercise planning and structure, our service delivers education to clients. Orthodox delivers results while empowering the client to build and maintain the necessary skills to keep progressing and living their best life.

​

Orthodox is the result of 20 years of experience as a weight lifter, NCAA college athlete, half-marathon runner, life-long learner, and proud husband and father. Daniel began his own fitness journey two decades ago and in that time has fallen in love with helping others see the same changes he experienced. Daniel takes the same tried and true principles of modern, evidence-based training and dietary recommendation practices and applies them to himself and his clients to go beyond adding years to life by also seeking to add life to years.

​

Daniel went from sedentary and obese to NCAA athlete (three-year letter winner in wrestling), distance runner (completed multiple half-marathons), life-long student (MBA and NSCA-CPT), and avid weightlifter. He brings the same enthusiasm he experiences in his own practices to each and every client that he works with.

​

When he's not at the gym, he spends his time working on passion projects related to music, coffee, and German soccer. He lives in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, with his beautiful wife, three children, and their dog.
