“I've known Malcolm for a little over a year now, and our coach/athlete relationship started off unprecedented - getting injured after a week and having to pull out of a meet. However, even though we'd barely worked together, Malcolm remained in my corner as a supporter and a good friend over the next year. When I eventually fully recovered and set out to compete again, Malcolm generously offered to coach me for free, and with his help, experience, and guidance, I went on to have the best meet of my life and take home 5 state records - which I couldn't have done without his support. After the meet, I decided to keep working with Malcolm after seeing what he was able to provide me on meet day, and since then I've experienced nothing short of excellence. My lifts exploded - my bench used to fall so short of my squat and deadlift, but with Malcolm's programming and cues I've felt like an incredible presser, and it boosted my squat and deadlift too. Most importantly, Malcolm possesses something everyone should strive to find in a coach: full belief and confidence in someone's potential. He believed in me and supported me when I didn't even have a chance to prove myself on the platform. If you want a coach who is dedicated to discovering your ceiling in this sport, look no further.”

“When I started working with Malcolm I was severely injured, battling sciatica back pain and coming off a herniated disc. Malcolm built me all the way back up, brick by brick. My deadlift when I first came back was around 425lb - after about two months working with him, my body fully returned to 100%, and I've built back up to a 510lb deadlift at 149-150lbs bodyweight, still with room to grow. My bench is coming back too, and I trust him to keep building me up over the long run. Powerlifting is a long game, and Malcolm and I will keep building my total together for a long time. As for the person he is - his communication is excellent, and if there's ever a time he can't respond right away, he always gives notice in advance. He's a very genuine person who cares about his clients and wants all of us to succeed. His programming system is top-tier, and I'm truly grateful to have him as my coach. All lifting aside, he's a great person who always has my best interest at heart. We're now chasing a 600lb deadlift and a mid-400s squat, and I can't wait to see what the future holds.”

“I've been working with Malcolm for about three years. When I started my fitness journey, I was at my heaviest weight and had no prior athletic training - my goal was just to get stronger and lose weight. He taught me how to become a powerlifter, and I fell in love with the sport. His expertise, enthusiasm, and support paved the way for me to feel confident in my abilities. His knowledge and background were pivotal in our training, and he always encouraged me to strive for more. Even on days when I felt at my lowest and wanted to give up, his commitment to our training program and my wellbeing always came first. I'm so thankful I met Malcolm, and grateful to keep working with him toward new goals.”

“I started working with Malcolm in 2023. I came to him overweight and pre-diabetic with high blood pressure. Within the year, he helped me lose weight, balance out my diet, and build muscle - and through his programming and nutrition guidance, he helped me reverse my health problems. Partway through, I told him I needed new goals, because I didn't want to just walk into the gym week after week moving weight around with no purpose. Naturally, he brought me into the world of powerlifting and helped change my lifestyle. Together we've honed my goals and put a purpose to my training that's transcended into every part of my life. We've completed two powerlifting meets together, with a third already on the calendar. I continue to burn fat, enjoy my food, and add weight to all my lifts. With this new way of living, I can finally have my cake and eat it too!”

“This wonderful coach of mine completely changed how I view training. I've only been competing for a short amount of time, so he's the first coach I've had. It gave purpose to my training - following a plan and recording my sets - and it was sort of stress-free training like this because I didn't have to really think about what I was going to do. He changed my technique a lot. I was pretty clueless on what good technique even was, and he was a big help, even though it was uncomfortable at first. Still a work in progress, but he's been helping me realize that the numbers in your head don't really matter - it's about how you feel on the day and the best you can do. He's completely understanding of external factors that may get in the way, such as work or family stuff, which takes a lot of stress off of me.”

“Working with Malcolm has been one of the best decisions I've made for my powerlifting journey. His coaching has not only helped me get stronger, but it's also given me a much deeper understanding of the sport and what it takes to succeed. He's easy to work with, always willing to answer questions, and genuinely cares about helping his athletes reach their goals. If you're looking for a coach who's knowledgeable, supportive, and invested in your success, I can't recommend Malcolm enough.”

“To say that Malcolm was the best handler I've ever had the experience of working with... would be pretty spot on. I've competed at several meets, and handled some of my friends, so I'd like to think I know what to look for in a spotter. I felt completely supported at every step of the meet, which lasted 5 hours, and when Malcolm had another athlete in the flight directly before mine. Every warmup timed, every cramp addressed - Malcolm believed in me more than I believed in myself when he was making attempt selections. This was the first meet I've ever made all of my final attempts, and I walked away with a 47.5 kilo total PR. Those results should speak for themselves.”
