1:1 online coaching with Alex L Dory
I started with
the body you
have right now.
There was no shortcut and no genetics story. There was a plan that fit my gym and my week, and someone checking whether it was actually working. That is what you get here.
- A plan written for your gym, not mine
- Calorie and macro targets from food you already eat
- Weekly check-ins that change the plan, not just cheer you on


Proof, not promises
This is my before and after.
Not a stock photo I bought. Left is me before I knew what I was doing. Right is what a few years of the boring stuff looks like: a program that progressed, enough protein, and not quitting in week three. I am not going to sell you a shortcut I never took.
- Progressive overload that is written down, so you know what a good session looks like before you walk in.
- A nutrition target you can hit on a normal week, built from food you already eat.
- Years, not weeks. Anyone promising you a new body in thirty days is selling you the restart you have already paid for twice.
Who you are hiring
I am not a fitness influencer. I am the person who reads your check-in.
I started training because I was tired of being the smallest person in every room I walked into. Nothing about it was natural. I spent the first year doing what the internet told me and going nowhere, and the years after that learning how a training block is actually structured, how much I really needed to eat, and how to keep going on the weeks it stopped being fun.
That is what I coach now. Not motivation, not a hype reel, and not one plan copied across every client. You get a program built for your body, your equipment and the days you can genuinely train, and a coach who looks at your numbers every week and changes something when they stop moving.
I coach online, so where you live does not decide who trains you. If you can film a set and send a weight, we can work together.

Personal trainer and online coach
How coaching works
Three things decide whether your physique changes. Coaching runs all three at once.
Most people are not lazy, they are running one lever well and two badly. You can train hard and eat like a student. You can eat perfectly and train without a plan. On your own you find out which one broke six months too late.
Training built around your gym
Your program is written against the equipment you actually have and the days you can actually train. Every lift carries a target load and rep range, so progress is a number you can see instead of a feeling you are chasing.
Nutrition you can repeat
Calories and macros set to your goal and built from food you already eat. No banned list, no separate meals from the rest of your household, no eating the same chicken and rice until you quit in week five.
Weekly check-ins that change the plan
You send photos, bodyweight and your logged lifts. I read the trend rather than one bad day, then move training volume or calories before you stall. That adjustment loop is the actual product. Everything else is paperwork.
Progress is not a feeling. It is a number that moved this week.
Step 01
Apply
Two minutes. Your goal, your training history, and what has gone wrong the last time you tried.
Step 02
Consultation call
We go through your schedule, your gym, any injuries, and what you will realistically stick to on a bad week.
Step 03
Your plan lands
Training block, nutrition targets and a check-in format, all written for you. Nothing pulled off a shelf.
Step 04
We adjust, every week
Your numbers get reviewed weekly and the plan moves with you. You are never running a stale program.

Before you apply
The questions people actually ask me.
Still not sure it fits you?
Put it in the application and I will answer it directly instead of guessing.
Ask me on the applicationI have never followed a proper program. Am I too much of a beginner for this?
Beginners get the fastest results, because everything is new stimulus. Your first block will be simpler than you expect. The point of starting with a coach is that you learn the movements and the habits correctly the first time, so you never have to spend a year undoing them.
My gym is basic, or I train at home. Does that rule me out?
No. You list your equipment on the application and the program is written against it. A pair of dumbbells and a bench builds a serious physique if the progression is right. What you cannot fix with equipment is a program that never progresses.
How long until I actually see a change?
Strength usually moves inside the first few weeks, because your technique and effort improve quickly. Visible physique change takes longer and depends heavily on where you are starting from. I would rather set that expectation now than sell you a thirty-day claim you have already bought once.
Do I have to give up the food I like?
No. Your targets are built around food you already eat, not a list handed down from someone else's diet. There is no banned list and you are not cooking separately from everyone else in your house. A plan you resent is a plan you quit.
What happens if I miss a week?
You tell me at the check-in and we adjust. Missed sessions, holidays and bad weeks are normal and the plan is built to absorb them. Nobody starts over because of one week. That instinct to restart from zero is what has been costing you the last few years.
Why pay for this when there are free programs everywhere?
A free program does not know your gym, your schedule, your injuries or your progress. It cannot tell you to add weight this week or pull a set back because your recovery is gone. The coaching is the adjustment, not the document.
How does payment work and what am I committing to?
Nothing is charged when you apply. We speak first, I confirm what I can realistically get you, and the pricing and terms are agreed on that call before anything starts.
I am not in your country. Does that matter?
No. Coaching runs online, so check-ins, program delivery and messaging work wherever you train.
Next step
Tell me where you are now.
The application takes about two minutes. If what you want is not something I can coach properly, I will tell you that instead of taking your money.
- No payment and no card details at this stage
- You get a straight answer on whether coaching fits your situation
- If it is not a fit, I will point you at what is
