“If more training fixed plateaus, you’d be improving by now.”
Most fighters who plateau do the same thing: they add volume. More rounds, more roadwork, more reps.
For a while it works because almost anything works for a while. Then it doesn’t. The plateau returns, and now you’re tired on top of stuck.
I was an engineer before I was a coach. Engineers don’t add force to a broken system; they find the constraint and remove it.
Over nearly three decades coaching more than a thousand fighters across 95 countries, I’ve seen this same pattern repeat every time.
This consultation call is a diagnosis session. We find your constraint. Then we build the shortest path from where you are to where you’re trying to go.
You walk away with a specific intervention: the minimum effective dose, in the right sequence, applied to the right problem, built for your schedule.
Your training hours are finite. Spend them on the thing that actually moves the needle.
“Don Heatrick is a special case because he has been in the trenches as an athlete and spent his life towards studying athletic development from the greats as well. I can assure you that his training principle and programs are well thought out and filled with both experience and research.”

Consulting Call with Don Heatrick
The call addresses whichever performance system is limiting you. Physical, tactical, or psychological. A deficit in any one collapses your Muay Thai performance.
Wherever you’re starting from, you walk away with a specific diagnosis and an action plan built for your situation. The right intervention, in the right sequence, at the right dose.
I offer a limited number of Zoom consultations each month.

Meet Your Coach
Don Heatrick
I started fighting at 32. I had no coach, no corner, and no proper ringcraft. By 34 I was selected for England. By 40 I was UK ranked #4, beating fighters half my age.
Before coaching, I spent nearly two decades as an engineer, designing broadcast systems for the BBC and ABC. That mindset never left. I approach Muay Thai performance the same way I approached engineering: find the constraint, apply the smallest effective intervention, test the result.
Over nearly three decades, I’ve coached more than a thousand fighters across 95 countries. I host a podcast, run a YouTube channel, and build evidence-based programs for fighters who train on limited hours and need maximum return from every session.
