Daniel's Achievements

Daniel earned his first Pro Card in 2020 through the NPC, before taking time away from the stage to focus on his growing family and raising his three beautiful children. In 2025, Daniel made a powerful return to competition. His first show back resulted in an exceptional achievement—winning the Mr Universe Australia Overall Title and being awarded his IFBB Pro Card. This milestone solidified his standing as one of Australia’s top athletes and highlighted his commitment to mastering his craft.

Muscle Lab Philosophy

At Muscle Lab, we guide everyone from lifestyle clients and beginners to amateur and professional bodybuilders. No matter your goal, our approach is built on experience, structure, and results.


We focus on the fundamentals of training and nutrition, applied consistently and progressed intelligently. Programs are personalized to your goals — whether that’s improving health, building a stronger, more muscular physique, or preparing for the stage. For bodybuilders, we prioritise muscle growth, symmetry, and conditioning, while still respecting long-term health and recovery.


Sustainable results come from understanding the process, not chasing shortcuts. Our clients are coached to train with purpose, fuel their bodies effectively, track progress, and build habits that last. Whether you’re just starting out or chasing pro-level results, Muscle Lab provides professional guidance, accountability, and a clear path to reaching your potential.


Train with intent. Build consistency. Progress with purpose.
