What you get

Coaching that meets you where you are

No cookie-cutter programs. Every client gets a movement assessment, custom programming, weekly check-ins, and a coach who actually answers messages.

Custom programming

Plans built around your schedule, goals, and old injuries, delivered through the CoachRx app.

Strength & CrossFit

Real strength work plus CrossFit-style conditioning for performance you can actually feel and use.

Mobility & injury-aware

Move better, train pain-free. Mobility and breathwork are programmed in, not bolted on.

In-person or remote

The Gym Pod on Dearborn for South Loop Chicago, or fully remote via CoachRx anywhere in the world.

Wins

Real results from real clients

"I've been working with Ryan for over a year. He always finds the right balance of exercises to help me build strength without exhausting my system. Sessions include thoughtful combinations of cardio, weights, and breathwork, care that comes from paying attention to the smallest details. And sessions are fun, too."

Maria G.

"Ryan is the most thoughtful trainer I have ever worked with. He is extremely skilled at figuring out the reasons why I fail to make progress in certain movements and crafting a specific way to work with that. My squat and deadlift improved dramatically while training with him."

Daniil R.

"Working with Ryan has been terrific. I really value his perspective on developing foundations in lifting and using key flexibility exercises and breathwork to improve form and power. He is very kind and able to work around busy schedules. I have grown stronger and healthier with his coaching."

"I've dropped over forty pounds in the year I've worked with Ryan. He developed a program to meet my needs and rehab from injury. He's very knowledgeable, and challenges me to improve at a pace that is manageable for my abilities."

Kwaku O.

Coaching client

"Ryan is a very experienced personal trainer and a great all-around guy. He has a solid training methodology from warm-up to weight lifting, cardio, and stretching. I learned a lot from him and he greatly improved my strength, breathing, and flexibility."

Jordan K.

Coaching client

"Ryan has helped me conquer each of my fitness goals and keeps me motivated and locked in. His knowledge of training is unparalleled, from exercise selection to rehab, mobility, and recovery. He is on top of his game."
