Ryan grew up playing many team sports including soccer, baseball, basketball, football, track, and swimming. However, It was not until after college, when Ryan fell into a bit of a depression and gained a significant amount of weight, that he truly fell in love with all things fitness, nutrition, and wellness.  Having personally felt the incredible difference taking care of your mind and body can make, Ryan knew he had found is new career. 

After getting NASM certified and training clients in various gyms throughout Rhode Island, Ryan joined Ocean State Crossfit in 2012, became immediately hooked, and in 2013 received his Crossfit Level 1 certification. 

With the knowledge of having gone through his own journey, organizing many weight loss challenges, and boot camps, Ryan continues to receive incredible life changing results with clients, and is proud to be the spearhead of The Ironclad Wellness Program.
