Ryan is knowledgeable and draws on his experience as an athlete and personal trainer to build effective, customized plans. He cares about my success and is motivating and very easy to work with. I went to a consultation at River North because was looking to get some help to get out of my routine and comfort zone with my standard weight workouts. Ryan’s program focuses on functional exercises with proper technique, which makes all the difference. I wish I had started doing these workouts a long time ago. I was missing out. I get a full workout done in under an hour. He mixes it up week to week and makes it fun. The workouts are tough but go by quick. I still do cardio - bike and run - but my new plan is definitely getting me stronger and faster. I had never used a personal trainer so that was new but I’m glad I gave it shot. I honestly can’t recommend Ryan at River North enough. If you’re just starting out or have worked out for years and have plateaued, Ryan will help you achieve your goals. More...

After two months I have already improved flexibility and strength especially in core & hip areas! This is great for a petite woman runner like me. Being new to weight training I've learned to do many exercises correctly--> every movement has a purpose & no time is wasted.Thanks Coach Ryan for your attentive and encouraging workouts! More...

I struggled mightily to get back into working out effectively after playing college baseball. I would go to the gym every day with no results. I have been going to River North for two weeks now and can already see the difference! Owner Ryan has a great attitude every session and works personally with you through each exercise. I also started River North’s nutrition, which I highly recommend. Ryan tracks meals, communicates well, and gives great food options. I can’t wait to continue progressing with River North Strength!

Ryan can train anyone. He tailors the workouts to where you are and what you need. I’m down over 20 lbs and two sizes. Plus the community is pretty sweet as well.

Had a great first session with River North Strength! Really enjoyed training and speaking with the owner. He seems very knowledgeable of the body and how it works with specific sports, and what it takes to reach your personal goals and get you feeling and looking the way you want. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone. It is the cleanest I have ever seen, well-organized, and presentable. The great vibes and music once you enter the door put you in the right mindset to workout! I would recommend River North Strength to anyone in the Richmond area. More...

Ryan is one of the most hard working people I've met. I remember Ryan as a member of the Hartford Baseball team when I was their Strength coach. He was a motivator, a leader, and an all around great person to be around. His Drive drove others to succeed! I have no doubt he can help you with any goals you may have! More...

I trained with Ryan throughout his time in Chicago. Amazing coach and overall great human being. Selfishly, I was disappointed to see him go, but happy nonetheless to see him succeed in this new adventure. Sign up and train with the best! You will not find a better strength and conditioning coach out there!!! More...

How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
We focus on creating sustainable habits around training and nutrition that can last a lifetime. There are no quick fixes- we put in focused, hard work and reap outstanding benefits through high intensity strength training and conditioning.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Knowing I can help people way beyond the scope of 1 on 1 training working for another facility. We wanted to move back east from Chicago to get started on our bigger vision- focused on sustainable healthy habits that involve training, nutrition, and overall energetic and healthy lifestyle.
Why should our clients choose you?
Outside of our facility and programs, we are all about building a community of people who WANT to be there and embrace the hard work. I hold our clients accountable and check in on them because I care about progress and them reaping the most benefit from our training.
