Ryan is a survivor of cancer. He was given a small percent to overcome it.  The cancer was fast acting and a long period of time with radiation and chemo treatments was endured.  His body was wasted down to almost nothing.  This cancer battle and experience is the foundation and one of the key drivers for his career.  He has spent years researching and learning about the body.  He's passionate about applying the best ways to think, eat and move.   All relating to great impacts in not only the physical but emotional aspects.

Ryan's unique career has led him to become an expert in training, sports nutrition and nutraceuticals.  He works with professional athletes and organizations.  Impower was created to take all his best practices in body compositional change and performance, so that is could be accessed by all.  He developed Impower Athletics because of his love of working with young athletes.  Teaching them how to think, eat and move for better performance in their sport but also setting them up for a lifestyle beyond sports that last forever.
