Ryan Phillips Training and Wellness

You are in excellent hands with Ryan! He is extremely knowledgeable about the body and more importantly, the intricacies of how the muscles work. As such, when you communicate the area you want to focus on, he’ll specifically design a workout program so you can develop those muscles and/or achieve your desired weight. He’s very mindful of your limits as well as your potential! I am stronger now at 51 than in my 20s; I am close to deadlifting my own body weight which is mind blowing to me considering I used to have lower back issues. Additionally, he’s helped me specifically target muscles I use for dancing which has enabled me to take dancing to the next level with my increased strength, flexibility and endurance. I look forward to my sessions with Ryan as it’s always a fun, challenging and rewarding experience to jump start my day!

Ryan covers all the bases as both a fitness expert and trainer. Do you want to get stronger? He's got you covered. Do you want to lose weight? He's got you. Have injuries you need to work around while still seeing massive improvement? He's the guy! Very knowledgeable and walks the walk with a positive attitude.

Working with Ryan has truly made a difference on my body and mindset! He’s a very nice guy to his core, full of knowledge and you can tell he’s had years of experience in his field! He cares about his clients and puts 100% effort every session. He organizes each workout tailored to your needs. Not only do you get an excellent workout every time, I’ve definitely seen my posture change for the better. I’ve seen a lot of trainers in North County San Diego & Ryan is by far the best! Thank you!

Ryan is the best! I worked with him for years in NYC. He was very successful at helping me reach my fitness goals, and he always came to the sessions incredibly prepared with a bespoke workout routine based on my skills and progress. Ryan is also an incredible motivator with a great energy. I was new to the gym scene and he made me feel comfortable in my workouts and in the gym environment. He has a special ability to give you an incredible workout while feeling like you are hanging out with an old friend. I couldn't recommend him more!

Ryan Phillips is a phenomenal trainer and I speak from my personal experience when working one on one with him!! Whether you are a dancer looking to improve your movement, a person with injuries looking to work out again, or an older individual with a lot or no experience at all, Ryan has the knowledge to curate a personalized work out for you according to your body's needs and your personal fitness goals. On top of that he has the kindest demeanor and personality that will make you feel welcome whenever you work out with him!

Ryan was my trainer in NYC a few years back and he is phenomenal!! He helped get me back on track with my fitness routine, not just physically but mentally as well. I enjoyed our sessions, I learned so much from Ryan. He is an outstanding trainer and friend!

I have trained for several years with Ryan and could easily fill this review box with stories of encouragement, inspiration, gratitude, and success.

He is one of the best I have encountered.

Extremely knowledgeable technically, but more importantly, intuitive and agile. He understands and tunes to ones needs and goals...and meets you where you are, helping you forward.

I am not able to train with him as much as I used to but definitely look forward to the next time we can align and have a session.

I recommend Ryan wholeheartedly.

A dedicated and supportive trainer who is adaptable and innovative, always looking for solutions that work for you, personally. Ryan knows just how much to push you and get the best out of you.

I had the absolute pleasure of meeting and working with Ryan a few months prior to my wedding. He built a specialized training program for me that got me in great shape for the big day. Best of all, I actually ENJOYED our gym sessions. If you’re in the market for a highly knowledgeable, motivating, fun and personable trainer, Ryan is the guy for you!

Ryan is simply excellent. He has: the knowledge, the ability to communicate it, the physicality to demonstrate it, and the empathy to make you want to go the distance. Training and wellness are lifetime obsessions with him and not momentary stops on a career journey. He is passionate and downright fun to work with. And, Ryan listens to you. Everything he does is tailored to the individual client in strict consultation with your goals. Truly top notch.

Ryan has created some awesome custom personalized fitness programs for me and each one has been fun, versatile, and challenging!
Before creating the programs, we had a consultation to evaluate my strengths/weaknesses as well as discuss my fitness goals. From there Ryan put together a personalized fitnesses program that I am able to do all on my own.
Although I don’t train with Ryan in person, I do track all of my progress in a fitness app, which relays my progress to him. Ryan will regularly check in with me to see how things are going as well as to congratulate me on my progress/achievements. He is always eager to answer any questions I may have, as well as make adjustments if necessary.
Even from afar, he finds a way to keep me excited and motivated with all my workouts. Whether you’re looking for in-person training, virtual training, or custom personalized fitness programs, Ryan is 100% your guy!!

If you're looking for a trainer who focuses on wellbeing and progress, Ryan is the trainer for you. He definitely helped me to push myself to both make progress and further my overall health - but always within my own limits.

He is attentive and very receptive to both concerns and criticism, and overall the only trainer I would see at this point. If you have had previous injuries or are just more prone to injury, I cannot suggest Ryan enough.

I had the opportunity to train with Ryan in NYC and have nothing but good things to say about his approach to physical health and wellness.

He is a positive presence who actively takes the time to learn about his clients and craft a personalized plan to help them meet their goals. He then evolves the plan over time to make the program even more dynamic.

Ryan also finds opportunities to not only strengthen core areas in need of a little extra TLC, but that future-proof your body to protect against life’s accidents (an example being slipping and falling on ice in the winter).

In our time together I was able to meet and exceed my training goals and could not have been happier with the results. You can’t go wrong with Ryan!

Ryan is a wonderful trainer! He develops high-quality training plans catered to my needs and abilities, and works with me day by day to achieve them. You won’t meet another trainer in the business more friendly and genuine than Ryan!!

Ryan is the best! His workouts are challenging but fun, and I’ve gained both strength and a better mind-body connection through working with him. I injured my ankle in an accident at home during the first year of the pandemic, and he was invaluable in designing a program for me to keep training while rehabbing my ankle. He really knows his stuff — not just exercise, but nutrition and overall wellness as well — and I’ve learned so much from him. He has absolutely changed my life for the better, and working with him has given me more confidence in so many areas of life beyond just fitness. I took a job overseas but I’m still working with Ryan remotely because I could not imagine ever having any other trainer!

I trained with Ryan in New York for about a year until we were forced out of the gym due to the Covid pandemic. He is a dedicated and consumed trainer. One of the best I've worked with and at 79 I have had a few. Ryan reviewed my goals and my capabilities and we went to work developing and reaching my goals for strength , flexibility, and durability. Always conscious of my condition and performance. He was great to work out with and you will too. Thanx Ryan you enhanced my life.

I trained with Ryan at Equinox in NYC for a few years and he was the best. Always so professional, reliable and so passionate about helping me meet my goals. He was great when it came to guiding me with nutrition and figuring out what I needed to focus more on. He was always changing up our workouts to make them new and exciting and trying out new moves that were similar to soccer since he knew that I played. He is great at perfecting and teaching the right form when lifting and working on areas to help me lift better. All around, I cannot recommended him enough! Not to mention, such a kind person and all around great guy.

Ryan is by far the most talented and dynamic trainer I ever trained with. Not only is he an amazing trainer, but he's also a great human being to be around. He makes working out fun, rejuvenating, and exciting.

Absolutely the best money I've ever spent! Ryan is worth every penny. Truly an investment in my physical and mental health. Love how supportive he is, how available he is. Truly my internet fitness platonic boyfriend XD

Great Trainer ! I am fortunate to have Ryan on my Health and Wellness Team!
