I've been playing sports all of my life and had many coaches, and many great ones at that. I…read morehonestly believe Ryan is better than all of them combined. Pure and simple, you will not find anyone who cares more about his team and his athletes than he does. If you are looking to either step on stage, or bring your body to the next level, there is literally no need to do any more research, just join team Zero Gravity. If however, you are still on the fence for some reason, here's why Ryan is hands down the best coach, there is no close second.
#1: Just look at his results: Ryan has coached hundreds of athletes (maybe even over thousand), and for those who put in the work, 100% of the time they get the results. Not even the results they wanted... results way better than they could've ever anticipated, this includes my own experience as well.
#2: This IS Ryan's life. Ryan has a true love for the sport and an equivalent love for his athletes. I know that sounds corny, but it's 10000% true. He wants you to win just as much, if not even more than you do. In a sport as grueling as bodybuilding, Ryan knows exactly how to walk the fine line of telling you to step up your game, while simultaneously recognizing that this shit is hard.
#3: Ryan's commitment level is off the charts. He has coached me over a span of two years now and I've never seen him miss any shows for his athletes. And I don't mean that he is available via text, no, I mean he literally attends the shows (from 8 AM until 11 PM) communicating with his athletes the entire time. If there is a conflict in his scheduled (two athletes on same day in different shows) he stays in full communication even when he is not physically there.
#4: He makes it simple. Obviously, bodybuilding is difficult by nature, but Ryan makes it crazy simple to follow the process. Literally, the only way to not get results is to not follow his plan by trying to make it more complex than it needs to be. Here is what I did: I shut my mouth and did EVERYTHING Ryan said, EXACTLY when he told me to do it. Period.
#5: You won't be hungry. This is not to speak negatively about other coaches out there, but the reality is many coaches starve their athletes. I'm guessing because they don't know the true science behind bodybuilding. Obviously this is not healthy, nor is it enjoyable. I NEVER felt hungry. So many guys I competed against said their coach only had them eating small portions of chicken and asparagus for months and they were constantly starving. Terrible. With Ryan and team Zero Gravity, not only do you not starve your face off, you can eat a ton of variety of food and large portions.
#6: The cost is a no-brainer. For the results that you WILL get, the cost is nothing. Please don't be fooled by other lower cost options out there. You get what you pay for, and in my opinion, the cost for Team Zero Gravity is way under priced. Sure, you will be able to find other cheaper coaching programs, but WITHOUT the results. I have several friends who went to the low cost providers and it was a joke what they brought to the stage. They wasted their time and money. Don't make that mistake.
I could write ten more pages on how much I massively respect and recommend Ryan and Team Zero Gravity, but as Ryan taught me "it's simple... just do what needs to be done." So if you have even an inch of desire to step on stage or build your body the right way, join the team immediately.
