Meet Ryan Ankner

Ryan has been passionate about health and fitness since 2008 after losing 90 pounds through diet and exercise. With the help of a personal trainer, Ryan discovered how building muscle could help him feel better than he ever had before. Through this experience Ryan was inspired to train his own clients.

After 6 years of working at various fitness studios and big box gyms, Ryan was frustrated with the cookie cutter nature of corporate gym programming and the pressure to coach clients solely towards weight loss rather than holistic health. Ryan decided to branch out on his own, and in 2019 Ank Fit was born.

Ryan’s personal training approach is to put more emphasis on “personal” and the specificity that comes with designing a program for each client. To Ryan, “personal training” means that when he works with a client he is there for them 100% with their individual goals in mind.

Ryan is certified through the American Academy of Personal Training’s 300 hour program. He has obtained many additional certifications since then, including Limited Range of Motion, Gyrotonic, Titleist Golf Performance Institute, Crosscore, Power Plate, and Dynamic Stretching, among others.

Meet Meghan

Meghan is the honorary Vice President of Ank Fit. She’s especially responsible for overseeing security and grounds maintenance.

Meghan is more of a behind the scenes employee, but if you’d like the presence of a mascot to cheer you on during your workout you may make a special request.
