August's Athlete Of The Month

Time to highlight one of our spectacular athletes! What makes up an Athlete of the Month? Not RX’ing every workout or lifting the most weight. This athlete exhibits consistency and a hard work mentality. Every time they come to the gym they have a good attitude and give their all. This person is also welcoming of others, helping make H Dub the best community there is. Each month we choose a different athlete and post some fun facts about them to help y’all get to know them better!


Ryan is for sure "Mr. Consistency". However, his attendance is not the only consistent thing about him, he is also consistently one of the nicest dudes in the gym. Always happy to see you and ask how you are. His willingness to learn has allowed him to develop skills, like the kipping pull-up and toes-2-bar, rather quickly. This honor is well deserved. Keep it up, Ryan!

Tell us a little bit about yourself: I'm a pretty normal dude who loves to play golf and loves food. I'm a huge Auburn fan, and I really enjoy traveling and working out/bettering myself.

What were your goals when you started training? Trying to build more muscle and challenge myself in different ways when it came to working out. Also gaining more confidence with barbell lifting.

How long have you been at H Dub and how did you get into it? About 11 months now. My wife convinced me after her coworker raved about it, and I'm glad she did!

What is your favorite/least favorite thing we do in training?

Favorite: Any sort of bench press

Least favorite: Overhead squats..my shoulders aren't built like that yet

How has H Dub positively affected you? It has helped me gain a lot more confidence in terms of lifting and what my limits are. Those limits keep changing every week!
