Working with Ryann has been a game-changer for my performance, body composition, and confidence. She guided me through a reverse diet, helped me build a healthy relationship with food, and provided expert nutrition strategies for both training and competition. Thanks to her, I’ve not only achieved my goals—I’ve exceeded them, feeling stronger and more empowered in every aspect of my life.

I had meaningful, thorough, and thoughtful check-ins with Coach Ryann, who was never judgmental and always had a bunch of helpful tips, from de-stressing ideas to fueling and also building my mindset.

I wanted to maintain my nutrition, energy levels, and strength as I returned to riding, increased my training, and while traveling and competing in the Olympic Qualifying Series.

Not only did I achieve the weight loss goal we aimed for but I did so without compromising on athletic performance or sleep quality! Another unexpected win was learning a bit of intuitive eating as well so I don’t feel chained to tracking forever.

Having coach Whit in my corner for the hardest 3 months of training I’ve ever done was such a game changer for me, mentally and physically. The experience has taught me so much and I’m beyond grateful for the knowledge I can take forward into future training goals.

I’ve lost nearly 15 pounds and had so many achievements in the gym, like PRs & RXing workouts I never thought I could. I have a healthier relationship with food, but most importantly I can say that I truly love myself.

This was my best performance ever for an Ironman 70.3! I took almost an hour off my total time for this PR and actually had FUN throughout the race.

For YEARS I thought I was a binge eater… but I’m realizing I was never fueling my body the way it needed to be.

This challenge has helped me create healthier habits all around. I sleep better, I eat better, I feel energized and confident! I also recognize it’s not about perfection. It’s about making lifestyle changes that are sustainable for me.

I've been fully vegan for as long as I've been an athlete. I was hesitant to sign up for nutrition coaching for a long time because I felt like someone would judge me and that I would be considered less of an athlete for not compromising on what I eat. Black Iron Nutrition and Morgan never made me feel that way.

Thank you for your continued guidance through this ultra journey I have found myself on. I really feel like a legit athlete and now I am performing like one too! It is cheesy, but I get emotional thinking about how things have worked out, and that careful planning and hard work can actually make some big results. Thank you so much for being a big part of that.

Black Iron Nutrition took my athletic performance, as a weightlifter, to the next level. The amount of attention to detail and refining what I thought would be "enough," completely enhanced my ability to perform at a lower body weight.

I learned how to foster more mental toughness. I learned how to set better goals. I learned how to periodize my training when mountaineering goals and gym phases/goals don’t always align. The last week of the challenge I returned from Mt. Whitney and got my first invitation to the Age Group Quarterfinals. This has been a great 12 weeks!

I joined the performance challenge to enhance my running goals. Despite initial challenges and international travel, I learned to be flexible with nutrition. This journey taught me adaptability, how to have a positive mindset, and the importance of various metrics in measuring progress. I’m grateful for the support of my coach in helping me achieving both physical and mental growth.

To say that the 12 week challenge was life changing isn't a stretch for me, because it really has been. I appreciate the fact that you put this out there with different options. It gave me a lot to think about before I really committed to the performance side of things. And it's a decision that I'm so happy I made.

When I started working with Amanda, I quickly learned how to shift my mindset about nutrition and performance. Over the course of 3 months, my body transformed and I found myself feeling the strongest I have been thanks to both the nutrition and training programs.

I joined Black Iron Nutrition as a performance client when I first started competing because I knew no amount of training would outperform the wrong nutrition plan. I chose BIN because of the impressive coaching team and how their mission focuses on clients as individuals and embodies everything positive about the health and fitness industry.

As my goals have changed from solely CrossFit performance to now bodybuilding and aesthetics, my coaches have been right alongside me, supporting me in making changes to begin seeing results. And with their help, I have been able to balance life better. While juggling a busy schedule as a college student, I am still seeing improvements in the gym weekly. Without BIN and my coaches, I don't think I would be where I am performance-wise, and most importantly, mentally.
