volume 2
Hi! I’m Ryan
I have spent the last 18 years in the fitness
industry, with a primary focus on functional
fitness. In 2010 I trained with the U.S. Olympic
Skeleton and Bobsled Team, qualifying for
Olympic Trials in both sports. I have also
competed at CrossFit Regionals seven times.

I created the interval bodybuilding trend (HIIB),


Buddybuilding, and I operate some of the biggest
nutrition challenges on social media including:
Carb Cycling, Keto Cycling, and Intermittent
Fasting.
My workout programs have recently been part
of the physical fitness protocols for the U.S.
Military, used by large corporations, and have
helped thousands of gym owners and individual
athletes around the globe.
Besides competing and creating programming,
I host one of the largest podcasts in health and
fitness called “Real Chalk”, I have a rapidly
growing YouTube channel, and I also currently
own and operate Chalk Performance Training
(considered the MECCA of functional fitness).

About this program
No gym membership? Stuck at home? Traveling with no access
to equipment? That’s no excuse to dodge a workout! In fact, some
of the leanest people I have ever met just follow bodyweight
routines and the last time I checked, those Greek statues weren’t
exactly created with barbells and machines. They did a ton of
bodyweight training! But what’s the first thing you see when you
search bodyweight training? It’s typically a workout that consists of
2-3 of the easiest movements you’ve ever seen, followed by a rest
break that you don’t even need, and then before you know it... You
hate it! It doesn’t give you results. You don’t believe in it. And now
you’ve given up on your fitness journey.
So..
My goal was to make a bodyweight program so challenging that you
feel like you went to an actual gym and got your butt kicked! How-
ever, no equipment is needed, every day is significantly
different, and the workouts are just downright fun!
I can almost guarantee that you’ll be asking your friends to join
you - family members, parents, kids, and you might even be getting
on a video call with someone across the world to team up with you.
Get ready to be strangely addicted to bodyweight training!
Equipment needed:
1.) Yourself
2.) A partner for some workouts

You’re all done!
There’s a few places to go from here. You can decide to try
another volume of this book or you can try a new training style
all together (I have several). Just depends on how you’re feeling
and what goals you have going forward. I highly suggest
however, making your diet your number one priority. If you feel
like you’ve currently plateaued in making changes to your body,
I can almost guarantee that your diet is the culprit. My carb
cycling and keto cycling protocols have changed the bodies of
tens of thousands of people and are undoubtedly my most
popular programs.
