Greg Ripley

Certified Personal Trainer // Fitness Nutrition Specialist

 
 

I am a Certified Personal Trainer, as well as a Fitness Nutrition Specialist.  My fitness background includes having been involved in the sport of powerlifting since I was a teenager.  In that time I competed, and set numerous records, at the local, state, national and world levels. Through many years of rigorous training and sacrifice, I have learned best practices in training methodologies, recovery techniques, and optimal nutrition.   These skills can be applied to any fitness level or objective. While being very accomplished in this sport, I understand that this is MY personal goal - but that we all have different objectives in our pursuit of wellness.  Whatever your goal, the point is to identify what success means to you and then develop a plan to achieve it!!

Prior to opening World Class Wellness & Fitness, I was very successful in the business world.  I have a degree in accounting, a masters degree in taxation, and a law degree. Throughout my career I have worked in several “Big 4” accounting and consulting firms, large corporations, small and mid-level accounting firms, and also as an entrepreneur.   

I left my career as a senior manager at a big 4 consulting firm in 2015.  At the time, my brother was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer and I wanted to spend as much time as possible with him and help him through his cancer treatments.  Sadly, my brother succumbed to his disease in January of 2018.

Since that time, there has been a shift in my focus, and I want my life to be about helping people. Part of that mission is to assist as many people as I can to become their best selves, using my extensive experience and knowledge of training and nutrition. Starting World Class Wellness & Fitness is the fulfillment of that dream – to Positively Impact Your Holistic Quality of Life!!
