Welcome to Spartan Physiques. I’m Ryan Colucci, and my mission is to guide people on their fitness journeys. Everyone has their own story arc and reasons for pursuing fitness, and here’s mine.

In my early years, I struggled with low self-esteem and mental health difficulties, which kept me silent in times where I had to stand up for myself. Often led to bullying because of my skinny stature. Now, Confronting bullies was a terrifying ordeal as a shy kid, and those experiences were tough. During the years, I dealt  with anxiety and depression, which contributed to poor eating habits and weight gain. I realized a change was necessary, and    the gym became my sanctuary where I could confront past issues.  That epiphany was a turning point.

I started weightlifting with a simple barbell set, embarking on a  five-year journey of trial and error and self-discovery. I also got interested in combat sports. Boxing intrigued me, and I learned essential performance skills through sparring, one-on-one training, and eventually participating in a few amateur fights. By building muscle, losing fat, and achieving a combat-ready physique,               I gained mental, physical, and emotional strength, along with increased confidence and clarity.

Spartan Physiques is more than just a workout program; it’s a community dedicated to growth through teamwork and embracing new opportunities. Together, we tackle challenges, step by step, punch by punch, and round by round. I’ve realized how hard it is to do it by yourself, and this journey is often shared with true comrades by your side. I’m here to guide you on this very path.
