My name is Aileen Ryan, also known as Strong Lil Pony. I am a mother of a beautiful teenage girl. I work at a major Regional Medical Center in Cardiac Rehab, as an Exercise Physiologist. For the past ten years, I have also been a personal trainer and group fitness instructor.
I am certified as a CrossFit Level 1 Trainer, as well as being certified in Barbell, Gymnastics, and Kettlebell Training, with a CF Nutrition certification to boot. I was born and raised in New Jersey, the 9th of 11 children. (ok, bring on the Irish Catholic jokes….)
Check out my gym, CrossFit Rising, we are 190′ of Pure Bad Assery. I love to train our athletes, as soon as I step into the gym I am energized and ready to give them my all. Drop us an email at 
if you're in the area, we LOVE guests!
Jack Allen is my partner in and out of the gym, he is a guest writer for PaleoChix and does nutrition consultations via phone and e-mail. This ranges from Basic Nutritional counseling to high-performance nutrition (athletes training for the Games). His ability to break down and interpret high falutin’ scientific studies, and break them down into real world practical advice is amazing. His famous Nutrition Rants continue every other Sunday.
I offer life coaching services, via our website The Goat and Pony Show. My life experiences have opened me to my calling: to help others find their true happiness, discover the beauty they have buried inside, and help them learn outward expression of inner peace and balance. As your life coach, we will work together to find the true source of your frustration, and develop real, tangible exercises that will help you achieve your goals, whatever they may be...releasing self esteem issues; Leting go of weight/body image problems; Discovering how you sabotage your success; Learning how to identify and follow your Dreams… there is no limit to the ground we can cover in coaching.
