Iron Vault's Freelance Trainers and Coaches
Ren Tipton
Hi, I'm Ren Tipton and I help people move better and get stronger. Since 2014, I have coached people of all shapes and sizes to feel empowered in themselves in and out of the gym. Our time together will be spent developing realistic goals, mastering the basics of strength training, and improving mobility. Positive changes in your body will simply be a byproduct of a training program you enjoy. Are you ready to explore what your body is really capable of?
Clay Edgin
Are you just getting started in the gym and want to build confidence and a stronger, healthier body? Maybe you're a competitive strength athlete or a recreational lifter looking to finally compete. Are you ready to build muscle and shed some fat, but you struggle with chronic pain, a nagging injury, or a hectic life schedule?
Do you want to work with a coach who has over a decade of experience yet is fun, down-to-earth, and relatable? I combine good old fashioned hard work with smart programming and the latest technology to get you pain-free, high performing, and looking and feeling your best. Let's start with a chat.
Ryan L'Ecuyer
Since the age of 9 years old Ryan has been unusually obsessed with the limits of human potential, specifically relating to muscle growth, strength, and physical output. This interest naturally led to a career as a Personal Trainer and Coach. While his passion lies primarily in hypertrophy and strength training, he is generally fascinated by the body’s ability to adapt to varying degrees of stress and enjoys the process of identifying and applying the appropriate input based on the client’s needs and goals. Professionally, Ryan has coached clients both in-person and remotely, ranging from the ages of 9-90 years old with an interest in bodybuilding, powerlifting, tennis, golf, swimming, and injury prevention/recovery.
He has appeared on multiple podcasts including Bro Research Radio, Rebel Performance Radio, and the Muscle Memoirs Podcast, and has been featured as a keynote speaker at Flo Retreat Center in Uvita, Costa Rica. In 2014, Ryan achieved Pro status as a natural bodybuilder in the INBF and recently totaled 1600+ in the USAPL.
When Ryan is not lifting weights or reading about lifting weights he can be found receiving confused looks at the local skatepark.
Now that I’m done awkwardly talking about myself in the third person, I’d like to say that I really enjoy training at FeV for the local, BS-free feel. It has a great community and energy that accommodates all levels of fitness. I am proud and grateful to take part in the growth of the Iron Vault!
Jonathan Fariello
When I was 16 the gym saved me in a lot of ways. Mainly thanks to a personal trainer and doctor who taught me working out was not about building a better body, it was about building a better life. As we worked together he showed me it was more than just physical change, it was mental change as well. Every aspect of my life improved. He inspired me to be the best version of myself.
Now I dedicate my life to do the same for other people.
I have trained everyone from college athletes, elderly clientele with debilitating illnesses, and children of all ages. The gym is a place for all. The best time to start was yesterday, but the second best time is always today!
Getting to share my experience and knowledge with people has been, and will continue to be, my greatest joy.
Iron Vault Gym provides an amazing space for growth, and has cultivated a community I am proud to be a part of.

Tony Wasicki
I was born and raised in El Paso, Tx and have been in Austin since 2009, and I have been a certified fitness trainer since 2011. Getting involved in martial arts was what sparked my fire to live a life of fitness and ultimately inspired me to live and serve a life of impacting others the way my first sensei back in El Paso impacted me.
My certifications and specialties: ISSA Certified Personal Trainer, ISSA Specilist in Fitness Nutrition, ISSA Specialist in Strength & Conditioning, ISSA Specialist in Group Fitness, ISAA Specialist in Bodybuilding, ISSA Certified Master Trainer, Certified Dynamax Medicine Ball Coach.
Aside from fitness, I love tattoos, musci, and I am a blue belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

First of all thanks to Iron Vault Gym for giving me the privilege of being part of a group of trainers where everyone are excellent trainers! This is the best gym in Austin that not only has the best training equipment but also the best customer service and the best environment.
My name is Marcos, I was born and raised in Sabinas Coahuila, Mexico where my passion for strength and fitness training began there (when I was 18 years old, I am currently 31), and since 2016 I moved to Austin to work as a trainer (I really love it) and where I also met the love of my life.
I started as a personal trainer in 2012.
My big passion! Time flies when I'm in action. I started being an autodidactic but it is also true that many teachers and athletes have had a great impact on my knowledge, and the experience with so many clients from that year to the current date is what has most positively impacted my learning (thanks to all of you!). "The more you know, the more you realize that there is a lot to learn."
Whatever goal you want to achieve: weight loss, gain strength, build muscle mass, or simply have a good time working out in order to eliminate stress, or whatever goal, I will help and support you, I will never go against your personal wishes. I will listen to you, I will educate you, I will motivate you, I will make you discover that super power, I will give you information so that in case you want to go up to the next level, we can do it together.
I love strength training because more than lifting pounds I associate it with self-improvement, stress relief and time for myself.
I love training clients because I like to positively impact in the lives of people (mentally, emotionally, health and strength) with the ability and talent that life / universe / god has given me, not only in the moment but forever (the feeling is incredible when a client remembers you for years).
My hobbies are: Reading a lot about training and also emotional intelligence, because I like to know more about human behavior, emotions, etc. and it also allows me to know myself even more, in addition to the fact that this topic is closely related to my work as a trainer, I consider that more than knowing about training and nutrition, it is also important to understand people's emotions in order to know the most appropriate way to share knowledge with a client, "It does not matter so much what you say if it is not accompanied by an emotion, it is much more valuable how you make people feel." Spending time with my wife, with friends, running, hiking and playing ps4.
If you are ready for one of the best transformation of your life,
I have much more to say so if you want to know more just contact me.
It will be a great pleasure to meet and listen you.

My name is Megan, and I’m from Charleston, SC. I moved to Austin in 2020 to pursue my masters in Clinical Social Work at UT. Hook ‘em! I found a passion for weight training in college as a way to care for my physical and mental health.

How many times have you questioned your purpose, your abilities, your destiny? For the longest time those questioned swarmed my thoughts. My journey was quite nomadic. From my early years as a collegiate football player, to a successful career in oil and gas, to selling product for a reputable health supplement brand, to where I am today - a Personal trainer and professional sweat dealer. Each stepping stone in time held a common theme: I loved working hard, teaching others how to do the same, and creating relationships that allowed me to watch others succeed.
Lets discuss the elephant in the room. Yes, I’m 6’ 225 lbs, and often an XL shirt is too small. I can thank my “personal approach” to my dad who, at the age of 15, handed me a copy of Arnold Schwarzenegger's “How To Build a Chest Like A Fortress.” I know, cheesy, but it sparked a passion. It was then I started building my knowledge in exercise science and nutrition. Unbeknownst to me, this would be the first step towards living my purpose, capitalizing on my abilities, and achieving my destiny of educating others in fitness and nutrition.
For the past 15 years I have soaked up knowledge like a sponge. From nutrition, exercise modalities, supplements, adding muscle / losing fat; You name it, I've studied it! Just like you, I have my own physical goals. While my goals and yours may differ, it’s my passion that will show you how to attain them. I've worked with all shapes and size, men and women, young and old. The goal is constant - helping each individual achieve a mind and body that makes them healthy, happy, and self confident..

I have a background in Nutrition and Supplementation with a speciality in Data Analytics from Indiana University and am NASM certified.

In my free time, I'm keeping up with sports and fantasy football (go Bears!). I"m also a

Are you trying to get stronger, build muscle, or get back to serious training, but dealing with an injury, previous surgery, chronic aches and pains, or a body that doesn’t seem to respond well to conventional training?
I specialize in helping people bridge the gap between rehab and strength training. My approach combines over a decade of strength training experience with individualized exercise selection, biomechanics, and principles from the Postural Restoration Institute (PRI). Rather than forcing your body into a predetermined program, we’ll find the positions, movements, and loading strategies that work for your body and build from there.
Whether your goal is getting back under a barbell, building muscle, returning to a sport, or simply feeling strong and capable again, the goal is the same: train hard without ignoring the things that have been holding you back.

Noemi Matos
Fitness has been a part of my life since 2009. Over the course of the past 6 years, I really began honing in my skills, knowledge, and experience as not only a Group Fitness Coach but as Personal Trainer. I love that people are like puzzles, not every piece will fit where it looks like it should, and not everyone comes together the same way. The part of my job that I enjoy most is figuring out how exactly each individual moves, where we can work on imbalances and weakness, and turn them into not only strength gains, but the best possible quality of movement throughout your days and lives!
I have a Bachelors of Science in Biology, and worked as a Coastal Ecologist, but life had other plans when we moved to Austin! I began my journey as a Group Fitness Instructor then got recruited into the Personal Training world by people who saw my potential and attention to detail. I also did competitive Powerlifting, and have a few medals under my belt. My passion is form and technique when it comes to exercise and fitness. I want you to move to the best of your ability, whether it's recovering from an injury or just trying to max out a deadlift! As important as form is, I also emphasize recovery and hands on body release techniques and a certification in Orthopedic Myofascial Release.

My first love was yoga. I began practicing with my mom in our living room every day and night when I was 12 years old. It taught me the power of movement, meditation, and planted the seed for what would become a deep passion for physical and mental health. When I moved to Austin in 2009, I began my personal fitness journey. I fell in love with power lifting, kickboxing, Olympic weight lifting, and running — as well as the sense of pride and strength, both physical and mental, that resulted from exercising. In 2017 I became certified as a personal trainer. I knew I wanted to help people find what I had found through physical fitness, but I had no idea how much of a passion I would develop. Then I started to realize I wanted to do more for my clients than just guide them on their fitness journey. I wanted to help people eliminate chronic pain. I wanted to help people recover from injury and prevent future injuries. I wanted to help people move in ways they never thought possible or thought they had lost forever. In 2021 I went back to school to earn a bachelor’s degree in exercise and sports science at Texas State University. I had the opportunity to intern at a physical therapy outpatient clinic for the last semester of my degree where I learned so much about how to help people recover from injury and live pain free. I graduated summa cum laude in May of 2024 with a concentration in clinical exercise science.
I’ve built and maintained amazing relationships with my clients, all of whom have been training with me for over five years. I don’t follow a one-size-fits-all approach, but it’s always backed by science. I believe movement should be enjoyable, fulfilling, and I’ll never force you to do something you don’t want to do. My goal is to help people find their way to a balanced, pain-free, and truly healthy lifestyle by providing education, empowerment, support… and probably some laughs.
Joey Munoz

I’ve spent the last decade training, coaching, running, lifting, and figuring out what it actually takes to stay strong and athletic while still having a life.
My approach to personal training is simple: get stronger, move better, and build a level of fitness that carries over into everything you do. I’m not interested in making workouts complicated just for the sake of it. We train hard, we have fun, and everything we do has a purpose.
Outside of coaching, I’m an entrepreneur, marathon runner, lifter, and probably talking about my cats or Star Wars more than anyone asked me to.
Our training together is personal because it’s built around real relationships. You’re working with someone who knows your goals, knows your training, and genuinely wants to see you succeed no matter what your goals are.
Come as you are. We’ll build from there.
