Meet the Ripped Santa: The Fitness Angel of the Twin Cities

Watch out, Twin Cities — there’s a new Santa cruising into town, and he’s anything but ordinary.

This Santa doesn’t arrive by sleigh. He rolls in with a red convertible, a confident smile, and yes — sometimes a cigar. Known as the “Fitness Angel,” he’s redefining what Santa looks like and what Santa stands for.

Meet Bill Everhart, better known as Ripped Santa.

Ripped Santa isn’t just about muscles and a bold presence — he’s about purpose. His message is simple, powerful, and lived daily:

God. Hard work. Eggs.

That motto represents discipline, faith, and consistency — the same principles Bill uses to help people overcome personal challenges, rebuild confidence, and believe in themselves again. Whether he’s inspiring through fitness, motivation, or simply showing up as a larger-than-life symbol of perseverance, Ripped Santa reminds everyone that strength starts from within.

He’s not just spreading holiday cheer — he’s spreading hope, accountability, and grit, all year long.

So if you see a ripped Santa rolling through the Twin Cities, don’t be surprised. That’s not just Santa Claus — that’s the Fitness Angel, here to remind you that with faith, effort, and a little protein, anything is possible.
