After training in applied arts in Nantes, France, he launched his career in advertising and product design. After 15 years, Ganneau's independent spirit, need for creativity, and desire for challenge drew him away from industry work. He now merges his love for illustration with his passion for resistance training. His strong graphics, expressive lines, and vibrant colors result in a distinctive style that pairs perfectly with The Modern Art of High Intensity Training and now The Modern Art and Science of Mobility.
