Tired of America Wasting Away?
Let's Rebuild with STRENGTH!!!

We are MOVING America-Join Us!

If there was ever a time for straight up health and fitness with NO BS--the time is now Comrades! There is no more time for dysfunctional levels of political correctness while America justifies epidemic levels of obesity, diabetes, and other life-style diseases! As Avengers of Health, we have a golden opportunity. The time is NOW. Let us all as Lean Berets rebuild this great country on a new foundation--one of STRENGTH and optimal health.

If you want to get it on, you are at the right place! The Lean Berets are about ACTION and doing the right thing. Our weapons of war are real-world fitness and healthy eating. It's very simple. We want everyone to play that is ready for action. Let's 'Role'!!!

TOO FAT to fit on the plane?
Kick yourself in the butt like Big Ron, and lose the weight instead of
blaming the airlines!!!

  • When "Big Ron" Carolus attempted to fly to Hawaii the other year, he was told to leave the plane because he was too fat to fit in the seat. In front of 300 people, he packed his bags and left in shame. Furious, he attacked the following week and began kicking his OWN ass--not blaming the airlines! In less than one year, he lost 140 pounds then got on the plane, sat is butt in the seat, and flew to Hawaii for vacation! His story is a powerful one that is inspiring--it CAN BE DONE! Own your own dysfunction--then get it on like Big Ron!
  • Check out Big Ron's story of ACTION and INSPIRATION.
