Hidden Gems: Meet Gregg McLeod of Green Beret Fitness

Today we’d like to introduce you to Gregg McLeod. Them and their team share their story with us below:

Green Beret Fitness (GBF) was founded in 2018 by former British Army Officer and Green Beret, Gregg McLeod. Gregg spent 15 years in the Army, completing his Green Beret Commando course in 2010. His final two years were spent working with the United Kingdom Special Forces in London, England.

“People are capable of more than they think” was the starting ethos, and from that belief, Green Beret Fitness was born. The methods and tactics used in Green Beret Fitness Events are selected to take everyday warriors to their physical and mental limits. Teamwork plays a critical role in the military and it is no different in our events.

We wanted events that were different. We wanted them to be hard. We wanted people to be pushed to their limits and come away stronger from the experience. We wanted our Members to embody our motto:

TOUGH.STRONG.FIT

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Green Beret Fitness launched in the USA in February 2020, just before COVID gripped the world. We had to slow the launch and reexamine our strategy. Not great timing to launch a new company in a new country. We are now back on track and expanding all over the USA looking for those who seek challenge and adventure.

As you know, we’re big fans of Green Beret Fitness. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
Green Beret Fitness is the Leader in Ruck based mountain endurance events. We have events for all abilities all over the country and our events take place in some of the most beautiful locations in the world.

We are the only company in the world that offers this type of event and with our unique background as British Special Forces and Commandos, we do it better than anyone else.

Where we are in life is often partly because of others. Who/what else deserves credit for how your story turned out?
Teamwork is incredibly important and my wife is a tremendous support. She is Active Duty US military and works very hard to support the company, while Serving the country too.
