Meet Max Berteaux
I’m Max Berteaux, founder of Berteaux Health & Fitness, a movement specialist, Marine Corps combat veteran, and kinesiology graduate. I help people identify what is holding them back and build practical plans involving movement, strength, nutrition, and daily habits.
My goal goes beyond helping one person improve. When people build healthier habits and greater physical capability, they can model those behaviors for their families and help future generations develop a healthier relationship with movement, food, and life.
Real People.
