Meet Joe and Rocky, Co-founders of BattleGrounds Fitness and the Battle Buddy brawl!
Joe and Rocky are two Marine Corps veterans who served together in the early 2000s, deploying to Eastern Europe, South America, and Iraq.
After nearly a decade apart, they reconnected, and their shared passion for health & fitness led them to co-found BattleGrounds Fitness, in memory of their good friend and fellow Marine, SSGT David H. Stewart, who was killed in Action in 2014 in Afghanistan.
In 2022, they co-founded the Battle Battle Brawl. An event dedicated to honor and help those who serve.
Their goal is for Battle Buddy Brawls to take place at gyms across the world. If you are interested in hosting a Battle Buddy Brawl at your gym, please contact us at battlegroundsfit@gmail.com
