How would you train ...
... if your life depended on it?

Ever wonder how the professionals do it? How they get and stay in the kind of shape that allows them to hack through jungles all day, swim across rivers at night, jump out of planes, scale cliffs and carry wounded comrades to safety. Hang on ... you're about to find out.

Welcome to Randy Beck's S.O.M.A.C. 

How S.O.M.A.C was created: An open letter from Major W, US Army Special Operations, Retired

As a US Army Special Operations Officer, I never knew what a day might hold. We might be dropped out of the sky and need to hack our way through 20 miles of jungle just to get to our target. We might be dropped in the ocean and need to swim 10 kilometers to shore with all our gear in tow. Fitness wasn't a luxury for us – it was a matter of life or death. We trained like our lives depended on it – because, in fact, they did.

We quickly figured out what worked and what didn't. And we didn't have time for so called “fitness” programs that didn't work.


When you're carrying a 100-pound pack up and down mountains all day long, you don't need muscles that just look pretty – you need muscles that work.

We've all heard stories like this: A burly weightlifter couldn't carry his own grandmother up the steps. Sure he had muscle, but it was the wrong kind of muscle – it wasn't there when he needed it.

In Special Operations, we needed muscle that worked.

But that wasn't all. We needed more than brute strength. When it was time to move, we needed to move fast, move far, and move under the most extreme conditions imaginable. Cardiovascular conditioning wasn't an option – it was a lifesaving necessity.

Ten minutes of hopping around in cute tights didn't cut it for us. Aerobics is almost too small a word for the kind of conditioning that was part of our every day two-hour physical training routine.

We knew we had to be prepared for every kind of challenge – from hand-to-hand combat to stealthy surveillance, from blowing up bridges to nursing a sick child back to health. That's why we combined running, swimming, meaningful calisthenics, every kind of martial arts, weight and load bearing conditioning.

We were good at what we did, but we never took that as an excuse to get lazy. Every day we looked for ways to get better.

That's how S.O.M.A.C. was born. In the mid-1980s, in the 100+ degree heat and humidity of one of our training camps, we discovered the powerful synergy of putting martial arts conditioning together with our already strenuous physical training program.

If you want the kind of workout that will transform you, you just found it. S.O.M.A.C. receives my highest praise.

- Major W


Major W. may someday be recognized for his heroism.
But for now, his career accomplishments remain classified.

Bringing it into the 21st century

S.O.M.A.C. began as a physical training program for the most elite soldiers in the world. In 2005 and 2006 it was perfected into a fitness program for everyone by 6th Degree Black Belt Martial Arts Master Randy Beck.

Like many people, Master Beck was tired of the “hamster on a wheel” approach to fitness offered at many health clubs. Too many hours on the treadmill convinced him to team up with Major W and other experts, to create the best physical training program money could buy.

As a team, they made a startling discovery. Embedding the right combination of martial arts techniques into the Special Operations conditioning program resulted not only in superior fitness, but it empowered men and women like yourself to defend themselves in the real world.

Most people don't realize ...

• You don’t have to be a martial arts master to effectively defend yourself and/or family.

But you do need proper training ...

Defending yourself 

A report from Master Randy Beck, 6th Degree Black Belt Martial Arts Instructor

Everybody has a God-given desire to want to be able to protect themselves. It’s simply human nature. Your desire to protect yourself and your family makes perfect sense in our increasingly violent world. There isn’t a man or a woman who doesn't want to feel confident in a confrontational or combative situation, and especially if your family is in danger. It’s just human nature .

Here's how S.O.M.A.C. makes that possible for you.

S.O.M.A.C. is a DVD-based fitness program built on practical martial arts technique. It works in real life. What does that mean?

One day I was sitting quietly at a table with a few friends. Some men at a nearby table started making inappropriate remarks about the young women with us. We did our best to ignore them.

But that wasn't good enough. One of the men, a huge biker, nearly a foot taller than me, decided it was time to come over to our table and do us bodily harm. I stood up and faced him, thankful for my own martial arts training.

He charged in a drunken rage, his eyes wild with unreasoning fury. I stepped forward and used a simple technique that I will teach you in your S.O.M.A.C. training.

It was like slicing through butter.

He staggered backwards and fell. His face was covered with disbelief. A few moments later, still dazed, he struggled to his feet. Meekly and quietly he left the room. I never saw him again.

Let me explain how this works.

• Proper training --> Proper technique

Embedded in your S.O.M.A.C. DVD's are practical martial arts techniques taught to you by a master 6th degree black belt martial arts instructor. You are carefully guided into the techniques that really work – there's no fluff here. 30 years and tens of thousands of hours of experience go into these instructions, so you know you are getting techniques that work on the street as well as on the mat.

Improper training can kill you in a life or death emergency. Don't be fooled by cheap imitations! I’ve seen a multitude of infomercials with spandex clad participants flailing about with techniques that are supposed to mimic techniques used in the Martial Arts. It makes me angry! Here are good people – unsuspecting participants – lulled into a false sense of confidence and led to believe that they've been given something that will be even remotely effective when it comes time for them to defend themselves.

• Proper technique + S.O.M.A.C. conditioning = Muscle memory

In a real emergency you will respond as you have been trained to respond. You will respond without thinking because there isn't time to think. That's why “muscle memory” matters.

Let me explain “muscle memory.” You use muscle memory every day – to dress, to drive your car, to eat, to type on your computer, and to do a thousand other routines that you do automatically without thinking. S.O.M.A.C. trains you how to respond to an emergency with that same kind of “muscle memory.” Your hands, your feet, your whole body automatically knows what to do without you needing to stop and figure out how to respond.

How do you get “muscle memory”? You practice the same technique over and over again. That's S.O.M.A.C.. Muscle memory for life's emergencies.

• Muscle memory in an emergency = the power to defend and protect

And building muscle memory is fun when you are realizing results.

Want to get good at something? Do it over and over again. Make S.O.M.A.C. part of your daily routine and every day you get stronger, more prepared, more ready for life's emergencies.

S.O.M.A.C. was perfected by a 6th degree black belt instructor with tens of thousands of hours of experience training hundreds of men, women and children.

Here's what Master Randy Beck says about being prepared to defend yourself and your family:

“In a real emergency, it isn't the person who knows a hundred techniques who prevails. It's the person who knows a half dozen techniques and uses them well. When you choose S.O.M.A.C., you will learn techniques that really work, and you will learn them very, very well. I have hand selected Martial Arts techniques that you can learn and have ready for a crisis. You will be prepared to act when there's no time to think.”
--6th Degree Black Belt Master Randy Beck

Please understand: You can learn this. You can develop the power to defend and protect. Does it take focus? Yes. Does it take effort? Yes. Everything of value does. But these are skills you can master. And you will master them day after day as you become stronger, healthier and more fit with the S.O.M.A.C. full body workout.

Imagine the confidence that will be yours. No longer do you need to tremble at the prospect of needing to defend yourself. Self-defense skills are something you hope you will never need to use; but it sure is nice to know they are there if you need them.

Do you know the key to super strength?

Pound for pound, primates are seven times stronger than humans. Stop and think about it. Gorillas don't lift weights, but they are stronger than any weightlifter. You won't find any primates at your local health club, but primates can perform acrobatics that Olympic athletes can only dream of.

What is the key to their super strength and agility?

Bodyweight exercises. Shortly after birth, young primates are placed on a bodyweight exercise program by their mothers. They are expected to carry their own weight – literally! Primates grow up learning to hang on to their mothers, hang from branches, support their own weight in every kind of position.

No wonder most humans can't keep up!

S.O.M.A.C. harnesses this little known bodyweight exercise principle to give you explosive energy and power. Now is the time to get back the strength that was meant to be yours. S.O.M.A.C. gives you the best in bodyweight conditioning, so you get raw usable power packed into every muscle in your body.

Remember ...

No membership or special equipment required

Many times I have been at the health club feeling like a hamster on a wheel while using the equipment. I began to realize that while there are cardio benefits, my time would be better spent if I’d incorporate something practical at the same time. S.O.M.A.C. provides that practical end to the training you’re already doing.

And here's the good news ....
... you don't need special equipment or club memberships.

Do Army Rangers take a fitness club with them out into the field? Do Navy Seals strap a set of weights to their wet suits? No, they don't because they know the secret: You don't need weights to become super strong, and you don't need a health club to become super fit.

But you do need know how.
S.O.M.A.C.
Lift weights if you want. Pay health club fees if you must. But know this: Your real fitness is going to come from know how and consistent practice. Here are two equations every man, woman and child should know.

• Fancy equipment + pricey health clubs = expense out of your pocket

• Know how + consistent practice = true fitness & usable skill

S.O.M.A.C. supplies the know how. You supply the consistent practice. That's your formula for fitness success. And it starts right here.

Easy to use, easy to carry, easy to order
Because the entire S.O.M.A.C. program has now been compressed to DVD, you can take S.O.M.A.C. with anywhere. On the road or at home, wherever you have a few extra minutes, you can be putting S.O.M.A.C. to work for you. It's easy to order on-line with credit card or PayPal, or you can mail a check or money order. Your DVDs will be promptly shipped to your address. The order page has complete information.




Order here instead of buying high-priced equipment or renewing expensive memberships.

You can master this

How do I know? Because S.O.M.A.C. is a program that any one can master, whether you’re male or female, in great shape or striving to improve your present fitness level. There may be exercises throughout the course of the individual levels that may prove to be a bit excessive or beyond your current ability level. In these cases I have provided exercises that can be used as alternatives that serve as building blocks to ultimately mastering the once challenging portions of the program.

Get a body others will envy and admire.

Facts are facts. Men and women alike are ashamed of the way their bodies look. Just a walk down the street can open your eyes. As a society we are out of shape.

What would it worth to be able to look in the mirror and really like what you see?

Guess what? Recapturing youthful and useful fitness is not just an idle fantasy, but an achievable goal.

If you know how ...

Do you have the “Some day, I'll get in shape” tape playing in your head?

That endless loop doesn’t have to be a discouraging and nagging source of negative self-worth.

Now there is a solution.

• You can't find self image in a book.
• You can't find it in a $2000 self image “boot camp.”
• You can't find it in the multi-billion dollar beauty industry.

But you can find it when you look at your life and you are happy with what you see. True beauty is more than skin deep. S.O.M.A.C. cuts deeper.

At the same time, you ...

• Bring out your competitive best.

• Enjoy life; enjoy your kids.

• Enjoy poise and grace.

• Take the fast track to fitness.

• Get Muscles that really work, not just muscles for show.

Make health your priority

There is no time like the present for both you and your children. Once you make your health a priority I’ve found that most everything else just kind of falls into place. There are very few gifts that can replace making your health a critical part of your lifestyle. The kids I started working out with years ago are still working out today as adults and consider their health a top priority. It’s just a lifestyle that was developed over a course of time. It would seem odd not to have working out a part of my daily life. Too many of today's children don’t see it that way, and for good reason. Schools have dropped athletic programs at an alarming rate. With your help we can fight the tide.
