Jibaro strength is about becoming the strongest you can be, right in your own neighborhood.

In Puerto Rico, "Jíbaro" refers to the resilient rural farmers who embody the island's spirit and serve as stewards of the land. Renowned for their strength and connection to nature, Jíbaros symbolize the enduring bond between people ,their heritage, and the demands of their occupation.

Jibaro Strength was founded to honor this legacy through fitness, education, and community building. We’re led by Juan Peña, an experienced trainer, semi-professional athlete, and dedicated father.
