Elements is the online training program that teaches you to move your body with effortless control while reducing the aches and pains that build up in daily life.
🤸♂️ Full-body strength & flexibility
👨🎓 Expert video instruction
🏆 Results guaranteed
Get the confidence that your body is strong, loose, and coordinated enough to handle whatever you want to throw at it.
When was the last time you even considered doing a cartwheel? Or a backflip? Or climbing a tree?
Not that you should care about those particular movements but the point is this… Whether you’re conscious of them or not, your body’s limitations define the shape of your life.
At the gym, in the dojo, or at the park with the kids there are things you don’t try because you’re not sure your body can handle it, and other things you never even imagine yourself being able to do.
But your body shouldn’t limit what you can do in your life. We’re here to help make sure it doesn’t.
Even moves that seem superhuman can be broken down into 3 simple attributes: Strength, Flexibility, and Motor Control. We’ve spent over a decade refining a deceptively simple method to help you build athletic movement as efficiently as possible.
Elements guides you through a series of quick assessments so you start with a clear picture of how your body’s working. That way you know exactly where to focus your efforts to get the best results.
You’ll learn 4 core movement patterns to get stronger, improve range of motion, and develop skillful body control. So you’ll fix your weak links while also building practical movement skills.
As you improve you’ll notice you can move easier in any activity, even challenging athletic situations. Your body will have more options in your sports, outdoors, and daily life.
We use this method with clients because it’s what has actually worked over decades of our own training.
GMB was started by 3 life-long martial artists who also happen to be a physical therapist, a teacher, and a former competitive gymnast.
We’ve tried just about every workout and training method over the past 30+ years. But most “fitness” leaves out the exact things that make real athletic training efficient and effective.
Elements combines our proven method with 4 fundamental movement patterns most workouts neglect:
The Bear builds strength and stability through the arms and shoulders while stretching the hamstrings and upper torso.
The Frogger helps deepen your squat while also developing strength and stability through your arms, shoulders, and core.
The Monkey is a deep lateral move that opens the hips through repeated squat transitions.
The Crab strengthens your hips and core while developing coordination and control in an active supine position.
Over 40+ sessions you’ll follow a progression from basic patterns to challenging variations and combos.
So not only are you getting continuously stronger and more flexible, you’re also developing the coordination and spatial awareness that mark a true athlete.
All in as little as 15 minutes per session.
It’s easy to use on any smartphone or computer.

The result is newfound capability and confidence that transfers to all your activities.

We call that Physical Autonomy. It’s what we’re here to help you build. Here’s what some of our clients have to say about how Elements helped them.
“Elements is a great program to start with because it is really kid friendly. You can do it no matter who you are, where you are, what your situation is. And if you do a little bit every day, it will get better. And it does, magically.” –Amanda C.
“I’m AMAZED at how much my active mobility has improved in just 3 weeks of Elements. I no longer have chronic tension in my neck, my shoulders move better-than-ever, and getting into deep squats feel effortless now. I feel like my body has a lot more options for moving around now.” –Christian A.
“Elements just supplements all those little things that it’s so easy to neglect when you do repetitive sports, day in and day out. All people of different shapes, of different flexibility, with different pains, they can do this.” –Vaide G.

The funny thing about it is that you guys bill it as an introductory program, but I think almost anyone could benefit. I've been working out fairly regularly for years and am in pretty good shape by most people's standards but am getting huge benefits from Elements. I can basically hang out in a deep squat now, forward folds are easy, I can now briefly hold an unsupported handstand solely due to the high frogger and monkey.
I saw some comments on a Reddit thread at one point about it being too basic, but after having gone through it myself I'd bet money that those people saying it was too basic would have changed their tune if they'd stuck with it for the first couple of weeks.
Never in my life have I seen such vast improvement in health and fitness as I have working on your Elements program. I have worked out consistently for the last ten years and I love to workout, but it has always been an expectation either imposed by others or of my own creation. For the first time in my life, I go to the gym to play. To explore the limitations of my mind and body and it is exhilarating. I want to go, to play, to flow, to move.
Over the last decade I have had my left shoulder rebuilt, multiple herniations of my lumbar spine and even a broken neck, and today I am stronger than I have ever been. My wrists are flexible now, I can sleep on my left shoulder without pain, and my lower back is loose and free to move. It is incredible. My usable strength has increased so tremendously it's astounding. I am amazed by your programs and what they do. I am living proof that they work and I am truly humbled.
Starting my 5th week of Elements and I can honestly say the last several weeks have been the most consistent painfree weeks in 18 months! I am an ultra runner and absolutely love running trails and the further the better but neglect on mobility caught up and sidelined me. Over the course of two years I have seen chiropractor after chiropractor to alleviate lower back pain, high hamstring, and achilles. Heck just sitting for 30 minutes in the car was painful.
I got frustrated and finally after months of back and forth pulled the trigger on Elements. I figured it was 3 insurance copays and would certainly benefit from something in the program but never could have imagined the results I am achieving.
My a-ha was in week three where I could see the building blocks learned in previous sessions were a necessity to perform the more complex movements. I have not seen a chiropractor in two months. This past week I finally ran after 4 months off and felt great! The best part is no nasty pain or inability to walk the next day like I experienced with previous treatments and running.
I have come a long way and my personal trainer sees the difference as well. At age 47 I am looking long term and still desire to toe the line of my first 100 mile race. Feeling 100% was a dream I believe will become a reality.
Since we have been utilising these movements, I have noticed greater range of motion and flexibility in other movements and activities I perform inside and outside of the gym. These 3 moves and their endless variations add an element of fun to training.
When I first started I was challenged with getting the coordination - especially the bear because I had tight hamstrings and my brain wouldn't allow me to move opposite arm and opposite leg. But by continually working these movements, I have improved my hamstring flexibility and control.
I knew something was missing from my training, and when I heard Ryan talk about mobility, control, and strength it was like a new world. I'd only ever thought of training as being about strength. I eventually took the plunge and signed up to Elements.
Overall, I just feel thrilled with the whole program. I am so close to being able to do that first unassisted pull up. And I know my form on push ups is a million times better. I can even do strong form on an unassisted ring dip.
But it's the little things which make the difference. I have no aches and pains. I can get into a deep squat and just relax... it feels like the best stretch. I literally feel like if I keep working, that the world can be my oyster... even at 45. Thanks for being a voice of reason, and providing a sensible and helpful philosophy for those of us who may not have lived and breathed bodyweight fitness and movement exercises our whole lives.
To celebrate the conclusion of Elements, I am going to take my kids to the local rock climbing gym. I can't wait.
I have a cyst in my wrist that can be very restrictive for everything I'm doing. I also have an impingement in my shoulder from so many years of volleyball. I do not let these injuries hold me back, however I know that in the long run if I don't work to improve them I will not be able to do these things that I love.
I am on week 5 of Elements and the flow is starting to begin. I have already noticed my flexibility increasing and my wrist strengthening. I can't wait to keep at it, and I know that everything I'm doing with GMB will help to improve my yoga, rock climbing, snowboarding, and all of the activities I love.
I finished Elements and I am so happy 😄. A year ago I had such severe back pain that I could hardly move without having shooting back pain. Tying shoes or even sitting down or standing up was insanely painful. I tried everything I could think of and at first GMB Mobility, among other things, helped me slowly get rid of the stiffness and be able to move at all again.
Through Elements, I finally feel reasonably strong again and have significantly less pain. Most importantly, I'm having fun moving again, even though I'm far from doing a perfect spiderman or high frogger. The most important thing is that I have finally learned to listen to my body and take it slow, even though I'm normally rather impatient. I'm about to repeat the course and I'm really looking forward to it.
I tried so many things, but Mobility and Elements are the programs that I had most fun with and where I got my strength back.
This program is GREAT. I practice BJJ and this program has helped greatly with my mobility in that. I also do kettlebell training and working with Elements has helped improve my kettlebell form and technique. I LOVE IT!
I have an injury from nearly 2 years ago while I was training for a strength challenge and this program has really helped with the final things that have still been hanging on from the injury. Some of the lingering daily pain I had has gotten much better with this!!!
The fact that one day we work on one thing in the program and I have trouble with it, and the next time that we work on it I can already see improvement is AMAZING!!!!! I am so happy with Elements that I recently upgraded to the bundle of the other programs.
Again, I can't express how much Elements has helped me in all aspects of my mobility, stabilization and strength in such a short amount of time!
The greatest benefits that I get from bear crawls is reflexive strength and coordination between the shoulders and hips. I like how it can be an explosive exercise for endurance and lower intensity exercise for flexibility/mobility and lengthening of the muscles.
Monkey and Frogger definitely force my hips into a deeper squat which I feel gives me more range of motion and flexibility. It has also built up my upper body strength which has prepared my body for other movements such as handstands!
Overall, these movements help me stay agile and limber for everyday activities.
We’ve also taken the liberty of including the answers here, since the questions aren’t very enlightening on their own 😉
Lifetime Access
You’ll never lose access to your programs. If you have to take time off, pick right back up where you started. Your training materials are always available.
Brilliant Support
If you ever get stuck or need help, you can easily send a message and get expert support from one of our coaches. We’re here to help.
Nothing – no weights, bars, or bands. You’ll need a space you can crawl around on, but it doesn’t have to be large at all.
Absolutely. The program is great for women and men. We’ve had loads of badass ladies go through Elements and find that the program helps them to feel and move better.
Probably not. Elements is our most accessible program for any age or fitness level. Every exercise is broken down and clearly explained at multiple difficulty levels.
If you’ve been training consistently for at least a year, you can add Elements by reducing the volume of your regular training. If you’re starting out, please just pick one.
Yes, but don’t expect to get “jacked” with Elements. You may notice bigger arms and shoulders, but you’ll feel stronger all over.
Elements is focused on the bear, monkey, frogger, and crab movements, but there are variations of each tying into moves such as cartwheels and handstands.
You can choose between 15, 30, and 45 minute sessions depending on how you’re feeling and what else is happening that day.
Elements shores up your weak points and improves your agility, which means better performance in all your physical activities.
