Reviews and Results from GMB Clients

101,371 clients from over 100 countries have used GMB programs, many overcoming unique challenges on the road to building strength and skill their friends and families have come to envy.

I'm 330lbs and I'm currently doing Elements. It's worth your time and effort to give it a try. Just take it slow like they said and practice the best you can. It's super adaptable and doesn't rush you. Do it at your own pace.
I’ve found the GMB elements program really helpful and I’ve made massive improvements in level of back pain. I’m back training jiu jitsu (and loving it) and am getting more confidence in my body.  Pain has almost gone.  Not only martial arts but I can now do landscaping moving tonnes of dirt etc and bounce back the next day with no issue.
I'm 53 years old and obese and just finished my 11th session of Elements. I always choose the 15 minute option At first I just did the best I could, which wasn't very much! Tonight I was able to work the whole 15 minutes- I don't look like the ads, but I'm pleased as punch with my (slow) progress! This is the first session that I can imagine moving up to 30 minutes on my next go around! I also started using their eating skills program. I'm still adjusting to NOT being on a diet and not feeling guilty ALL of the time, but this system is changing my mind as well as my body.

well designed - approachable and friendly vibe

Case Study: This Triathlete Fixed What Her Training Left Out

I was looking for something structured and functional for my rest days. My wrists were weak. My shoulders were hurting from swimming. I had fractured an ankle, so that had problems. Now I’ve got something and I know every session is different and it builds me up to something. I’m actually enjoying it. It just supplements all those little things that it’s so easy to neglect when you do repetitive sports, day in and day out.

This is what I like about Elements, that you have a plan to follow: week one, week two, week three, session after session. It builds you up. That constant encouragement that it’s okay not to be able to do it to that level of what’s on the screen is really encouraging. All people of different shapes, of different flexibility, with different pains, they can do this.

Case Study: Fixing 30 Years of Deskbod

Over the course of 30 years or so sitting in front of a computer, I realized that it was just really, really wreaking havoc on my shoulders and back. I just wanted to find a way to not be in pain and to move better than I was.

Ever since I started training with Elements my perennial shoulder and lower back pain have subsided. I was able to go into a deep squat more comfortably for the first time. Never in my life could I have imagined doing that and now I constantly do it. It was really easy to follow and I could pause if I needed to, that was really important. I could do it as long as I wanted or as little as I wanted, but I always got something out of it and I felt good after that. Even just 15 minutes a day even helped.

I feel so much better than when I started this program. I’ve never felt more at ease in my body than I do now. This is how I want to feel for the rest of my life.

I was a bit worried that I wouldn't be able to complete many of the movements due to limitations as a result of aforementioned shoulder issues. I couldn't have been more wrong! I've been able to move at my own pace, and ease into the movements a little bit at a time. Working through Elements has helped me develop stability and range of motion with my shoulder that I never thought I'd regain.
Establishing an uncomplicated exercise routine at home was really important. With a toddler running around, Elements offered a safe program that could be done anywhere, anytime and potentially in PJs.

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. I am amazed by your programs and what they do. I am living proof that they work and I am truly humbled.

I didn't expect to feel so good. About halfway through Elements, a nagging lower back pain I lived with for years was suddenly gone. I move a lot more freely, in general, and have greater mobility in my hips and shoulders which helps with all of my outdoor activities.

By the end of the course, those little aches [in my lower back] have completely gone. And I am steadily gaining additional strength, improved body posture, balance, motor control, and body awareness as I continue to practice and explore the movements.

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!

I signed up for Elements, and I must say that your programs are really AMAZING! I thought I was born with the ability not to squat! Now I can squat deep fairly well... THANK U SOOOOOO MUCH!
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 so much more in control of my body, and feel like my body has a lot more options for moving around now. It's incredibly fun to "explore" those movement options and just play!

Elements will always hold a special place in my heart, as it was the beginning of a new way of looking at movement and exercise, and branching away from the gym mentality. Elements allowed me to move anywhere and brought movement play into my life. It was a revelation, it felt so liberating and free.

I discovered all sorts of things related to core engagement, shoulder stability, and hip flexibility that were totally new! I even seem to learn new movements faster because my body awareness has been so improved.

I retired from basketball earlier this year after playing weekly for 21 years because of knee pain. Thanks to Elements I am now planning to play a very short season over the summer. This means I can do a sport I love with a shorter recovery time.

I just finished the first run through of the Elements program and absolutely enjoyed it. It needs no equipment so it's very mobile and minimal. And it has all components in it of mobility, stretching, strength, control, cardio, core training, preparation, etc.

I am actually playing in a badminton league and doing some calisthenics. And I see much progress in both activities in the last 2 months since I started Elements. I somehow "understand" the ways my body moves much better and the movements became much more creative.

Elements helped show me that there was more to fitness than just picking up heavy things at a gym. It's brilliantly simple, and the new Praxis system with videos and everything is spectacular. By the end of the summer I did my first cartwheel and was signed up for a parkour class within a week!

I am now in week 6 of Elements and really enjoying it. The progress has been great in terms of agility and motor control. The back pain is gone after just a week of practice. What GMB gave me is an opportunity to reconsider my approach to physical training with less pressure and more understanding of what is happening with my body.

Where I notice the biggest difference is in BJJ practice. I can move more freely and I have better control over my body, and I didn’t have bad control before, so it's quite impressive how much four weeks can do!
JP Trudel

I now move better, with more control and precision over my body, and better mobility. I now learn new moves a lot faster, and I can really visualize what needs to happen to nail it. Before Vitamin, many moves seemed too complicated to do at my ability level, but now I can see how I would be able to do them.
I am always looking for new and different ways to move. Actually, Vitamin just reminded me of ways I used to move and had stopped. I was a professional Broadway Dancer and High Aerial Tumbler, and the Vitamin program just made me ask myself, "Why did you stop moving around on the floor?"
I was looking for something new to try and the movement style of training in GMB's Vitamin course peaked my interest. I was most excited to learn how to roll out of my handstand, and also about my improved wrist strength from the program. Plus my son likes rolling around on the ground with me, so it's a win win!
I signed up for Vitamin thinking that it would be helpful for my capoeira practice, but I had no idea just how much my vocabulary of movements would expand over 28 days. It's great that we don't need any special equipment for our sessions, and that just a few minutes of regular, daily practice can yield such a treasure trove of benefits.

The GMB Vitamin course helped me to find the pleasure of the movement. The playful exercises helped me to find the way back to my childhood. At the age of 50, there are a lot of movements we don't risk to do anymore. Vitamin showed me it is still possible to do these things.

I wanted to make rolls, jumps, twists and turns look just as smooth as my pull-ups, muscle-ups, and dips. So the "goal" with the program was to be able to move with more grace and ease, controlled but dynamic, flowing if you will, and to be more free in my options of movement. Right now I'm getting to the point where I can just combine different movements to a flow as I go along. Doing this is fun as hell!!

The most important thing I’ve learned from Vitamin is that I’m not a hopeless case. It IS possible to learn to do new things and skills even if you are almost 50 years old and have never been involved in gymnastics before.

I was training for a hiking trip that would have a 4000-feet elevation gain over 6 miles. I used Mobility as a warm-up for my training sessions for about 50 sessions, 5-days per week. I immediately noticed how I could traverse over, under, and around rocks and dead-fall with ease. My flexibility, mobility, and strength at weird joint angles was incredible. Now I use Mobility as a warm-up for every single training session.

I didn’t really understand how to stretch before or how to breathe while stretching. Grouping of specific areas also helped a lot because I didn’t understand that before either! I really liked the format.
Matthew Suderman

It changed the way I stretched. Now in my static/PNF stretching I always use the pattern of dynamic stretching followed by PNF as described in FF. I find the dynamic movements make the PNF less uncomfortable so it’s easier to spend more time stretching. I also think that it reduces injury because the movements make me stronger near the current limits of my flexibility.

I have incorporated Jarlo’s flexibility tactics into my martial arts stretching and whilst teaching tonight I got stomach and chest to the floor on the pancake stretch. My progress is really down to doing things in the right way.

I've completed Integral Strength, and I'm most excited about seeing my training reflected in better stamina during my aerial work. I train for FUN, in all its various forms! I really enjoy aerial arts and dance, so building my strength and flexibility for those things is a primary focus for me.
My flexibility has greatly improved, so much so that I am close to getting my L-sit. I also achieved my first unassisted chin-up from a dead hang. In all those years of weight training, I was never able to do chins without the assist of jumping from the ground.

I think my shrimp squat practise most days is what has made my legs strong enough to complete a challenge like this with little running training. Thank you, GMB!
Integral Strength is a well-designed program. It has a combination of strength and mobility and stretches, and it improved my core a lot, which helped me to be more stable.

Integral Strength was unlike any of the dozens of programs I had tried in order to get strong, especially in my upper body. The workouts flew by. I am stronger now than I was when I was rowing in college, but the best thing about the Integral Strength program is that it teaches simple, effective, and really cool movements that can be done anytime, anywhere, and for a lifetime.

A number of the movements complemented my jiu jitsu training. It specifically helped with my strength and flexibility, both of which are important in BJJ. I can see doing Mobius again and quite possibly on a regular basis (once or twice a year or something like that).
Doing Mobius for the first time gave me more core strength, successfully applied in my 🏂 snowboarding adventures. It is so much easier and more fun now!

Mobius challenged me to move in new ways and strengthened movements that weren’t very familiar to me. I love how much of the program is dedicated to movement through different planes, ground, mid-level, and standing. As adults living in the modern westernized world we don’t spend enough time moving through different planes of motion and I feel like that really affects us physically and mentally.

No matter what is your background, and physical abilities, there is a slew of benefits from being part of the AP community. I love being inspired by others in the community (I have seen what people can achieve here if they persist with their training), and I am thrilled that I stumbled on this program two years ago when I was searching something than can work for me.

I've never gone so long without being injured. I've always done too much in too little time. That led to bad quality movement and eventually, injuries. With your advice in Alpha Posse, I started to train mindfully and that's when I started to work through my imbalances.
