“I got the Elements and Mobility package and I've been through both multiple times. At first I thought it kind of goofy, but then I found myself rolling up a mat and realized I was frogging along. Then when hiking I slipped and found myself in crab. So, I think the movements are more practical than they appear. Whatever the case, they make moving through the world way more comfortable, squats in particular. It's WAY easier put away the heavy frying pan on the bottom shelf these days.”
“Very easy on-ramp! Deskjob fellow here, got this program because my body was starting to rust a bit. I'm now comfortable in positions I couldn't do before the program, and feeling much more fluid in my own body. The program has a pretty nice on-ramp, not too difficult, but will definitely get you moving places (and enjoying the movement along the way!)
Lots of fancy Instagram acrobats out there, but Elements is legit.
A journey of a thousand steps starts with but one (and this is it)”
“This is a great introduction to the awesomeness that is GMB. It’s easy to use, easy to adjust, has great tutorials, lots of modifications for different levels/abilities and it’s fun! I’ve taken it multiple times and gotten something different each time. Can’t recommend it highly enough.”
“I'm in my 50s. I've done sports and fitness stuff my whole life. But thanks to GMB's "Elements" program, I have better mobility than I did in my 30s. My coordination is better. So is my control and awarenes of my body as it moves through space. Doing Elements at a steady pace and easy-to-moderate intensity has also helped me recover from a torn meniscus and persistent joint pain in my elblows and wrists (from pull-ups, countless hours at the computer, etc.). Just as important, it's been fun and interesting. I've learned a lot about how to move -- and about how strength works in the weird positions that we're placed in by sports and daily life. It's helped me change my goals and my attitude. I've adjusted better to the realities of aging. And it's served as a perfect supplment to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, which I've returned to after a 13-year layoff.
Summary: In my 50s, I'm weaker and slower than I was in my youth (even in my early 40s). But thanks to GMB's Elements I'm FAR more mobile, more coordinated, calmer, and more playful when I exercise or train Brazialian jiu-jitsu (or just do chores around the house). It's truly been a game changer. I wish I had discovered it many years ago.”
“Elements is a well constructed fitness training program. It starts off "simple" until you slow down and focus on the movements. The instructors have thought through the whole process. After a couple weeks, I started to get frustrated wtih my progress... and then the very next lesson, there was a video encouragement from Ryan that focused on my very frustration. I am achieving greater depth in my squats and finding every day movement easier since starting the program. As a runner, this program has helped me improve my form, all by working on my overall mobility.”
“It’s a great program that teaches me a methodical approach to my achieving my goals. I’ve learned a lot from it and am hopeful for much more to come. I don’t know how much more content exists on this track but it seems like there’s plenty and new guides, lessons, ideas are coming out continually. The only reason I don’t rate it a 5 star program is that my goals are quite high. My expectations are audacious and I’ll not know if this program is critical to achieving them for some time.”
“I have found these programs to be exactly what they claim them to be. They are pushing you to do what you can do and to strive to do better from where you are at without feeling guilty.
Also that Ryan is down to earth and not walking around with his shirt off but gets in there and participates in all the programs.
Great stuff and very beneficial! Thank you all.”
“I own and have tried many programs from various sources, but I always end up coming back to Elements. I bought it 10 years ago and thought it was excellent even then, but it has been significantly improved since. It is more flexible to use and integrates well with other GMB programs. I am 71 years old.”
