“I'm a 71-year-old woman. Relieved long-term ankle pain like nothing else has. It's fun. Not easy but not impossible. I do not work very hard at it. 15-minute sessions 5 to zero times a week. I've skipped weeks at a time. But I've improved in Mobility, strength, movement, fitness. Like the emphasis on listening to your body and not being perfect. It works! Take it from an old slacker.”
“I've been on elements for about three months.I finished the program and started it again and i'm really sorprised to see how much I've improved in mobility and strenght since I began working on it.”
“Rediscovering GMB Elements after years of inactivity due to arthritus. I now have had both hips replaced and am seeing my strength improve as well as whole body mobilty return. GMB Elements is a great program to follow along for anybody. Thank you all!”
“Elements is the right program for me, but it isn't always fun to follow. Basically, I spend a lot of time doing things I am not very good at. But I guess that is how it has to be. As for progress, that is very slow. In fact, I often wonder if there is progress at all. But when I think about it, yes, the frogger and the monkey feel a little easier now. Initially, I really didn't like these movements, it felt like I couldn't get my feet off the ground. Now I kind of enjoy them, I do them throughout the day when I get up from my desk, and I think that counts as progress, too. My wrists can take more load, my shoulders hurt a little less, little things.
I found my rhythm: I do the sessions early in the morning when the kids are still sleeping. I am really stiff then and it feels really awkward to move, but afterwards I feel good, my hips feel good, my shoulders feel good, ready for breakfast. And after all, if it feels good, I don't really need goals. I'll just keep going and see what happens.”
“Elements is an organized and systematic program. It is adaptable to me both in terms of time and challenge. It is possible to progress at a level suitable for me: gradual, general, accelerated. There are constant reminders/reassurances that the level at which I am doing a movement is, "perfecrly fine." And each session I can choose the duration in minutes based on how I am feeling that day and how much time I have/want to devote to it. More than once I have had to stop and step away fom Elements. But each time I could return and either resume or restart! With a guarnteed lifetime and unlimted accesss to the program, including updates, I know GMB Elements will be accessible to me in the years to come. I like having that assurance. Not all programs offer that.
Thank you, Andy, Ryan, and Jarlo.”
