“What I liked:
• Movement-based training is fun and rewarding
• Every session is full body
• Easy on the joints, so I can train daily
• Time-based exercises with auto-regulation work really well for me
• Great variety in the later sessions
• Simple, effective programming
• The structure of Prepare, Practice, Play, Push is spot on
• Mobility is built in, not an afterthought
• Being able to choose session length is a big plus
• Lots of cool progressions
What could be improved to get to 5/5:
• Adding band or stick shoulder dislocations to Prepare would be valuable
• Tough on wrists at the start, maybe offer extra prep time or guidance
• Dedicated core work early on might help with some progressions
• 45-minute sessions could include new exercises, not just longer sets
• An optional relax section with stretches for neck, traps, chest, and hips would help manage tension
• Bullet lists for free flow sections would make them easier to follow
• The self-reflection section could include feedback, pointers, or light homework
Overall:
• I love this program
• It delivers on physical autonomy
• I’ll be getting more GMB programs
• A few tweaks would make it perfect”
“I haven’t properly worked out for over 20 years (i’m 55) . Occasionally going to gym lifting weights, get sore stop working out, start again a while later and repeating that cycle.
Then I came x one of the GMB videos about taking it easy, working on the actual movements, mobility and strength. Made sense to me. It’s online you pay once and have access to the videos.
I tried elements (since then I bought couple
other programs) and wow. It’s day and night difference than anything else I tried.
I can see improvement of my posture day 1. I was a little intimidated at first because obviously Ryan has the background on gymnastics and martial arts and I don’t. But when started with basics he makes it amazingly clear with many variations
After a few weeks ( i do elements 3days/ week). I couldn’t believe about my own deep squats, my strength and my over all look.
I regularly recommend this program and GMB in particular. It’s very challenging, but since I am working at my own pace I get to push as hard as I want.
I highly recommend GMB and Elements.”
“I have tried Elements a few times before but never managed to get passed a few sessions. This time I actually tried again and am enjoying the movements that go from one position to another. It feels like a flow and that is what attracted me to this.
I am just receovering from a herniated disc and been doing weights which I find very boring. So I started to try this program again. I only do 30 mins sessions about 3 times per week and this works well for me. I notice difference in strength and mobility and looking forward to finish the program and maybe looking at another next.
I love the calm teaching style as it is what I need right now. Thanks for putting this amazing program together...if you follow it consistently you will definitely start noticing a difference.
Blessings”
“Elements has three different tracks, so I can choose the timing. The teaching is delivered clearly. I am improving my strength and agility. I highly recommend these core movements.”
“About one month in and I have been amazed and surprised by the results. It starts easy and builds up slowly and the gains start to appear when you don't expect them. This has also completely trasnsformed how I enjoy my favorite sport, rockclimbing, as it taught my body to move in new ways with better range of motion. Amazing!”
“I have been doing Elements for only a few weeks and I am amazed at how much more control I have over my own body. This program is so practical for building strength that is useful in everyday life and I love the way my body is feeling. I used to wake up with a stiff neck and shoulders every day but after about two weeks of Elements that pain has disappeared. I wish I had known about this program 20 years ago but I'm grateful for it now.”
