“Hey, I like Elements. I still hit the gym and do all my regular stuff, but GMB Elements (and their other programs) help keep me limber even after a week of picking things up and putting them back down again at the gym. I've finished Elements 3x now and expect to keep coming back. It's one of the best investments I've ever made.”
“After a while browsing YouTube for fitness training I came across GMB and found that regular exercise can be interesting and fun again.
Ryan is a fantastic trainer, funny and informative, GMB now has a new feature allowing you to slow things down or Go Advanced.
I'm about halfway through the programme now and training three times a week, and I can already see improvement.
Remember it's got to be fun if you're going to keep on doing it, have Fun and get Elements it's as easy or as hard as you want it to be you're in control.”
“Elements has been my base program over the last few years because it is just so flexible, adaptable and of course a lot of fun! It is my main program when I want to progress more quickly towards some of the higher level skills in the program. In other training phases, I use it as a warm-up or days off program when I want to focus on another attribute. The program and the platform (Praxis) makes it easy to do that.
Of all the programs I've tried over 20+ years of training (and I've tried a lot), Elements is the one that most effectively covers most, if not all, of the fitness training bases in an efficient "package" - strength, flexibility and mobility, balance, proprioception, conditioning, joint care.
I think the GMB people have said it is not a hypertrophy program, but I've found that their advice to slow things down (to get a better feeling for the movements) have actually helped put on quite a bit of muscle, especially in the upper body. After all, building muscle requires time under tension and isn't that what slowing it down basically is?
In short, I'd highly recommend this program!”
“Elements has made me stronger, more mobile and flexible, and it has increased my physical confidence. I’m 42 years old, and now my 17 year old is joining me, because she thinks it would be cool to do handstands and stuff. We love Elements. And it set us up for further development without becoming redundant. I love doing Floor Loco and going back to the Elements basics. Strong program. Highly recommend.”
“All in all, it’s just a neat introduction to “movement” and locomotion on the floor. I love the setup and have taken a lot of the exercise into my daily practice”
“Every now and then, I fall off the training horse. The reason could be getting a cold or a period of intense work. Starting over is always hard, and thinking about doing push-ups never helps. That's where Elements has worked great so far. I do the prep work, and as I follow the Practice, Play, Push routine, I start getting back into the flow of moving and then I get a sense that I am back into the program. Since I am not counting reps, I don't need to feel bad about my performance, and since Elements has a few challenging movements sprinkled in, it feels very balanced both to get back on track and to try something new.”
“I liked that you can choose the length of each training session from 15, 30 or 45 minutes. The course lessons gradually become more difficult. I couldn't do some things in the first round. Now that I've started the course for the second time, I can see that I've really improved. Love it. Moreover my back pain is much better.”
