“The flexible time based structure of the workouts was really good to encourage consistency in getting some work in. And the exercises were nicely varied -repeated often enough to see progress, but most days there was a new move to try and see how it felt. The emphasis on working at today's pace and exploring what you can do was a welcome change of focus from looking at the numbers of pace or reps or kilos on the bar”
“Elements and GMB is something you have to experience for yourself. I really fell in love with that style of training and I am seeing great progress in my daily training and my everyday life....”
“This program is amazing! I'm in my 50's and have been active my whole life, but I had 2 total hip replacements this year along with lingering lower back pain from a herniated disk. After going through standard post-surgery physical therapy, and getting the green light from my surgeon to do anything (within reason), I was pain-free but still very stiff in my hips and lower back. I started Elements about 6 months after hip surgery. I couldn't believe the difference after just a few weeks in Elements. I went from feeling like an old man, always cautious of straining something, to feeling like myself again. I can't recommend this enough.”
“I cannot speak highly enough of this program - I have had multiple injuries due to poor training and chronic overuse over many many years (shoulders, wrists, hips, ankles, lower back, neck). I was, and often am, the poster person for the "months off, too aggressive coming back on, predictable injury" cycle. I was getting truly frightened recently that I had gotten to the "I'll never again... " stage of life. Elements changed that for me. It has been the best exercise program I've used. Learning to go at the pace that's best for yourself and re-evaluating that every day has been essential to me to avoid overdoing it. I no longer pretend I can go back to being 22 years old overnight, and with this right attitude and approach, I have seen steady progress and can even do some things I couldn't do back then!
If you fall off the path and have to re-start, the programs are there to get you started at whatever level you are at that time.”
“Dear internet people reading this review. I am a very sedentary person (IT worker). I had little to no problems with my body and I think I thank the Elements program for that - once a year I try to complete it and each time I feel much better.
There is no equipment required and I was able to complete the program with a 2m*1m space in my apartment.
Throughout the program, I felt a gradual easing of movement and limbs. My posture improved and minor aches went away.
As you can see, I am a huge fan. I am also going for another round of Elements.”
“I love elements! This has helped me remain flexible an functional. At 45 I can do things I couldn't do at 30!
I am very grateful to GMB and their programs”
“I like the training overall, but the content does little to help someone assess and work through the causes of limitations. Also, its almost impossible to go back and retrieve a particular session the way the Praxis platform works. Finally, its tough to do a lot of the moves without my wrists getting sore. That said, with the help of a GMB trained coach, I have been able to address my limitations and move more smoothly through the movements and link several moves, which is gratifying and fun.”
