GMB is about Having Fun and Being Strong for Real Life

Our kind of strength isn’t about seeing how much weight we can lift over our heads but allow­ing us to perform confi­dently and proudly in every­thing we do. And if we happen to look good doing it, that’s a side effect we’re prepared to deal with. We can do what we want, where we want, and when­ever we want, with­out fear of injury, because our bodies deliver Gold Medal perfor­mances every day.

Our whole approach to train­ing is based on three simple ideas:

• Size with­out strength is a shame.
• Strength with­out skill is a waste.
• Fitness is a skill you must practice.

What can we do for you?

A lot. Stick with us, and you can expect:

• to be stronger than you thought possible
• to find your­self perform­ing skills and tricks you’ve never imagined
• to do the things you love doing better
• to feel like a winner after every work­out, even if you never actu­ally get a gold medal in anything
• to be healthy and strong when your family and friends need you
• to have more fun with your body than you thought possi­ble (or even legal)

The best place to start is our GMB Posse, where we keep you updated with free video tuto­ri­als, special work­outs, and other updates and info. Membership is free, and you can join by enter­ing your email address below:

I really like what you GMB fel­las do. As well as the great pro­grams and the excel­lent newslet­ter, I love the humour too. I find it dif­fi­cult to take myself seri­ously most of the time, and I get the impres­sion you do too, which I like. I also love the fact that you haven’t sold your soul to the email spam devil, where you send me a link every day to a new pro­gram by one of your “good bud­dies” who just hap­pens to be giv­ing you a commission.

The Whole Story

Gold Medal Bodies is a curricu­lum of strength and skill build­ing courses created by the GMB Team, Ryan Hurst, Jarlo Ilano, and Andy Fossett. We empha­size prac­tic­ing gymnas­tic skills with the goal of devel­op­ing body control for fitness and sport.

Gold Medal Bodies is a holis­tic approach to build­ing what we call “real strength” - the kind of strength you need for real life. That could mean any number of things to differ­ent people, so we built our GMB Method around the most effec­tive means we know of all-around strength and skill devel­op­ment - gymnas­tic training.

Don’t get confused here, because while we prac­tice gymnas­tic skills, we actu­ally don’t train for Gymnastic Sport.

Gymnastic Sport is a whole thing of its own, complete with rules, uniforms, and a very high-profile event you may have heard of once or twice: The Olympics. We’re not claim­ing to be Olympians, and we won’t promise to turn you into one either. But what we can be sure of is that gymnas­tic train­ing is the most effi­cient method for master­ing the art of learn­ing skills and build­ing the specific strength you need for what­ever it is you need to do in your life.

We’re build­ing this curricu­lum on the foun­da­tion of our years of expe­ri­ence in martial arts, gymnas­tics, yoga, and strength train­ing. Collectively, we’ve taught tens of thou­sands of people around the world through our courses, coach­ing, and live semi­nars. With back­grounds in phys­i­cal ther­apy, educa­tion, and personal train­ing, we not only know how to get results, but we can teach you how to get them safely and consistently.

We believe that fitness is a skill, and it’s a skill we test daily.

Simply put, the Gold Medal isn’t for doing the most work or running the fastest race. It’s for having the strength to do what needs to be done for our loved ones with­out fear of fail­ure or injury.
