The GMB Crew. It’s totally possible to be strong without wearing athletic clothing in public.
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)

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.
