Power Athlete Post Injury
13 months ago I herniated two discs in my lower back. I couldn’t walk for two weeks and couldn’t walk normal for another two weeks. Once I could move on my own again I started with Power Athletes Bedrock Program at about 10% of my previous 1RM. I worked my way back up paying more attention than ever to the coaching cues John and Tex use for the demos. Life got hectic and I switched to Grindstone and kept moving the dirt a little at a time. Few months ago I switched to their flagship program Field Strong. Today I hit a 15lb lifetime PR on the squat. Their programs work! It’s cutting edge. I’m stronger, faster, and more resilient than I ever have been before!
10 years
Power Athlete is the best combination of programming, knowledge, and motivation. This is my 10th year following their leadership and they better stick around for another 10.
Best Programm in Town
Great and effective training program - on it since 2017.
I absolutely love this program
I absolutely love this program. I’ve switched to several others just for sake of open mindedness. Nothing compared and I’ve made insane gains in the several years I’ve been using power athlete.
The best Strength and Conditioning-ing-ing out there
No bullsh!t, no gimmicks. Power athlete is what every exercise program should be. As a business owner and father, my gym time is limited. Grindstone has saved my ass and kept my body ready for savagery as I get older. Layer on the bonus of the FREE podcast and and these guys will keep you steaming through life.

Most important.....RESULTS!!!
I’ve done several professional training…
I’ve done several professional training programs since starting Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in 2007 and have never had results like I do now after doing power athlete HAMR since December 2021.
I only wish I could have found it sooner. I’m stronger than I’ve ever been and fast. Do it! You won’t regret it.
Peformance Training for a PT
I've been using Power Athlete's Grindstone program on Train Heroic for 3+ years. Navigating the platform is a breeze. The thought and attention to detail in all of Power Athlete's programming (in addition to Grindstone, I've trained on Bedrock, Lean & Able, Third Monkey, and Johnny Bod) is unsurpassed. As a physical therapist by trade, my day job is putting people back together after suffering the effects of local and internet-based fitness gurus. Power Athlete's Methodology serves as the template for restoring my client's ability to train while unlocking a level of performance and athleticism most of them have never reached. If you've had enough of "fitnessing" and are still searching for real results, look no further than Power Athlete's programming.
Thank you Power Athlete
I have been using the power athlete programs for several years now. First with Johnnie WOD and then with HAMR. Both programs are excellent and have vastly improved my fitness level in every way.
I was in a serious car accident recently. My car was completely destroyed in a head on collision with a pick up truck. I got a broken collarbone along with some other minor injuries.
I want to express my gratitude to all the coach’s and staff because I believe it could have been much worse if not for the training you have provided for me over the years.
This may not be why most people train but it is one of the benefits. When things go wrong it is good to have the physical ability to both survive and get out.
So thank you very much. I will be forever grateful and will definitely continue to recommend your programs to everyone I can.
I’m looking forward to eventually getting back to moving the dirt.

I got hooked on CFF 12 years ago and have been using that template (kinda) for over 12 years. Was in a rut, got back to official programming with the field strong metabolic conditioning 11/21 and now on grindstone program.
At 47 yrs old, I’m strong, fast, lean and athletic thanks to Power athlete. Thanks for all the excellent insight and the best programming in da world!

Big fan! Long time follower and first time rater.
John & the crew @ Power Athlete deliver world class training programs, nutrition protocols, education, coaching and they represent everything that is great and amazing on this massive flat earth.
Thanks for your contribution to society and the world. #movethedirt #bethehamner #Welbourné
Get after it.
i started using HAMR, and right now I’m on Jacked Street. Great guidance. Eliminates the need for my notebook with the trainheroic app. Uploading the “masters of movement” videos in the app are great too.
The workouts have been fantastic
The workouts have been fantastic. They are well written with comprehensive guidance on form and execution.
I’ve been PAHQ since CFFB (2009)
I’ve been PAHQ since CFFB (2009). I can honestly say that PAHQ possesses one of the most comprehensive yet simplistic training systems in the world. The way they integrate various principally based methodologies together is something to behold. PAHQ has the capacity to cater to literally any goal you may have no matter you’re starting point. Due to my experience as an athlete within their system, I am capable of things that were once impossible to me. As a PAHQ B1 coach, their educational system is top notch and I am a better coach because of it. I am grateful to have listened to JohnW & Raph back in 2009 when they told me to stick with it.
They could charge more and it would be a terrific value
I love the Grindstone programming. The recommendation by Tex and Sam was perfect and the variation in the program has been great. I haven't gotten injured this year and I attribute that to the variety of ways we hit muscle groups. The community is great too. Coaches in the comments making suggestions and offering help. Fantastic value, fantastic programming. Thank you.
I have had nothing but great…
I have had nothing but great experiences with Power Athlete, their knowledge and coaching is among the best in the business. If you like learning and growing as an athlete you owe it to yourself to give them a try.
Lean and Able
I only did your workouts a few times. I purchased the program after asking some questions about Grindstone VS Lean and Able. I got the podcast response of “Bang Weights and get Jacked” vs “Improve Fitness” like I was buying from a made for TV commercial this of course wasn’t very helpful so I picked L&A because I wanted the free personal consult and nutritional protocol but that never came. I used L&A as my backup program or my active recovery program for the year and called it good.

Best fitness / workout program I have…
Best fitness / workout program I have followed. I use it 5 times a week and have been following the program for almost 3 years now. I have seen gains across all my lifts and feel very solid.
Just an old Firefighters thoughts.
Been with Power Athlete for a number of years and there is a reason for that. The programming is top tier, the community is good people, and the coaching is elite. Helps prep me for my work and life. Nothing but praise for the staff and people of Power Athlete.
Ethos, Pathos, and Logos in spades.
These folks have been part of my life going on a 12 years. I couldn’t feel more confident they provide the most switched on resources for training, nutrition, and life. Furthermore, as I grow as a father, I know I have a access to continue to develop my understanding beyond keeping myself lethal, and can provide my kids with a baseline of strength and athletic development I would have killed for.
