Military Program Review

Absolutely love this program! I am a gym owner and design each of my clients program tailored specifically to them. So when it comes to my time to workout, I’m mentally shot therefore would program just the basics for me to move that day… However Josh’s Military program KICKS MY BUTT! I’m in the best shape of my life and it is also designed in a way that targets every muscle and amazing gut check cardio. It is methodically designed- very well done! I cannot speak more highly of this program, how it is designed each week, the app is easy to use, customer service is prompt and professional. 5 ⭐️!!

PayHim programming

I have tried other programming and started PayHim in 2019. You will not find a more comprehensive set of programming for you to reach your goals than this. While following the strength programming at the age of 55 I achieved a 500# deadlift, 410# back squat and a 285# bench press. Do yourself a favor and join the squad and achieve your goals.

Perfect training method

I loved training when following Josh’s training program, I got really good progress and felt strong and confident. I got to PAY HIM
Unfortunatelly my economic situation had forced me to cancle the membership, but I keep the methodology in my mind and train in the same way. Josh has helped me to move to bigger goals in both training and everyday life.

Great Program

I wish I had this style of coaching and training when I was still in the Marines. I think the programming is well suited for the every active/reservist member or people like me just wanting to meet the standard even as a civilian.

Keeps me Strong

Love this programming. I use Military and mix in both strength and power hour wods throughout the week. As a 57 year old law enforcement officer these wods keep me strong both physically and mentally. As a masters CrossFitt athlete (135 world wide in 2024) , I needed work outs to keep me motivated and these programs to just that. Thanks to Josh and the team !

Want to get fit, get that program

I am nearly 42 years old and I am on that program for already 7 months with a goal of performing for a 48h military challenge similar to Goruck Selection but in France in 2026. This program delivers what it says it does. You get stronger, more stamina and get mentally challenged. The sessions can be long so I adjust sometimes with Power Hour which delivers a great workout as well. Just by doing this program alone, I still perform on events like Hyrox (under 1h15 in Pro) and ran a half marathon with a 10 weighted vest in 2 hours. So, yes this program will get you to where you want to be if you want to be strong and fit. I won't probably do that program forever because it can be taxing mentally and physically ( will probably switch to LFG at some point) but until I get to my challenge, I will go with it. Cheers from France. Mickael

Loved the programming

I was a huge fan of the program. The downside I didn’t have access to all the equipment and locations needed for all the training. I’ll be purchasing again when I get home that’s for sure.

Amazing!

I have been following Josh bridges workouts for several years now. I started out doing the tactical athlete program. I loved it but thought I could be training different. I switched to the military athlete program and it’s EXACTLY what I needed. Perfect for my line of work (department of corrections tactical team). I’ve also lost about 40 pounds since I started this program!!

Well rounded programming

This programming is well rounded hitting all areas of fitness. It’s a great physical and mental challenge but also fun.

First Responder Program

This program is the best program out there. It strictly focuses on conditioning as well as staying strong. I would argue that this could be considered a mental prep program as well. Nothing beats getting your **** kicked by this program that was created by such a badass dude. Every workout is based on functional movements that has personally helped me prep for the fire academy. I’ve never felt so conditioned and strong at the same time as I do now following this program. Give this a try! Always remember that the man always needs his payments for rent because rent is always due!

Solid Easy to Follow Programming That Serves Its Purpose

Loving the Military Athlete Program. The whole program is solid and easy to follow, and the additional add-ons (competitor, power hour, and strength) are super helpful when flexibility is required or if want to pair them with other training.

Also knowing Josh is always getting after it and doing similar workouts is a good kick in the butt when needed.

Okay programming but not for people with garage gyms

This programming is decent but there are too many rope climbs incorporated. I would assume the majority or people don’t have a 15 foot rope in their garage so this programming is only good for people who have access to a full CrossFit gym. I had to choose other programming cause of always having to substitute movements for the rope climbs and sled pushes. My garage doesn’t have the space and my CrossFit gym has too many people and is more focused for people taking classes not for people doing their own programming

Excellent Programming

As a career firefighter, my physical condition and performance is crucial for operating in various emergency situations. The Military Athlete Program mimics many of the same movements performed in the field. The citizens I serve deserve the best version of myself possible, and this program has helped me achieve that goal. I look forward to paying the man and getting after it each day!
