Power Athlete Reviews 258

Been following since CFFB and PAHQ continues to get better every year. They thrive to make their programs as user friendly, engaged, and cutting edge.
Their education programs are phenomenal as well. 5+rockstars

Love Johnnie Wod. Great strength programming combined with bust your a** quick burners at the end. Coming from initially a sports background with poorly programmed bodybuilding workouts, to then a powerlifting focus, followed by CrossFit, I wasn’t really satisfied - either too much fluff , or too strong and terrible shape or too fit but not strong enough. Jwod has been a fantastic middle ground in my opinion - strength and weight circuits for accessory + non boring cardio.

Only request would be if I could pay more for a JWOD+ that perhaps includes a prep component for every workout.

Without a doubt the most comprehensive and well thought out training program for whatever you need. I’ve used countless other programs to prepare for my job in the military and power athlete is the high water mark. Can’t sing their praises enough.

I have always been “fit” in my 12 yrs in the military. Then I started HAMR and it’s taken me to a whole new level!

Been with Power Athlete for about 4-5 years now. Been with Field Strong for the majority of the time. I have never felt stronger and more capable. And still progressing, getting stronger and more athletic. I'm 38 years old and a fireman. 100% the best athletic training i could do for my career, to be an asset to my team and keeps me very capable of doing anything else that is active outside of work.

As a Healthcare IT Director with 3 kids under the age of 12, an hour commute, and no less than 50 hours a week in the office, it was important for me to find something that kept me disciplined, entertained, and hard! Grindstone has been the perfect program. It checks all the boxes, including some I didn't even know where available to me. Plenty of heavy lifting and hypertrophy to make my traps and shoulders the biggest in the boardroom...all while eating breakfast and dinner with my family each day. Get amongst, it, ya'll!

I’ve done PA programming off and on through the years, and it always leaves me wanting more. I’ve competed in Olympic lifting and powerlifting, and I always used PA programs for my off season training because it provides such a comprehensive approach to training. There is a program for everyone, so I highly recommend giving them a try.

Nobody does it like Power Athlete. I’m a CSCS certified personal trainer who gets bored running my own programs, and I can tell you Power Athlete leaves no stone unturned. They have programs to fit whatever goal you have, and the user interface with Train Heroic is the best I’ve used for tracking workouts. I’ll be on a PA program until the end of time - it’s that good.

BE THE HAMMER

As a 49 year old electrician, been in new-construction since '89, I have a bit of wear and tear. Previous non-PAHQ templates or programs seemed to be internally focused-getting better at exercising itself ,which seemed to exacerbate problems and had very little carry over to my " on field performance".

Followed PAHQ 2009 CFFB days then Field Strong in 2015 when the program was hosted on PAHQ website. Hopped over to Jacked Street around January 2022.

These programs get better over time, I believe, due to user feedback and PAHQ's constant pursuit of excellence in posture, position, and performance.

I’ve tried out Field Strong, Jacked Street, HAMR, Third Monkey, and Grindstone over the years and have found each of the programs to be effective at doing what they are designed to do. I’m always drawn back to Field Strong because I feel the most strong and explosive on that program, and really enjoy both the day-specific prep work and movements programmed in conjunction with strength work. My biggest issue is that I feel like I’ve been drinking out of a firehose for the last handful of years with PA’s programming. Every time I think it would be interesting to check out a strength and condition program from somewhere else to change it up a bit I am disappointed with what I get in comparison to PA.

It’s the community that really drives the quality here. The effort put in by the trainers to deliver top level training content is only matched by the many dedicated followers you are training with.
As a home gym owner, I train alone. But I never feel I am alone with this Power Athlete family by my side.

The warmups and movement preparation is humbling. However, the programmings made a big difference in my posture and I am less than a month in. Can’t wait to see where a few years of this goes.

I have had a long, arduous past with infantile weakness and general corpus underdevelopment. In many ways, I have been like the infamous Sisyphus and rolled my rock of secret squirrel programming to not only have it roll back down the hill; but crush me like an ant on the way. No more. Ever since resting in the ever supple PowerathleteHQ bosom, I’ve been carried to new heights by the cherubs of strength that are Mr’s John and Tex. Much like the great stoic philosopher Zeno once said, ‘Well-being is attained little by little..” and boy, do they provide the appropriate dosage daily on Jacked Street. I highly recommend sparing yourself years of toiling and despair as I have experienced, and relinquish your tenuous body over to be rebuilt and renewed for a greater purpose.

Grindstone is really awesome and definitely the best training program I‘ve ever followed! I can perfectly make it fit into my schedule (41 years, 2 kids). Thanks guys. I‘ll be back soon.

Always a great experience, love the workouts, apparel is top notch, and the content they provide on podcasts is unrivaled.

I love the Power Athlete programming. I started back in the CF Football days then strayed away and found myself coming back. It’s nice to feel strong!

Another app I was using would calculate which weight to use based on your previous inputs; I wish this app would do the same.

The Crew never disappoints. I get my gear on time and look Jacked while doing it. The podcasts keep me up to speed with the latest and greatest all while wearing the best gym attire possible.

Man I love this workout program. I really appreciate the emphasis on objective strength but also the short, heavy, and fast METCONs at the end. It’s perfect for dudes that want to be in shape but also have some mass. The variety is good too; I usually get bored on programs within a few months. Not so with this one. Absolutely love it. Thanks for the effort you put into this.

I love PAHQ, you all have made me a better coach and athlete. The only feedback I have is sometimes things can get repetitive. I’m not saying the exercises although those floor press/flies are getting old, it’s how we did the three ish cycles of shadow. Even though shadow itself was brilliant, I just feel we did it for a long time and the concept got old. Other than that love what you do keep it up.

I’ve used PA programming since 2016. I’ve tried others off and on but always come back to Jonnie Wod. As an Ibew Journeyman Lineman it just fits my busy lifestyle. Power Athlete Radio Podcast has now become my go-to listening lately. Keep up the great work.
