Power Athlete Avaliações 

I really like this plan a lot. Challenging but not impossible like some other RX’d programs. Fun workouts.

Using this program is great, and I’m stoked to find one tapered to jiu jitsu.

The one thing I would change is the ability to pause a workout. For example, if I have a weight routine from the app partnered with Rolling, I usually keep the work out open, till I roll that evening/afternoon. Happy to discuss further if more clarification is required.

Other than that really liking it.

I choose HAMR because being a first responder and being in the position where others rely on my ability to fit and ready I needed a program that mirrors my goals.
HAMR has helped with building strength, overall fitness and being more capable for whatever life throws at me.

Easy to understand, great programming, lots of support and communication

On the Grindstone program again, excellent program that allows for flexibility.

Coach Rob Exline (one of Power Athlete’s Nutrition Ninjas) really had me dialed in on the Performance Nutrition Protocol. With his wealth of experience in nutrition and training backed by the leading minds in the Strength & Conditioning world at Power Athlete, Rob created a flexible but easy-to-follow nutrition protocol that was designed for performance and works really with the Grindstone training program. Didn’t think that building muscle while simultaneously losing fat was possible? It absolutely is as long as you stick to the protocol!

This is exactly the program I’ve been looking for. I’m a 52 year old LEO and did CrossFit for a few years. I’ve built up a nice garage gym and now me and my 17 year old battle each other using the HAMR Program. It’s a great bonding experience for us, I still get to whoop his butt (at most things) and it’s super challenging. As a bonus, we’re from Philly so Fly Eagles Fly!! In all seriousness though, I’ve tried a lot of garage gym programs in the past, and this is by far the best one out there….my opinion.

I had the opportunity of working with Rob to address my nutritional needs and weight loss. He took time to understand my situation and consistently checked in with me to make sure I was constantly progressing to where I needed to be.

I love that dragon slayer is built around someone looking to do jujitsu. I was doing a 5 day programming that had me lifting every day on top of jujitsu and my recovery was never great. I feel so much better cutting down to three heavy lifting days and three light accessory days.

Love the progression and amount of time spent

As with all things Power Athlete offers, Rob delivers great and no BS nutrition advice and programing. He helped me lean out while still being able to perform at my best in the gym. So do yourself a favor, get in touch with him and let this nutrition ninja give your physique and performance the flying heel kick it needs!

I came over to y’alls programming (Jacked Street) from 3ish years running a hypertrophy-based program from a legit dude, and this is light years ahead. 6 weeks in and I’m feeling better and stronger than I have in years. It’s good for the soul banging some heavy free weights vs some soulless machine work. The changes in my body are starting to reveal themselves and it is impressive. Keep moving that dirt, this stuff is f**king legit!

After having completed just under a year with PA split between the HAMR and Jacked Street Programs, I can say from my own experience that it is great programming that will deliver great results. I joined PA after listening to the PA podcast and getting the sense that JW's training philosophy was well informed and effective. That has been validated time and time again as I learn more about training and find that principles and techniques that are new to me have already been incorporated in PA programs. I have maintained strength and lean muscle while significantly improving my work capacity and dropping my body fat percentage from 16 to 12. With that said, workout and exercise instructions, descriptions, and demonstration videos are inconsistent in terms of quality. The Masters of Movement videos PA puts out are great and should be the standard for every exercise in the program, but for some movements you get an un-narrated short clip with no explanation of cues, intended focus areas, etc or nothing at all. The workout leaderboard is a daily comedy show with outliers at the top putting up CF Games level "scores", especially when there is no clear explanation of how a workout should be scored in the workout or exercise descriptions. Worrying about what other people are doing isn't a path to success, but the wild variation in scores does make it harder than it should be to set target goals for AMRAP's or figure out what weight to jump in at for an unfamiliar exercise based on relative position on the leaderboard. The quality of written instructions varies from week to week, with some weeks giving great explanation to purpose of each workout and movement, and some weeks being more platitude heavy. The PA team is very active in the discussion board, which helps with some of these issues for questions that have already been asked but not if the question comes up during a workout. In total, I would recommend PA to anyone looking for well-informed, thoughtful programming that delivers results and I look forward to another year of training with PA.

Love the program but for an active duty light infantrymen the program lacks a periodized endurance component ie long runs or footmarches. That is my only improve. I absolutely love all other aspects and can’t wait to share it with my next unit.

I currently follow Johnnie Wod and love this program. Several friends and I do the SWOD and DWOD together and text each other our weights and times. For the garage gym athlete, it’s the perfect program. While I’ve never written a program for the masses, I would love to see John add some more old school CFFB movements back in like: gassers, ~200m Sprints in the DWOD, burpees and burpee pull-ups, heavy med ball slams, barbell push presses, barbell complexes (clean + push press etc), and maybe add in some more DWOD schemes that include EMOM style or mimic the Chief (ie., work for XX rest for XX, repeat XX times). The DWODs are great, but it does feel sometimes we are repeating similar movements/schemes quite a bit. That is my only critique. Still, thank you for this program John.

I've been following your awesome training over the past 3+ years. You've helped me grow physically (+25lb of needed muscle) and mentally stronger. I've gotten seriously stronger as I creep closer to 40 years of age. I've steered countless lost souls (including family members) to your content in the past few years and will continue to do so in the future. You put out some excellent programming across lots of skill levels that are truly effective at meeting the intended goals. I love the companion podcast that discusses your training philosophy and helps explain the 'why' behind your training methods.

John and the PA crew are fu*kin awesome. They have been building stellar programs for years. I recently jumped on jacked street, after only a few months I need to carry a fire extinguisher with me so my legs don’t rub in my jeans, creating a grass fire, s**t is nuts. But for real, great programing that focuses on tested methods that work. If you wanna get jacked, it’s time to move to Jacked Street!!

I’ve been listening to the power athlete radio since the beginning but didn’t jump into the TrainHeroic app until 2020. Since then it has changed my athleticism to another level. The last phase of jacked street took my physique and performance to the best it’s ever been. I’m an amateur martial artist in karate, boxing and BJJ with 15 years of training. I’m in my mid thirties and this programming has been huge for keeping me injury free and able to train at the highest levels. Thanks to John and the crew at power athlete for all you do!

Started with power athlete as a 45yo recovering distance runner with arthritis and it has been all that and a bag of chips. Still hitting lifetime PRs after 50 as a grandpa. If you are like me and wonder if it’s too late to get really strong, stop wondering and start moving the dirt. Can’t give 10 stars so I’ll give them 5. Thanks power athlete!!

My son and I have been following the power athlete bedrock and field strong programs for about 3 years. He was a 6'1 190 lbs freshman
football player. He just finished his junior football season at
6'2 265lbs. The results of the
bedrock and field strong
program are in my son’s hudl film.

John, Tex and the Power Athlete Team know what they are talking about. No nonsense…no complication…..just results.
