90 Days of Knees Over Toes UNLOCKED My Sh*t

[@great_gravity]

I’m about 6 months into Knees Over Toes programming and my knees feel fantastic. Getting a small sled that I pull in my street has been the best home gym purchase I’ve ever made.

[@SamKalirai]

Do you just do it on the concrete?

[@LifeofRip]

Im glad i live in the country. The sles gets loud on concrete

[@SpenSahDude]

What sled did you purchase to use on the street? I’ve been interested in purchasing one but didn’t want to mark up the asphalt or make too much noise.

I really like this guy because he keeps it real and doesn’t sugarcoat everything to make it seem easy and pain free (both physically and psychologically). Progress is trial and error, two steps forward one step back, and this guy really captures what actually happens to you when you try to improve. Well done!

[@brianbarton4619]

fun thing to notice, how he injured himself, and was able to build better knees post injury. so many people get one injury and say "oh, i guess my whole body is broken now." move your body folks, its an amazing piece of equipment.

[@LuKorvette]

Exactly! Imagine if he'd injured himself without being in the middle of doing the training or completely stopping after being injured. The injury possibly would have been much worse and definitely more debilitating to his overall wellness.

[@ElSings]

This so great to note about other injuries and especially surgeries too! Especially with ACL tear surgeries, you need to get moving the day of or the day after surgery so you don’t lock up and get scar tissue, because blood moving towards the injured area gives nutrients and oxygen needed for healing. Very important to move!

[@carl_anderson9315]

Yeah the program allows you to recover incredibly fast and to get back on track easily. So if you hurt yourself on day 90 you just regress for a couple of weeks to day 10 and you’ll be able to restart at day 90 and continue your progress.

[@deathuponusalll]

A lot of people think getting all these aches and pains are just a fact of life and to get used to it. I’m barely learning most of this pain is from lack of conditioning and strength, which CAN be improved.

Amazing. I'm studying to be an Athletic Trainer (literally an exercise rehab coach) and this is exactly what we try to give people. Simple, easy to execute plans that TRANSFORM your ability to do the things you love. This is where the special is. Getting people back to the things that bring them meaning and joy. Super glad this one worked out for you!

[@ericmalitz]

Cmon. Your mix of half squats, Bulgarians, battle ropes, box jumps, and McGill’s big 3 aren’t going to transform anything.

[@andrewpeachey5416]

Those movements have their place at times. But so do power cleans, deadlifts, kettlebell swings, rowing, eccentric hamstring work. There's an enormous world of restorative exercise and any trainer worth their salt will scale their coaching based on the needs and demands of the scenario

[@ericmalitz]

The exact kind of reply I’d expect 😂 So “demands of the scenario” dictate getting out of knee pain? See the guy in this video? Do you think any exercises you named are going to “restore” let alone “transform” his abilities? Hint: no.

[@andrewpeachey5416]

To be fair, this video literally demonstrates someone following a program of specific movements and seeing a significant difference in his before and after. I'm not advocating for any specific exercises, like I said there's a huge range. But I'm not sure what to tell you if you just watched this video, saw his improvement and you don't think exercise interventions can help. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@Healthfighthunt]

I was told never to run or jump again 25 years ago. I am 52 and pushed the cars out of the driveway and shot hoops like the old days, after the 12 week zero program. Forever will I sing Bens praises at every opportunity for the miracle that is KOT. Nice work brother.

[@tillytogs]

This guy is already pumped so easy peasey. I'm a 68 year old woman with knee osteoarthritis and LCL injury I have been doing squats and horse stance for two long ruining my knees. I'm walking backwards now on incline and find that helps a lot. I'm not planning on hoops or high jumps just building the muscles to protect my knees😊

I've watched six fitness/knee repair videos today and you're the only one who understands how to use music in a video. You'd think the concept of "turn the music volume down when the narrator is talking, and up when he's not" wouldn't be some hidden secret, but apparently it is the Holy Grail itself.

[@ShawnGdoubleL1313]

I just watched this and I must admit. For YEARS doctors and people were in the 'no knee over toe's bandwagon. The secret is in the feet! I came here to talk about your jump, if you haven't figured it out yet. You developed all that strength and agility and didn't see, what I thought , to be good gains. It's all in your form. Watch a jump video and unleash all that hard work you did! I look forward to using this once I heal from a recent surgery. Good luck!

[@Dragi05]

Nice work! Also great mentality not giving up when you had an injury. I love these kind of success stories. I know I'm a stranger, but I'm proud of you!

[@TheKnicks2012]

Awesome video! For the rim touching, I think it’s because you stop your momentum when you jump to jump which gives you less lift off. Think you could easily get a bit higher if you stride and lift off into it. We might need a “I learned how to dunk” video

[@ryanmartin5456]

Probs take years

[@FoolProof777]

⁠@@ryanmartin5456His mechanics are so ass right now he could get easily get a couple more inches immediately just by learning how to jump. From there if he kept doing this work and add in plyos, he could get there in 1-1.5 years of dedicated effort I bet

Also the angle he approaches rim.

Could help to get more speed by starting further out and dipping slightly on the last two steps. Still working on the consistency myself!

Came here to suggest a video. It'd be good to see a 30 day boxing challenge - You light spar on your first day, spend 30 days working on your boxing and light spar again to see the improvement. I think the training, progression and technique would be really good to see.

[@KDemosh]

I've done these workouts too and I only had light knee pains prior (minus a wrong sized bike-NEVER get a bike that isn't your size) and my knees and mobility feel stable and no pain in dynamic movements. I highly recommend wide toe box zero drop shoes and these knee strengthening exercises!

[@DaveDEF82]

Most of the video he is wearing a pair of Feelgrounds Courtside... Those are barefoot shoes. It's the pair that looks like Panda Nikes.

[@Shambolic2000]

I second this. I do kneesovertoes exercises, which are great and help a lot. Switched all my shoes, work and casual to barefoot shoes recently, and after a month of no exercise, went back to the gym and found that all the ATG stuff was easier than before the break! Amazing difference! I also recommend toe spacers(used correctly for brief periods)

[@Mrfantashtic]

[@lbo2cdg321]

Please search up corexcell sports training and rehab. I also been doing it for a year, but the way to jump higher is to do plyometrics. Corexcell also goes into ankles stability that takes pressure off the tib.

[@dave.thedev]

This 👆👆 Ben's programs aren't backed by science, overlengthening the tendons, and he doesn't program hardly any plyometrics which will actually help Tendon elasticity for athleticism. Ben's programs will maybe alleviate pain for a while but if you jump into sports your body won't be prepared for the demands of sport. They can actually lead to more injuries and don't do much for athleticism. PJF Performance, Strong by Science, The Movement System, Nathanael Morton, THP Strength are all much better alternatives and they know what they're talking about.

you can easily touch the rim if you change the way you jump. you take a few steps back to get speed only to stop to do a small jump and then do the "real" jump. you basically take all the speed out of it, might aswell just jump while standing.

My Multiple Sclerosis made my left leg sloooooow and I kicked the ground super hard a couple of times, trashing my knee. After a few weeks of rest I was able to east back in to KneesOverToes and regain the knee ability and movement I had before that run. I love Ben Patrick's program! I still can't run yet.
