This guy basically said in the beginning of the video Ben Patrick doesn’t coach RDLs…. Huh
Thank you for this video!! This is exactly how I want shoe reviews to look like. Loved you showing the shoe in different workouts and explaining everything along the way. Was the updated pair any better? And did/will you try the 2.0? Appreciate you!
Thanks! means a lot! I haven't tried the next version, they said they were going to send it to me actually, I should follow up 😝
Hey Josh, I am dealing with this same injury and on week 5 of KOT + hip strengthening. How long did it take you to feel a difference in walking and standing? Thanks !
Walking and standing never really caused pain or weird knee feelings for me. Reverse sled pulls or backwards walking up a hill was what wound up working best! (i pull tires backwards at a football field by my house now) Floss bands also helped a ton (just search knee flossing)
Are you kidding me? I just paid 160 for the same computer that I gotta spec myself even with an SSD. Yesterday.
Are you kidding me? I just paid 160 for the same computer that I gotta spec myself even with an SSD.
Hi there Josh, I am keen to get an update of your journey with this book and its activities. Are you still including these in your daily routines..?
Hey! The tibialis curls are probably the only thing from this book i still consistently do. However, other KOT exercises like sled pulls and flossing i do still do multiple times per week! Especially since picking up running and getting runner's knee when I started going 30+ miles/week
Thanks for this!
Thanks for watching!
Shoutout topline
Absolutely, best gym in MKE!
i want a barefoot shoe for fencing :/
Are these exercises useful for someone with a cruciate ligament tear?
I am from Milwaukee and people with there heads up there asses offer free stuff that’s crap hay bales pallets what the fuck is wrong with you morons
other than the foot-shaped toe box, minimal shoes aren't really realistic for a lot of sport. there is just too much lateral movement on surfaces that the human body isn't used to (especially cement) for it to work out. so i'll be sticking with tennis shoes for tennis, lifting shoes for squats but i may get a minimal shoe for my sled and plyo work
I basically just use them for lifting now. Running or basketball gets the appropriate shoe
I agree but my problem is I really want a shoe that’s basically a barefoot being flat without a heel. I find it puts unnecessary stress on my ankle when moving forward or sliding forward. My search is not looking bright
@@JoshThrives theres a new version now
V2 is out! My main concern would be having enough cushion for all the impact
I wonder why does it need strings at all, couldnt it just be strap based? like 2 pronged strap (1 towards the toes, the other towards the ankles)
Interesting video but why the mask? No one else is wearing one in the vid.
What do you use for your regular basketball shoes? I'm looking for a quality basketball shoe with not too much cushion.
This video changed my life.
For your lunges you need to move your lead foot out much more. You’re a little too bunched up. You want your lead foot to remain flat the entire time. I’m a fellow KOT guy
They also said that these first prototypes are not for playing basketball
They actually tell you to get 11s if you wear a normal 9 and a half
As an ATG member these are now selling for $80. Would you say worth it for $80, also considering the model2 doesn't ship for another 2 months or so? I have some bunion issues and I'm looking for a very wide toe box shoe that could even accommodate the ATG toe spacer.
I have model 2. It's great
@@freshj6358does it have more cushion ??
This is my first time checking out your channel. Thank you for showing your routine. I'm a senior on a fixed income and I can't afford KOT subscription. Patrick is changing and improving my life. I have a few questions. I started working out a few months ago and I think I overdid my squats per day. My knees started hurting. I quit everything to rest them. Can I do the tib raises more than once a day? When I do the thing where one leg is straight and I bend the other, one knee feels WONKY but not painful. Should I continue or stop? How long should I do the sled? I have a tendency to overdo things. Can I do the sled too long? I really liked it. I wanted to do it longer than 10 minutes. Thanks for your video.
This review was helpful to me as someone who was considering these for actually playing basketball. I like barefoot shoes but for basketball, you definitely need a bit more cushion (even if less than most bball shoes). Will you be purchasing the 2.0 version they are shipping in February? I'm hoping they solve most of these issues...
Any update on the version 2’s in terms of the cushion/impact protection when playing basketball?
if you wear socks you're losing the effect of spreading your toes. Get used to it wearing it at home first and if you can get toe socks. Those are not acceptable if breake soon, over 100€ you can get another barefoot shoes: Anatomic4all, Lems, Vivobarefoot, Belenka and Saguaro.
Hey josh great video and demonstrating the atg. just one thing that you said i dont agree with and im sure ben also does not agree is that you said in 07:05 "the more flexible you are the less likely you are to injure." because you can be injured quite heavily from being too flexible and not strong enough in some muscles.
I absolutely love that you covered this! Wide toe box zero drop shoes should be a thing! Have you seen some nba players feet!? I play tennis and some basketball, plus weight lifting and I'm so sad that there aren't wide toe box zero drop shoes out there that have some cushion and wide base for lateral stability.
Yeah, NBA feet are not a pretty sight! 🙈
there are plenty of shoes out there like that. Altra are the brand I wear but there are a lot of others
The course link doesn't work as of November 27, 2023? is there an alterante link or place to find it?

My parents upgraded from their G5 iMac to a Late 2013 iMac and it’s still going strong even 10 years later!
How is it doing today??
@@Nini0915 Both of them are in great condition. I am planning to upgrade them to the Apple Silicon iMac Pro when that releases
Xero 360 is the best barefoot shoe for court sports because it was made for it.
I own them, there’s no way you want to wear that shoe in a competitive basketball game
@@jfitness432 I have and I dominate
I love my adidas samba originals. If they they had a foot shaped toe box they would be perfect.
I want a wide toe box / flat basketball show with more sole and cushioning for impact.
Yes this is exactly what I’d like to have. The v2 is ready to buy not sure if it meets those needs. They don’t have my size yet. Lmk if it’s legit
What's the width of the shoe's toebox in your size?
this guy underrated as bro HOW THIS MAN ONLY HAVE 6.56K
Good review. I also wear 9.5 (and my foot is not wide, probably more narrow/medium), so this let me know how it would fit. Sounds like that first pair was not made well. And I hate those round 'cottony' type laces--they never stay tied. I know that Vibram also makes some flat types of shoes. I wish more stores carried them (I'm hesitant to guess at shoe size for an amazon purchase).
Are you still using it? I bought a 2012 machine a few weeks ago, absolutely love it, surprised how fast it still is!
Great review, very in-depth and informative. Thanks!
Where did you get that "THRIVE" T shirt, its dope. Also great video.
Thanks! I make the thrive shirts :D
Just ordered it yesterday. Bingeing your videos on KOT right now lol
Everything you said in the beginning is so relatable. I’ve been lifting hard for over a year, walking 15,000 plus steps/day most of my adult life, etc. My fear has always been loss of mobility. Then one day I felt pain at the back of my knee. Then it locked. And then locked again, etc. 3 weeks later- torn meniscus in both knees and grade 3 and 4 chondromalacia patella with osteophytes. Supposed to discuss surgery tomorrow, but I’m not just going to accept that.
How did you pick what days you did ATG compared to Sinister?
most days i did both!
You should get a canvas cloth that you can lay down on the ground and paint the stuff that you put on top of the canvas.
Didn’t comment on the durabilité aspect. And can they work for tennis
They would probably be pretty good, I don't play tennis though so I don't know what makes a good tennis shoe specifically. I guess I didn't make a title/text on screen, but talking about the ripping showed where it lacked durability
Im sorry i meant the durability out the outsole. Will the rubber last etc. Thank you for your reply. Great review
Thanks for your review. Definitely food for thought and would love to see your follow up video, when you receive the new pair.
Putting a short up soon!
@@JoshThrivesDid you put it up? I can't see it on your page.
What’s the best minimalist shoe that you would recommend for baeketball ?
I'm not sure; I just wear regular basketball shoes. I mean this KOT shoe isn't bad, like I said
Kobe ad nxt 360 and converse all star pro bb
Wow, what a great review! I wish i would have watched this before ordering. It seems their customer service email is pretty backed up and they have not responded to my inquiry. I wear a size 10 in altra and xero shoes (which means I followed the altra and xero advice to allow some space between largest toe and front of shoe) and I am not sure if I just should have ordered a size 10 or follow their advice to size up to an 11. I ended up ordering size 11 and I am really hoping they aren't too big and feel like clown shoes on my feet. I too ordered to support a movement for healthier training/ basketball shoe but have not tried out the knees over toes regimen. Thank you for creating this video, i have followed your channel and look forward to learning more stuff from your videos
Thanks for such a thoughtful comment! Yeah their current restock seems to be more true to size, so I'm optimistic yours will fit well! They DM'd me and sent me a new pair size 10 that fit perfect now
@@JoshThrives Of course, thank you for your response. I am a size 10, do you think I should have gone with their size 10? I followed their instruction to go up to size 11 since I use size 10
@@hood4thought699 I'm not sure if their sizing guidelines changed for their most recent batch, so i don't know. They used to have only sized 10-13 but now have size 9 too, so i'm not sure if every size just got a bit more snug so they can now call the 10 a 9 now, or if the numbers are still accurate to the batch where they were telling people to size up. (idk if that makes sense haha) You should be able to exchange it if it doesn't fit, they were super easy to work with imo
@@JoshThrives I hope so! Although I have heard they don't accept as many refunds as many would like since they are still a small operation. It may have been that they exchanged yours since your video can be very useful for their brand's promotion. It would be a pain to have spent this money on shoes I cannot wear ! 🥴Hoping for the best!
Thanks for the review! Have you tried Vivos before? My Primus Lite 3s have held up remarkably well, on 2.5 years, and still going strong (with some wear finally starting to emerge).
I haven't! I'd been considering them strongly for when my lifting shoes finally broke down, but then these came out. Thanks for the comment!
@@JoshThrives Awesome! Well, give them a try next time you're in the market for some new shoes. Also, stoked to see some new fitness/KOT content from you!
I’m thinking about getting the Primus Lite 3s but I’m also a 9.5 so I’m in between sizes. So idk what to get.
@@sevegarza Go larger; I'm in the same boat. Too small defeats the purpose of the shoe. Or you could order both and return whichever fits less well. Vivobarefoot offers a 100-day return policy - even if you've worn them all 100 days!
Bro thx for the review. It actually looks better in your video than in the pictures.
I appreciate it! Yeah I get what you mean. The all black one they just sent me looks even better/more normal haha
