    I want you to know how grateful I am to have found you. One of my knees - for no apparent reason - became unstable about 4 years ago and has continued to decline. My orthopedist could offer me no explanation, or even a reliable diagnosis. He wanted to do PRP, but that would be out of pocket and only had a 50% efficacy rate. It never was offered to me that one could increase the cartilage in the joints and improve the strength of the tendons and connective tissue simply by doing the right exercises. This is groundbreaking!
    I have since learned that the estrogen deficiency that accompanies menopause is the actual cause of my knee instability, plus a few mechanics of the way I sit and how much I sit. I thought I would just have to wait for a steady decline until my knee needed to be replaced.
    You showed up in my reels last summer and I committed to doing the exercises you offered freely soon after. My knee is so much more stable and I'm not constantly in fear of it slipping out of joint or my tibial fibular joint popping out while I'm rolling over in bed in my sleep. It looks like those days may be over! I can go on walks again without needing to contract muscles in my thighs to to hold my joint together. I can take steps sideways without it slipping. I can step in and out of the shower instead of carefully sitting on the edge of the tub and swinging my legs over. I can stand on one foot and put on my socks and shoes with strength and stability.
    I've always been very coordinated and strong, so this weakening was so devastating. I hit my 60th birthday last fall, and really resonated with the videos of your mom. If she can run and jump and roll down hills at 70, certainly I can return to pickleball this summer, and dancing and jumping and kneeling while gardening without fear.
    Thank you just isn't enough.
    Oh, and please thank kneesovertoesgirl as well 🙏🏻

    After a decade in and around professional dance I was a K-8 PE teacher for decades in several mid-sized independent schools. We almost never did conventional sports, but used PE as a lab to learn about human mobility and health instead of learning about a few culturally popular sports. Deep squats were how we'd sit, not on benches or chairs. Calisthenics and animal crawls were worked into everything. But perhaps most importantly, I put reflex integration at the center. We used parkour, dance, wrasslin and rough-housing, climbing (trees as well as the climbing wall), and all kinds of games that we created or adapted. From day 1 they learned proper clinical names for any and all aspects of anatomy. I have a minimal online presence but would be happy to share some of my experiences, games, techniques, and more to assist CSU.

    • @TheKneesovertoesguy
      @TheKneesovertoesguy  Před 20 dny +1

      Really appreciate you! Would love to help here! Training the ankles with the tibialis raise & standing/KOT Calf raise can work great for that ankle mobility! I would also work front foot elevation on the split squat and progress from there. This will require less dorsiflexion of the ankle🫡

    Excellent stuff! It's so easy to prevent a whole host of musculoskeletal problems if kids just go through the full range of motion they are naturally capable of doing once a week. If they do this throughout their whole school career they will be just as mobile as a young adult as they were as a young child and hopefully keep it up throughout their lives. Parents and teachers really need to be made aware of this super valuable and super easy way to make a major impact on their kids health. Man, I can't imagine how much less musculoskeletal problems I would now have if I would have just maintained for example a deep squat and bridge once a week from a young age. But I'm working on getting the mobility back. Kneesovertoes is definitely helping with that!

    Thank you for posting this bro. I just popped my calf yesterday running hill sprints and thankfully it seems to be a grade 2 so should only be a few weeks (already feels better the next day) and will start walking tomorrow. Ive been doing Sissy squats and alot of pause squats to strengthen my tendons and such, but this calf strain/tear has made me realized I need to do even more and gonna start implementing this exact regime 1-2x a week moving forward. Ive been huge into strengthening and focusing on stabilizer muscles, tendons and ligament strengthening and collagen synthesis throughout my weight loss journey since last November, but lots more I can do and this video is a perfect Roadmap of how to do that. =D

    @TheJacali Před 26 dny +3

    Hey Ben it’s the foot crush guy! I figured out a way to get INSANELY STRONG hip flexors!
    I can do 1X body weight with my hip flexors!
    I do a seated version where you rest first a dumbbell on your knee. Then lift your leg. It’s a small motion but it’s amazing! I struggled with walking/extended standing so I needed to figure out a way to do it seated. I used a 5lb dumbbell for 6 months, then a 10lb dumbbell for 6 months. Then 20 for 6m. 40lbs for 4-6 months. Then 60lbs for 4 months and finally 80lbs for 6 months. That’s on one leg! And I weight 155 so it’s slightly more than my body weight.
    When you start getting over 20lbs start with the weight right on your hip. Then after a couple months or so move it out onto your knee to increase difficulty. I also suggest when you get over 20lbs to switch from dumbbell to a small bar centred on your thigh. Those 15lb curling bars for home use are perfect 👌
    A great extra tip is that you can roll the weight around on your quads/hip flexors as a massage/warm up.
    All the best my man! ❤

    Love it. This is great. I recently started having leg and knee pain. I’m a massage therapist and the body can be in difficult positions, sometimes with knees over extended-which I know I need to not do.
    I developed a baker’s cyst on the back of my right knee. I have started doing more exercises and stretches, attempting to be strategic. It does help however sometimes I wonder if I am doing damage. Do you have any experience with anyone having a baker’s cyst( being the result of synovial fluid leaking from injured joint, in my case from extremely tight leg muscles)?
    Others feel free to share experiences also, thanks.

Training behind the knee with movements like the nordic curl can be a great tool to use and easy to scale as well! Always hope here!

      I don’t approach specific knee issues, but a routine like this is what has helped thousands address their knee pain.
      If it’s a knee issue, chances are my programs have helped more people with it than any other! Simply because my programs focus on pain-free ability! The more of it you have, the less likely this is to be an issue. This starts as simple as backwards walking and is step 1!

    Hi Ben, is the Slant Board a higher-level progression to use, that is after one has fully regained the ability & strength in quads to be able to lift up without assistance from the shallower squats (< 90° knee flexion level) ???

      I wouldn’t say a higher level of progression, but will make the exercise more knee dominant. Squatting without the slant is also great, and it really depends on what the goal is here. I personally love the slant board squat!
