HaPPy BirTHday Ben. Im 63 w some knee pain cos half of my life i was morbidly obese. Now lean & muscular w lifestyle & mental changes to age gracefully. Doing yoga, pilates, bodyArt, & gym workouts to give myself a boost! Definitely reaping enormous rewards fr the altered lifestyle ❤. Wishing you & family members a beautiful Sunday fr Singapore 🇸🇬 ❤️
I don’t know if you remember me, but thanks to you, you got rid of my knee pain. There is just very very very little pain and I get a little uncomfortable when I I sit they still crack too and I will still your exercises to get rid of it, but I can run, jump, squat, leg press, and do leg days without any pain, like NO pain 0%. Thank you!!!
Happy Birthday!! Thank you for what you’ve created. Changed my life & many people on my life who I have put onto your program. Truly life changing! 👊🏾 ❤️
@@TheKneesovertoesguy thank you! 51, tore my patella, used to jump 45” playing University basketball & I could barely walk or touch my toes at Christmas. Back was always in pain. I can almost put my palms to the floor. Flexibility & strength immediately started improving. Back pain disappeared. Watched the video you did with Dr. Paul Saladino. Everything makes so much sense. Excited to see my kids using the principles & what their athleticism at 18 & 20 will be like when it’s unlocked! Most importantly they’ll be bulletproof for life! It’s an incredible gift. Truly. Keep going no matter what! This should be taught in all sports & life. Naysayers are simply foolish.
I'm in Alaska. Even at - 25F this last winter I did sled pulls. At 50yrs old I can hike up/down mountains for bear hunting, wade through thigh high rivers for fishing season with no wobbly knees, and squat in my garden all day. Your program has maximized functional Alaska living!
Hey Ben. Love what you are doing. I've been skateboarding for about 20yrs now, and at 37 years old i am definitely starting to feel some pain in my knees. Seeing your content gives me hope that i will be able to do what i love as long as possible. I will definitely be adding these into my workout plan. Thank you for what you do!
I've been skateboarding since my teens as well and I am 41 now. I partially tore my patellar tendon 3 years ago after ignoring patellar tendonitis and just skating through it. ATG's full range of motion strength training while scaffolding it pain free has helped a lot. It's actually what I've been missing for 10 years or so which probably led to the injury in the first place. I saw your comment and I just figured I'd give a fellow skater some hope. After all of this physical self improvement, I don't feel 41, at all. LOL Keep going brother.
I really enjoy your content....I have discovered you several months ago when I had a minor injury during heavy leg workouts really put stress on my ligament on my knee and Im an er nurse Tweaked it at work got sent home and had rehab. I dont think I ever had knee exercise during rehab like the ones you mention . Now Im seeing more peeps at my gym doing your knee movement and mobility... yes please do more content on your principles of importance of prevention and mobility
Happy birthday brother , you’ve helped me aswell as plenty of other people I know. I truly appreciate all of the amazing work you have done , keep doing what you’re doing and I hope you reap the fruits of your labor and have an amazing year 🤝
Thank you for this video. It would be really helpful if you could please recommend body weight exercises for knees if one doesn't have access to machines. Also I love hiking but had a ligament tear 20 years back for left knee and though I don't have any pain, the current x ray so reduced space between the joints. I don't want to stop hiking. Could you please suggest me exercises to strengthen knee overall with ligaments so that reduced gap doesn't affect my hiking. Would be eternally grateful 🙏
@@TheKneesovertoesguy thank you so much. This is helpful. In the link, which exercises strengthen the back of knees and back of hips ? That's one part I got slightly confused. Also whether buying book is same as app videos ?
Happy Birthday! I can’t tell you how much your program has changed not only my knees, but even my posture! I’m truly thankful for what you have worked so hard to build.
Happy Birthday BEN (Belated). I love how you have included your whole family. It would be a dream come true for me. ❤❤. As a fitness coach, am using your free program to help very many clients who suffer from Knee and back pain. Thank you so much for your BIG heart plus so much gratitude goes out to your WIFE, Allisa, GROWING side by side as you build and create such a global impact. Greetings from Uganda ❤
I’m still trying to get out of the hole , I use to be a complete beast , shredded . Rehab my own knee with your advice step downs and backwards walking up small hills . I’ll keep fighting upper body is easy , now I want to build legs all day . Thanks 4 tha motivation .
This is a bit unrelated but how do you prevent middle back pain? I do back extensions, jefferson’s, and seated good mornings but my middle back will ache from time to time. I do seated cable rows with a close grip attachment which absolutely annihilates the middle back but it seems to take days on end to recover and it’s been this way for months. Any tips? Appreciate all the work you do; you’ve absolutely changed my life and my comfortability in my body.
Appreciate your comment and support! Have a video covering everything I know about the lower back, but these movements will also address the middle back as well. Strengthening here, can help with soreness and improve recovery: Everything I Know About The Lower Back czcams.com/video/gtXb2updm3I/video.html

Happy birthday! You have helped so many people! I tweaked my knee about 2 months ago and it hasn’t gotten better. At a young 66 I refuse surgery. I ordered a weight pulling belt and have been walking big circles pulling a 50 pound weight in my house😊and I know I need to go to the next level but have nowhere to walk backwards and no gym in our small town so I’m trying to talk my husband into your treadmill. My grandson follows you and swears by everything you teach!
@@TheKneesovertoesguy it would be awesome if your wife would lead a live showing women how to maintain their figure after having kids. That a whole lot of women out there that can benefit from her expertise and knowledge as an athlete. I believe she can strategically bring you many new female clients. I’m impressed by your family brand. I Would like to see your wife create a healing based fitness regimen for mommies post natal recovery and growth. That would be awesome Ben!! Again yesterdays live was awesome.
Happy birthday dude! Making a video like this even on your day shows character! Thank you for making these videos, your workouts have changed my leg and shoulder health insanely well
I've done some of Ben's basic exercises for a week & I'm pretty much pain free, now I'll go through Ben's videos and worksheets & figure out a routine for me, now all I need is to figure out how to fix this achilles issue so I can get back to working out again.
That’s awesome! Rooting for you! Checkout the Ankle Ability Routine I sent you! Can work great for the Achilles: www.atgonlinecoaching.com/articles/ankle-ability-exercise-routine
Hello is there a video about arthritis pain I want to return back to my sport I am 22 and have had multiple injuries in my left knee (2 meniscus tears and a knee dislocation as well as a small mpfl tear) last injury was December 2023
Sorry to hear about the arthritis pain! Although we don’t approach specific knee issues we do approach with a route of pain-free ability. More of it you have, less likely this will be an issue. Has helped members confront these same knee issues: kneesovertoesguy.medium.com/confronting-the-1-2-3-of-cartilage-arthritis-knee-replacement-b9882d3c93c6 Always hope here🫡
I fangirled when my gym had a ATG sled and backwards treadmill. Just beginning to use them and excited to see my knees get stronger. I'm a young nurse and don't want the knee issues my colleagues have!
1) Does the ATG sled come with the long bars seen here? 2) How much does the sled itself weigh? I don’t have access to turf so my only option would be to take it to a field.
Yep, ATG Sled does come with the long bars you see here, the sled itself weighs 75 lbs. Cab learn more about product details here: atgequipment.com/products/atg-drag-sled
Oh shoot, if you have pain here, I would try elevating the front foot more and adding assistance. I would also checkout the hip mobility standards here: 5 ATG Hip Mobility Standards czcams.com/video/p2VNYdKU7jU/video.html
Yep! I closed the public gym when Covid happened over 4 years ago. I moved. Worked from home. I’ve returned and made this gym for my staff and for ATG coaches around the world to visit for free. The zoning of this space doesn’t allow paid visitors / memberships. However we are closing on our own land nearby so I can make a true ATG HQ where people can visit. 🙏
Hi Ben, I recently had an MRI and was diagnosed with medial knee arthritis. I have pain walking, especially downstairs. Do you find these exercises have helped people with this type of arthritis? Much appreciated and thank you for the video.
Thanks for reaching out! No guarantees, but definitely have helped members with these same knee concerns with their knee ability and it all starts with simply backwards walking! I would checkout both of these articles: kneesovertoesguy.medium.com/confronting-the-1-2-3-of-cartilage-arthritis-knee-replacement-b9882d3c93c6 www.atgonlinecoaching.com/articles/knee-ability-zero-basics-pro
Does my diet affect the strengthening of my knees? Like should I be bulking or eating high amounts of protein to gain the optimal amount of strength? Also, I really appreciate u guys replying and answering to every comment ❤
Good question, we don’t like to dive too much into the diet. Everyone will be different. But generally eating a whole foods diet will be beneficial for building strength and recovering from training.
Have a Standards Program which covers all our standards for movements that we use! Can learn more about that program and coaching here: atgonlinecoaching.com
Hello! I am a swedish woman with pain in booth knees. My question is; for how long skall I do the different exercises? Is there any place in Sweden I can get help with your program? Barbro 9:07
Everyone is different and the time it takes for one person may be different from someone else. Fortunately we also include zero equipment programs as well which address the knee. Would checkout this video: czcams.com/video/N3PuDpFocTQ/video.htmlsi=iB4lydYXQnI5UBbr For coaching and guidance through this as well can also checkout atgonlinecoaching.com
Ben still getting a workout and video up on his birthday. 👏🏻 👏🏻 Wild to see a bunch of the people who are affected by your vision becoming a reality in a single room. Happy Birthday Ben!! 🥳 🎂 🎉
Do you have a video about how to reduce knee pain during leg workouts? It seems like after leg press and leg extension that my knees are aching and walking up/down stairs is hell. I’m also only 15…
This video covers how I would address the knee. A quick fix as well could be knee flossing: How to Floss Your Knee czcams.com/video/HI0cZGdOV5E/video.html Do this along with reverse sled before a workout and it could work like magic!
Would love to help out! Can’t advise when to start, but if you can walk, you can begin with step 1 which is backwards walking! Have helped members with this knee issue and would love to guide you through it as well! Can checkout our route of knee ability here: www.atgonlinecoaching.com/articles/knee-ability-zero-basics-pro
Ben great video. Would love to see you add a donate button to your You Tube Channel. Especially for us retired who might not be able to pay 50.00 a month
Clever idea! But not quite the same, as you are not strengthening from the ground up and building through the foot like you would with actually walking. It’s a good idea, some properties might carryover. But nothing seems to beat sled or the backward treadmill for improving pain-free knee ability! That being said, don’t underestimate simply backwards walking alone! Has helped thousands improve their knees!
@@TheKneesovertoesguy Thank you. The reason I that I asked was because it could have been a good alternative for people who enjoy working out at home but who have limited space. The other option I though of was walking backwards and forwards using resistance bands attached to something static. Thank you, by the way, you've helped me with improving knee strength and reducing susceptibility to injuries, as I know you have helped countless others. You really are improving peoples lives.
Hey man, I’m a PE teacher and would love to implement your stuff into my program. What would be your top movements for maybe like a 5 min warmup to begin class?
Happy late Birthday! If you are slowly piecing together ATG home gym (I have sled, ATG buddies and tib bar) would you rate mobility box or Nordic bench next on the list to get?
The best gift 🎉healthy lifestyle 😊
Absolutely!!

Hello! I am a swedish woman with pain in booth knees. My question is; for how long skall I do the different exercises? Is there any place in Sweden I can get help with your program? Barbro 9:07
Everyone is different and the time it takes for one person may be different from someone else. Fortunately we also include zero equipment programs as well which address the knee. Would checkout this video: czcams.com/video/N3PuDpFocTQ/video.htmlsi=iB4lydYXQnI5UBbr
For coaching and guidance through this as well can also checkout atgonlinecoaching.com
Happy Birthday loved😊 the video have a great day You and your family🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Thank you! You too!
Ben still getting a workout and video up on his birthday. 👏🏻 👏🏻
Wild to see a bunch of the people who are affected by your vision becoming a reality in a single room. Happy Birthday Ben!! 🥳 🎂 🎉
Thank you so much!
Do you have a video about how to reduce knee pain during leg workouts? It seems like after leg press and leg extension that my knees are aching and walking up/down stairs is hell. I’m also only 15…
This video covers how I would address the knee. A quick fix as well could be knee flossing: How to Floss Your Knee

Do this along with reverse sled before a workout and it could work like magic!
@TheKneesovertoesguy whats the sled pull belt you are wearing. The beige belt, it looks like spud belt.
This is our own ATG Sled Strap which you can find here: atgequipment.com/products/atg-sled-strap
I have a torn medial meniscus and want to avoid surgery. It s very painful now. When and how do I start rehab?
Would love to help out! Can’t advise when to start, but if you can walk, you can begin with step 1 which is backwards walking! Have helped members with this knee issue and would love to guide you through it as well! Can checkout our route of knee ability here: www.atgonlinecoaching.com/articles/knee-ability-zero-basics-pro
Ben great video. Would love to see you add a donate button to your You Tube Channel. Especially for us retired who might not be able to pay 50.00 a month
Really appreciate it! Love making this content easily accessible and free!
Would peddling backwards on an exercise bike also have benefits similar to walking backwards?
Thanks.
Clever idea! But not quite the same, as you are not strengthening from the ground up and building through the foot like you would with actually walking. It’s a good idea, some properties might carryover. But nothing seems to beat sled or the backward treadmill for improving pain-free knee ability! That being said, don’t underestimate simply backwards walking alone! Has helped thousands improve their knees!
@@TheKneesovertoesguy Thank you. The reason I that I asked was because it could have been a good alternative for people who enjoy working out at home but who have limited space. The other option I though of was walking backwards and forwards using resistance bands attached to something static.
Thank you, by the way, you've helped me with improving knee strength and reducing susceptibility to injuries, as I know you have helped countless others. You really are improving peoples lives.
Hey man, I’m a PE teacher and would love to implement your stuff into my program. What would be your top movements for maybe like a 5 min warmup to begin class?
Great routine you can find here: CSU Fitness Regimen #1

Happy late Birthday! If you are slowly piecing together ATG home gym (I have sled, ATG buddies and tib bar) would you rate mobility box or Nordic bench next on the list to get?
Thank you so much! Love the Mobility Box and so many uses for it🫡🙏
