Ever since seeing his videos, I've been obsessed with adding some of his stuff to my routine. The nordic curls and lunges with the knee over the toes are killer.

ETA: sissy squats are rough also

the YT algorithm keeps showing these videos on my YT, but I haven't clicked on one yet

is this more for flexibility, strength, or both?

Is that lie down with legs at his side thing really world class range? Because I'm a chunky 32 year old and I can do that pretty easily.

I paid for the program for about a month. He has a nice progression starting simple and going to challenging resistance-based mobility exercises.

Only thing I don’t like is it seems to require you to focus solely on his program and not continue anything else like 5/3/1 or long distance running. I think this is because he has built the program for people with knee pain. I don’t have knee pain, but I’d like to have his mobility.

I wrote down all of the exercises on a Google Doc and cancelled. I’m tailoring it to what I think I need. All of the videos in the program are found on YouTube BTW.

It’s ok to do knees over toes?

For years we were told not to, what’s changed??

The Nordic curls are no joke. I did some tonight just focusing on the eccentric portion

I’m getting there too. I’ve been having some knee issues and his concepts make a lot of sense. Everything I’ve done so far has felt good

I've had the program for two weeks. You really need some of these random pieces of equipment to progress: tib bar, slant board, 'MonkeyFoot'. will set you back about $300-400.

Also, I find the program lacking overall in terms of hypertrophy training. I do his daily workouts and then add 2-3 exercises to each day. His stuff is mostly for basketball in mind so he's not really trying to pack on LBs of muscle for his athletes.

I signed up for his channel but didn't stick with it. My knees still hurt all the time.
