Welcome Το Knee Hab
Men's Health US|July - August 2022
Ben Patrick, better known as Knees Over Toes Guy, has a controversial plan to help you beat chronic knee pain-and transform your athleticism in the process.
Welcome Το Knee Hab

BAD KNEES. The words conjure images of popping joints, morning runs turning into jogs and walks, and pizza-box-height vertical leaps. You probably know a few people who have bad knees-an estimated 65 million Americans fight chronic knee pain every year. You might even have a pair of less than stellar knees yourself.

Ben Patrick, 30, knows bad knees well. Patrick is Knees Over Toes Guy, a social-media sensation/knee-rehab guru whose training methods promise to end knee pain and juice athletic ability. Patrick himself suffered from bad knees, and he says he still remembers being called the old man of his high school hoops team, back when he had knees so bad he could barely jump two feet high. You'd never know that from checking his Instagram (@kneesovertoesguy) now, though. His 1.4 million followers watch him drag sleds, train with elite CrossFitters and weightlifters, and throw down dunks.
