the Joe Rogan experience your exercises of 100% made my knee stronger 100% I
appreciate that it's really amazing so with those kicks and a lot of people out
there can relate you do that because it's something you want to do it's not
like that's the healthiest thing for your knee to go with this I mean the
amount of torque is probably like in the thousands of pounds every time you
throw
out a kick if you add all up all you know all that force and it's the same
with jumping playing basketball is not good for your knees right but I want to
do it right so that's where the sled comes in because every step that you're
going backward you're strengthening your knee but there's a fundamental
difference between the sled and any other exercise that I do the difference is
that
only you move the sled so the sled never moves you when you do squats or
anything
like that you're taking some degree of risk your the weight is gonna move you
down mm-hmm and then you're gonna move it back so I last time I was in LA I'm
on
the roof of my apartment and I have one of those internal resistance sleds up
there
and my neighbors 82 and he wants to join me for a workout he doesn't know who I
am
he's just I can instantly put him on a sled and this is an internal resistance
one
that you can push and you can go backwards I've seen that one yeah if you pull
up my
Instagram I put so that anyone listening can get the world's fastest education
meaning
I'm just I made for the podcast I spent the last week preparing six posts in
order so let's
go to that one on the top left the current human exercise fundamental is
walking forward with a
machine doing the work for you a treadmill yeah okay it should be the human
doing the work even
pushing a sled would be so much better you can put an older person on pushing a
sled only they move
the sled so you don't have the the you know with a squat or something like that
there's a lot more
chance of uh of injury right but we we want those effects of a squat but for
example I go six days a
week I sled and one day a week I squat you see the difference there is that
what you do six days I
every workout I sled first I don't it doesn't matter if it's upper body I sled
first so is that how you
warm up or is that that's how I warm up but it also it gets my cardio in it
gets if you go right
to the second post someone can see exactly the benefits I'm talking about you
actually get a foot
workout when you push a sled for sure okay and so I think most of us humans we're
missing training our
feet yeah I agree with that right so right off the bat and you were mentioning
louis simmons and the
reverse hyper and how it's like how you can rebuild it back when you push a
sled you get a very similar
effect because you're not loading your spine right so pushing a sled and then
going backward at least
as much so I do more backward than I do forward but I sled every day so every
time I work out the
first thing I do is I sled no kidding because I've only been doing it once a
week and I've been thinking
you know like I don't want to overdo this and that's what's interesting is that
it's a lot easier
to overdo exercises and it's the crazy impressive exercises I can do that get
views on posts the sled
is not interesting right but the sled is what I've definitely done more than
any human being over the
last 10 years so the best thing I can do is just relate the exact you know path
I took so how does one
what do you mean they're overdoing the sled so first off if the sled had a
thousand pounds on it it just
wouldn't move right so you already have that difference it's much harder to get
into a tricky situation on the sled and we really
haven't seen such a thing like people have asked this a lot how do I like what's
too much there's actually in the last five years there's one dude who has
sledded more than me and I've made it my training partner now like I'm like
dude like your mission in life is to push me push me every day of my life he
every day as well go look at the second slide on that my training partner is 43
and he has reversed his body he can dunk a basketball he's the guy in all my
posts so he's 43 years old he's the youngest looking 43 year old I've ever seen
he's he can now dunk a basketball he's completely shredded he's in the
last five years look at that that's crazy he's out sledded me in the last five
years one-handed hang while he's extending his legs contracting his abs and
holding a 45 pound plate he rarely does that that's that's fucking wild
that's wild for what does this guy do he's a trainer
pfft man yeah fucking sign me up yeah he he he wrote the um he wrote the gym
book with me it's a it's
intended to be like our gentlest starting tips for longevity
