the Joe Rogan experience hip flexors that's that's a muscle that so few people
work out and there's this guy that I follow on Instagram that's become very
popular Jamie actually turned me on to him that knees over toes guy
yeah he was training with Mark Bell but I started implementing a lot of what he
does in my training routine and I actually got one of those monkey feet
things if you don't know what that is it's a thing you strap onto your shoe
and you can attach a dumbbell to it so you lift so like in you know for like
hip flexors to get them strong it's kind of hard to do but if you want to be a
strong runner or if you want to throw hard knees like that's really where the
muscle comes from if you think about like throwing a hard knee a lot of that is
it
and it also with kicks everything about roundhouse kicks like I you know been
kicking since I was a little kid so I've got pretty decent hip flexor muscles
but I don't do an exercise to work them other than this stuff like and I
started
and maybe lunges I guess work them a little bit but using this monkey foot
thing you you can actually like lift weights with your hip flexors as you're
lifting your knee up and that's all that muscle yeah see if you find like a
video
of him doing it but this guy has some really interesting perspective a really
interesting perspective on strengthening all the muscles around your knee and
he
calls it knee over toes guy because traditionally if you thought if you talk
to someone they say hey don't ever have your knee over your toes because it
puts a
lot of pressure on your knee it's bad for your knee and his idea is no build up
to
where you can have your knee over your toes easily and if you look at his
Instagram he does a lot of like crazy shit like where he jumps and lands with
knees over toes and goes all the way down to the ground and they could spring
back up like this shit and this is a guy that's had like multiple leg
surgeries and so look how he lands and he does a lot his Instagram it's knees
over toes guy is his Instagram but he's definitely got that monkey foot thing
in
there somewhere Jamie see if I found he's doing the tip thing which let's go
just scroll up I'm sorry that's good too but scroll up to that one where he's
leaning back right there yeah watch this this is a crazy strength in his legs
look
he goes all the way back which is hard to do already and then pops all the way
forward yeah that's fucking hard to do man yeah and that is all those muscles
that we're talking about here that's like hamstrings though a lot of that is
hamstrings too I think because yeah because we'll do yeah we'll do a similar
thing I obviously can't do it as good as that guy but yeah hamstrings glutes
bro
the glutes are super important like and you see that pose that he's got in the
middle there Jamie with that yeah that one with the arrow so that's showing
like
the opt what happened there that's showing the optimal position to strengthen
like to have that sort of what do they call a split squat where you have that
crazy angle where your knee is hanging way over your toes and obviously you
build up to
it slowly like he's got Miriam Nakamoto do you know who she is yeah
multiple time world kickboxing champion world Muay Thai champion my friend Miriam
shout out to Miriam she's a beast and she has a pretty significant knee injury
that
she's trying to recover from and she got a bunch of stem cells and shit shot in
there but she's now doing a lot of this guy's program to strengthen all the
muscles around it but see how he's into doing a lot of stuff that puts you in
that
position and I mean the dude can fucking do some crazy shit athletically but he
he
also uses all these examples of different athletes that have incredible
explosive power with their legs and they use these these kind of exercises and
they
they're strong in these positions so he shows this split squat which is really
hard
to do man it's really hard to get down like that with that knee hanging way out
over your
toes and get all the way down so your back knee touches the ground and then
pull
yourself back up but it's true he calls it dense strength and it's just you're
strengthening all your tendons and all the muscles that stabilize the knee and
put
the knee in a good position and for kicking things man and and in for grappling
I
think I think a lot of guys could benefit from it look how flexible the fucking
dude
is look at that picture right there and like he does a lot of stuff on slant
boards if you go to
that one that the video that we're just on Jamie of him doing a full split yeah
that one like so he
does a lot of stuff on slant boards where so he'll have like like it's like a
slant board which is good
for stretching your calves out and I started doing this because of him too and
drop
all the way down with a barbell and go all the way down to the floor and it's
just tremendous hamstring stretch but also strengthening and you see the kind
of
flexibility that this guy has because of it I mean he can go all if you can go
scoot that thing all the way up the dude can go all the way down to a full
split and
look at that he's doing a zurcher squat grip like where you put it in the crux
of
your elbow with weights I don't know why he's showing so I'm getting slammed
into a triangle
I guess I don't know I'd have to listen to him but a lot of great exercises yes
he
could find that monkey foot thing he's got that in there somewhere I thought I've
definitely seen on his page but the video might not be up or it's been
somewhere
else he's just the only thing I could find was that tibia thing which is a very
close thing too but yeah it's a different that's a different thing but
that's pretty dope too that's a bar where you put your feet into it and you
put plates on the end of it and it works those muscles on the tibia and you
know
you just flex the foot up and down so it's like there's all these different
ways
you can strengthen these muscle groups that you don't fit like there's no
direct way to strengthen them like individually that you think of and you
think of doing squats you know you're strengthening them sort of but you know
they're just kind of coming along for the ride getting stronger whereas this is
Iceland that's it that's the monkey feet thing dang those are crazy it's dope
dude
it's really dope I love it because what I'll do is I'll like hold on to like a
chin-up bar like this and then I'll just do these fucking leg lifts with my and
you
could do leg curls with it you can do leg lifts but I feel like for a guy like
you
who already has a fucking nasty flying knee that would make your knee even scarier
