He's not exagerating at all! I was having patella tendon pain on both knees, nothing excruciating but definitely annoying and noticeable. I did what he did in this video here with these bands, and I am not joking when I say it made the tightness in my patella tendons COMPLETELY disappear immediately and I was able to have a little squat session on the VMO board completely pain free for the first time in 6 months. I am still in disbelief at how well it worked and that the effects were so immediate. Now this is just my experience but I can say the results blew my expectations out of the water (I was a bit skeptical). I'm so grateful I found this and thank you guys for sharing this incredible info!
exactly bro. but u gotta know that you have to do this every other day for a couple of weeks and combine with a good mobility routine. i even do it in sets of 2 or 3.
@@MrBarosxp nice bro!! do you think its ok to do this everyday? and which ones did you order online?
What are these bands called
@@MrBarosxp yup you right about that! My knees have gone from feeling like shitty old man knees to 16 year old knees my mind is freakin blown. I'll have to try out sets of 2-3!
I’m not buying this. This is the only thing you did? Because I’ve done this and it didn’t make a difference.
literally just tried this with some bands in my house and I immediately feel a difference in my "bad" knee. wow
Awesome

@@Mr1nf1n1ty maybe you put the link to this product in the description, and just didn’t see it. Pls repost the link. Thanx!
It’s crazy how fast this works. Just like Ben says, it’s IMMEDIATE relief when you take the bands off.
Tried this tdy after my hoop session....worked so well I had to come back to leave a comment (I give this a 8/10 would suggest doing it jus feels uncomfortable at first and pulls leg hairs)
Tried it with bands because I didn’t see a link for the longer ones, but my knees felt immediately different after 20 on the slant board. Amazing.
Played 5 full court ball games today, went home and did these. Knees feels great and I felt the blood coming in after the squats
I had a tibio-fibula dislocation two days ago. Knee completely demobilised and was swollen. Bought some floss bands and did some slow squats on a slant board (3x10) and the swelling and pain has decreased drastically! Crazy. Will keep using them this week.
Nobody gonna talk about 1:26😂😂😂
That happens. I've done squats before, and I shit my pants. So that's nothing.
Man bought some and it worked so well! Instantly felt better, insane, thank you!
1:27 someone farted ! Lol
Totally thought that was me. LOL.
@@lylachristopherson865 hahnhahahahha
You can use hand wraps to do this too
Got my floss bands yesterday dude Ben my knee feels good 🤗
Finally some says the name of the damn thing 👍 thx
#1 thing that worked for me. Seriously floss your knee.. try it. Nothing has had a bigger impact in taking away knee pain.
Love Ben Patrick. Flossing bands changed my life! Thanks Mr 1!
Awesome! Where did you order them from? Do share .. please?
@@pleake13 I got the WODfitters band during a 50% off sale. Seems they have sales like that pretty regularly. (Might have to sign up to an email list for a bit to get it.) Mr. 1nfinity might have flossing bands for sale too, if i remember correctly.
All you’re videos are golden!! Joining soon! 1:26 Fart btw
😅
He did didnt he!😂
Thanks man.
xD xD xD
That was literally his heel sliding on the ground. A common phenomenon on a floor like this.
Thank you for all your amazing information. The world needs it! I need it!
you are amazing man
Ben is the real deal.
I want an explanation of why there is such string information for this full motion to protect knee and trainers like pjf performance stating strong belief that over mobile athletes have more knee injuries and building stiffness will reduce.
These aren’t word for word examples but guiding the direction of the question.
I’d love to hear your answer, but even more I’d love to see you two on a podcast together so we as viewers can really learn
it's not about flexibility vs stiffness, it's mostly about strength. That is, of the muscles through full range of motion, and of tendons & ligaments.
I love this channel!!!
Thanks guys!
Any articles on knee/ankle flossing scientific benefits ?
What’s the difference between doing this and doing regular body weight squats? I have pretty bad patellar tendinitis, do the bands help focus on the tendons more?
Yes it keeps the tendons tight and promote more blood flow to the tendons to promote healing
You look like thekneesovertoesguy
Lol I thought he was
Lol he is the Kneesovertoesguy
Knees over toes guy is known for the "atg split squat". Thats him 😂
And Ben Greenfield lol
You sound like Kneesovertoesguy
how do i do this for a bad shoulder?
Thanks for sharing.
...i think a Bicycle inner tube cut in bands can do the trick?
avoid ones with powder/liquid in the tube obviously
I flossed my elbows which worked but this explains knees. Thanks,
How often should you do this? Also should I Be doing this even if I’m not yet having knee pain but want to prevent it?
I want to know this too! :)
@@Tom-lx6bf I heard Ben talking about this on a podcast after my comment. He only advices this for extreme knee pain to be able to have momentary relief to play your sport. Ben doesn’t do anything to get rid of pain ie foam rolling etc so I wonder if he would even still recommend doing this for everyday situations.
do we need both of them ? or just one if we only have knee pain in one area
I guess it would be smart to do it on both knees
If you only have pain in one area you could just do it on that area to rehab, but you could also do it on both areas to help with recovery and prevent injury.
its good to do it above and below the knee to tie down the petellar tendon as well as the hipflexor that crosses the knee from above, chances are theyre both tight and inflamed even though you likely only get pain below the knee where the tendon is
WHAT NOW YOU TELL ME THERE'S SOMETHING CALLED FLOSSING YOUR KNEES TOO?
Oh I did know I wasn't trying this whole time that helps a lot!
Looks like a form of BFR/occlusion? I typically do wrap my knees on leg day but not with rubber bands like those. Looks interesting.
I need to try this I'm starting to get some knee pain
Wish I could do the same with my low back and hip.
Jefferson curls
well after watching a ton of ATG stuff i bet Ben would want you to elongate and strenghten that region along with supporting muscles QL/ABs and Glutes, perhaps gentle full range of motion back hyper extensions (machine no moving parts), Knee Raises, and ATG split squat movements are for you
Do you do 20 reps every day or 2-4 times per week?
Do you wrap just one knee and do 20 reps then wrap the other knee and do 20 reps so 40 reps total? Or wrap both knees at same time and do only 20 reps?
Going to be ordering your tib bar and probably your backward walking treadmill.
Thanks
I think Ben may have farted @ 1.27 of the video 😂
yummy
where can i buy these can you find these in physical stores and do i have to get these kind or can i also buy knee brace and have similar effect
Cool! I got rid of pubic bone pain by flossing my crotch.
How hard should the band be? I have found bands ranging from light resistance to very high, would a hard band not suit this application since it would restrict blood flow too much?
What specific routine do you do to recover? Is it different than the 20 mentioned for warm up? Or is it the same thing
great video ben. how often should we use this??
Hey, Ben. Do we have to do them one knee at a time, or can we get two pairs and do both knees at once?
One at a time means more reps.
@@darkbread6401 what if both your knees 🤕 hurt?
what can you do with inflammation of the quadricep tendon? complete rest or some of your exercises?
That’s funny, I’ve never iced in my whole life. I didn’t know why I just figured it wasn’t right
Icing works against your tendons.. tendons are stiff and aren't easily flexible. If you have bad knees it's better to heat them up and deep tissue massage around the knees to break up the scar tissue. Same if you get golfer or tennis elbow. Ice is only needed of you have swelling like when you pull a hamstring and it swells up. So you ice it to bring down the swelling due to lack of blood flow.
And or do what ever he did with those bands .
@@davidsenay2811 what does it mean if I’m sore after I give it a deep tissue massage? Could it be that I broke up a lot of the scar tissue or does that mean I kind of aggregated the tendon?(since I have heard that tendons can get tight if you massage them)?
@@davidsenay2811 or could it be because I didn’t hear them up before I did the massage?
@@treefitty937 which tendon are you talking about exactly on your knee or elbow? You want to massage the muscle bellies around surround the tendon.. that way the muscle loosens up and pulls less on the tendon. Also heating and cold treatment isn't bad as long as when your icing a tendon you don't play on utilizing it until it heats back up. (Cold/movement/workload) is the worst for a injured tendon. Also to fix a tendon you have to strengthen what ever muscle surround it for golfer/tennis elbow would be getting your flexors/extensor stronger in the forearm. Knee problems I'm guessing would be to strengthen quads and tibial ankle mobility anything that can help take away impact from the knees.
you da man.
would these be good for track sprinters as well?
BUT MY F**KING LEG HAIR!!!!! OWW!!!!
Can someone explain how this works and when you should do it?
Listen to the video, also have others talking about flossing
OK I did, how does rapping your knees improve the tendon elasticity, does it stiffen and shorten its ROM? Please explain
Can this be used on shoulders as well? And if so can I buy on the website?
Can u do a video on knee swelling management?
Does this also help when you recovering from a mcl ?
What is the name of those straps bands you used??
Floss bands - they’ll be all over amazon
10 pounds or 15 dollars for both
Website doesn't let you buy. I think you have to call it in...
Should I do this before or after a gym workout for best results ?
Before
*Kneesovertoes guy enters the chat
This guy just stole his video
Too bad I’m allergic to latex, would really get a lot of benefit out of these
Wear over your jogging trousers
Anyone else notice the fart at 1:26? Lol
Can this or is this recommended or useful for post acl reconstruction surgery rehab? I am 7 months post op and still suffer from a lot of loss of mobility and stiffness.
awesome nocebo sir
Any estimate on when they'll be restocked?
use a band of a bicycle
We can order these from u mr infinity. ? Where is the link too order ?
Damn icing is bad? funny how its pretty much standard practice in the nba
Yeah. I mean, they’re elite athletes with professional trainers and physiologist, like what do they know.
@@hunchofmateus2422 I mean to be fair there really aren’t a lot of people that know these aspects of knee protection and how they work like this guy does. If everyone was really doing everything they could to optimally train their knees we wouldn’t be seeing torn mcl’s, acl’s and a bunch of other shit in the NBA left and right
@@BT405 bro their whole careers depend on their knees. I’m sure they got that well covered waaaay better than a guy that just likes to jump a bit high. It’s like pretending to have a better investment criteria than Warren Buffet.
@@hunchofmateus2422 no. Elite athletes perform in Spite of circumstance,not because of it. He was not an elite athlete, in fact he was the total opposite. Which its why it’s just as valid, if not more. His science, which is heavily cross-referenced and hand-tested, performs miracles. He’s a revolutionary. Just like Sevan Bomar, and DoelowDaPilotman.
@@hunchofmateus2422 yeah but this guys SPECIALTY is pretty much staying injury free. He’s spent ages researching this stuff, and more importantly, he’s been through knee pain.
What material are these made from. I have allergies.
I want some of these. Can I ask why do you not like foam rollers??? I hate them.
do those squats work without the bands? i'm confused as to what exactly the bands help with
Is there a comparable exercise for the ankle, specifically targeting the Achilles tendon?
Active Release Technique is also legit for knee pain
how would you do this for a lateral meniscus tear? same protocol?
Do you advise using the voodoo bands on ankles to increase ankle mobility too?
He had another video using floss on his ankles for strengthening and mobility.
When are these going to be in stock?
Did you fart when squatting at 1:25
You can bet he did!
It looks like his sock made that sound when he twisted his foot
Band pressure squeezed it out of his knee
is that really what you take out from this video?
@@trikmandularlgaming2026 of course not mr serious. It’s simply a funny observation. You forgot your sense of humor when you left the house this morning
where do you buy it
Where can we find these?
Amazon G. Compression bands
Will it help young kids/teenagers with Osgood-Schlatter Disease?
Where is the link to buy the floss bands??
I think I over did it and strained my calf muscle. What’s should I do? Just RICE and wait it out until there’s no pain.
So I should just do it before or after working out? I was doing it like 6 times a day because it felt so good on my bad knee
Rice and strengthen claves bro
RICE is being disproven and unadvised, take it easy until it feels better and then work on strengthening the muscle and improving ankle mobility, he has lots of videos on it as do others
he specifically talks about not doing ice though, it can relieve immediate pain if its a serious injury but doesnt help healing
how tight do you wrap the band around your legs?
As tight as you can tighter the better
Ive seen physiotherapists recommended 50% tension.
where can I get those straps from
Mrinfinity.com
Don’t click link it brings you to something else. Just type it in and use promo code bonus50 for a discount
He only did it on one knee but should I do it for both?
I’m just gonna buy one set and do a second set of 20 squats on the opposite knee after
Can I replicate this with tight knee sleeves?
Do we apply it by working upwards or downwards?
does anyone have a link to where i can buy such bands?
Do they make you fart? 😂
Can you post the link to these bands?
Any other way to replicate the bands at home?
Does this not feel like it’s so much pressure on the back of the knee skin? Feels like I’m going to damage something inside the back of my knee when I do this
I am experiencing the same thing, were you able to figure it out?
@@MISSYMINX261 I stopped this method 100% and went to Jake tuura “jkp” protocol. Fixed me right up
20$ for a rubber band?
Does it help with Osteoarthritis 🙏🏽 ?!
I have old Cho Pat straps. Will that work?
Is there anything you can do like this for shoulder issues using these bands?
yea go look at donny thompsons page he uses floss bands for shouoder mobility
Can this help treat knee bursitis?
I’ve been dealing with a lot of neck pain recently, would this help if applied to the proper area?
I don’t think it would be safe to use flossing for the neck. Shoulders, sure. Maybe the problem lies further down and shoulder flossing would help.
Link to this product?
Where is the link to the bands
This is sort of like how accupuncture will release chi that's blocked. The circulation just HAMMERS after release. Wild shit man
Where do one buy this straps at amazon?
Does Ben talk about this on his channel?
Do you sell these bands still?
How do you order?
Can that work on elbows/ wrist is too!?!?
Yes it can!
