Great video, thanks Victoria! For the Patrick step, where should the weight on the working leg be? Is the heel of the foot bearing the bulk of the weight or is it more evenly distributed. Thank you!
Great video overall. However, the Peterson Step Up requires that the knee be totally extended with the heel UP, before setting the heel down on the concentric range of the contraction. They knee does not extend while the heel drops to set down; they are separate actions. This is that you train the posterior aspect of the knee with load/TUT during the concentric phase. Your calf should be on fire if doing the Peterson correctly. I'm currently rehabbing my own knee after a medial meniscus tear and the Peterson Step Up is the ultimate joint stabilizing/stiffening movement that's helped me progress out of pain. All other heel elevated step ups really have not done much for me. Just thought I would share! Keep up the great work!
Hello Victoria , thanks for this nice video !!! I d like to ask when did you start with Patrick Step Up exercise during your rehabilitation process ???
Since the Poliquin step doesn't require so much of ankle flexibility, isn't it easier to do and should be the first to try out rather than the Patrick?
Does it have some type of rubber on the bottom to stop it from sliding? Also, I see gaps on the sides, do you think a resistance band can go through that gap…
I've noticed people using the slant board the opposite side for some exercises where their toes are sitting on the slope of the board and pointed upward. Do you know if that way is also for increasing knee strength? or other purposes?(calf stretching, etc)
hi Victoria-in the Poliquin Step is there a standard as to the heel placement in relation to the working foot on the slant board? I assume the further you step out with heel the harder it is, but just curious if there is a standard. Thank You
When doing these step up excercises such as the Patrick Step or polliquin step up, am I supposed to feel it more in the knee cap area or in the quad? When doing these, I’ve mostly felt it in the kneecap area which is my problem area since I have missing cartilage where my patella glides and it’s a bit painful. Has gotten better since doing Zero program. Today, I tried to isolate the quad when doing these and felt less pain and more of my quad doing the work. I watched one of Ben’s videos last night and he didn’t really say but mentioned the quad would get a burn and my quad wasn’t burning at all before. Thanks for your help!
Yes you should definitely be feeling it in the quad! But it is common to also feel some pressure by the knee cap. Keep engaging the quad and over time, the quad will get better at taking some of that pressure off the knee joint itself.
@@VictoriaDorsano thank you for replying! Perfect! It’s been feeling a bit better taking pressure off of the knee and targeting the quad. Appreciate your videos!
When I am using the slant board, my foot really shoves my toes into the tip of my shoes. Especially when doing squats. Any helpful tips or tricks? Thanks
I’ve found that the type of shoe I wear when using the slant really makes a difference. I use a shoe with a stiffer sole like my volleyball court shoes and it seems to help prevent that sliding!
Best explanation of KOT step up progression on TH-cam! Thanks! Very helpful.
You’re so welcome! 🙏
Great knee exercises.
Thank you!
This is amazing! Thank you for making such great content! Really appreciate it!!
You’re so welcome! Your products are 🔥🔥🔥
Fantastic explanation!! Tryna use these to help me achieve my pistol squat over time!

You’re welcome!
Great product to implement into my leg day workouts! Thank you for sharing.

Great video. Thank you.
Good and value informations thank you victoria
Glad it was helpful!
Great video. I use my slant board every day... saved my old worn down knees and ankles
I just got it but I don't know which exercises to do. Is there a video with all the exercises that can be done?
@MEF7 yup yup, just search best slant board exercises, bunch of videos with 5 primaries should come up. Then there are a bunch of others as well
Super helpful thanks
Glad it helped
whatever you're doing, keep doing it
coz your legs are looking damn good
Thanks!
superb video thanks
Glad you liked it
Pain and torture! Love it. Thanks for the ideas and reminders 🔥
🙌🏽💪🏼
Absolutely love these.😍
Great video, thanks Victoria!

More evenly distributed from my understanding!
Great video!! thanks

Thanks for the insight!!
How many sets and how often a week would you do them?
Depends on your goals, but for most people, 2x each week doing these for 3-5 sets of 20 is a good start.
Need this slant stack! I've been using steps but I don't have the slant. Thanks 🙌🏾
You’re welcome!
Mobility exercise really doesn't look good
But so important to have
Thanks for sharing from Singapore
This movement is definitely great! What I want to know is if this movement can be done assisted fo higher hight
Absolutely.
Hello Victoria , thanks for this nice video !!! I d like to ask when did you start with Patrick Step Up exercise during your rehabilitation process ???
Great question! I didn’t start until a year after surgery, but would have started sooner around 5-6 months post-op if I had known about it.
What kind of surgery did u have.
Great explanation!!! When would I incorporate these exercises in acl rehab post op ? Phase 2 or 3 ?
It all depends on your progress in rehab. I’d check in with your PT on that one 🙌🏽
.Can you please mention the muscles involved in these exercises ?
Since the Poliquin step doesn't require so much of ankle flexibility, isn't it easier to do and should be the first to try out rather than the Patrick?
She says it’s less about ankle and more about focusing on knee strength
Curious…what’s the focus on knee traction?
Awesome video, but of you dont have the slant stack or whats its called, could you use something else?
You can stack some plate weights, and put a dumbbell behind your heel as well!
Does it have some type of rubber on the bottom to stop it from sliding? Also, I see gaps on the sides, do you think a resistance band can go through that gap…
No rubber on the bottom but it does seem to grip the floor well. I’m pretty sure a band could fit through there too!
Oh man I want that stack so bad, went to use your code but shipping to Australia was $300! Maybe next time haha
Oh snap!! That's so expensive for shipping! Sorry about that!
Great
Where to buy those equipments?

It can be great for calf stretching and calf raises that direction!
@@VictoriaDorsano That's what I thought, thanks for clearing that up!
hi Victoria-in the Poliquin Step is there a standard as to the heel placement in relation to the working foot on the slant board? I assume the further you step out with heel the harder it is, but just curious if there is a standard. Thank You
No standard really. The most important thing is keeping the hips in line with the working foot and preventing them from shooting back
Hi should the mouvement be pain free ?
You may feel some discomfort, but shouldn’t be sharp pain.
