Who Ben works with
ATG serves athletes and adults with knee pain, including people over 40. Members range from those who want to dunk to those who want to play with their grandkids. Programs start at a level that fits each person, and exercises are adjusted to stay pain-free.
How Ben works
Members use an app with training programs, an exercise library and progress tracking. They record and send form videos, and a coach replies within 24 hours. Training never pushes through pain, and exercises are scaled back to a comfortable level. Programs build on basics with step-by-step levels. An assessment matches each person to a program, including the male and female ATG Standards.
