About this pick
Rogan raises MonkeyFeet as one of the exercises he finds transformative for martial artists, and Ben Patrick - who designed it after noticing nobody made equipment for loading the feet - argues a fighter's real bench press is how much weight they can lift with their feet. The auto-captions carry no speaker labels, so the strongest lines cannot be pinned to one of them with certainty.
Why it came up
- Loads the hip flexors directly, which the episode argues drives kicking power
- Ben Patrick designed it himself, so the strongest praise comes from its creator
- Also used for single-leg curls, isolating one side at a time
Hear it for yourself
“one of them is the monkey feet... I recommend that to everyone”
