Knees Over Toes – the ATG tool for resilient knees
The Slant Board is the training wedge for focused knee-over-toe work in the ATG style (Ass To Grass), made famous by Ben Patrick aka the Knees Over Toes Guy. The 22° angle lets your knees travel controlled past the toes – exactly where the VMO (vastus medialis obliquus) is activated most. Whether it's sissy squats, ATG split squats, goblet squats on the board, Jefferson curls or controlled calf stretching – you train in an angle that builds long-term knee resilience instead of avoiding load. The wedge has also earned its place in rehab: for anyone rebuilding after knee surgery or working through patellar tendon issues, focusing on capacity instead of avoidance.
Solid wood, non-slip, three kilos light
The construction is deliberately simple: solid wood, a stable base, a non-slip coating on the standing surface, and a slightly angled rear edge so you don't tip backwards when stepping on. 50 cm of standing width gives you room for wide squat stances. At 3 kg, you take the board to a training camp, to the office, into a hotel room – wherever you need knee work. The non-slip surface holds under load too – with a kettlebell or in a goblet hold. Maintenance: none. Wood, that's it.

Slant Board vs. plates under the heels vs. adjustable stretch board
| Criteria | Slant Board (fixed 22°) | Weight plates as raise | Adjustable stretch board |
|---|---|---|---|
| Angle | 22° fixed, defined | Height variable, no angle | Multiple angles |
| Standing surface | 50 cm wide, fully angled | Small contact points | Variable |
| Stability | Very high (solid wood) | Wobbly | Medium-high |
| ATG suitability | Yes, primary use | Only a workaround | Yes, but more setup |
| Rehab fit | High (defined angle) | Low | High |
| Transport | 3 kg, compact | Bulky | Heavier, foldable |
| Price range | Low–medium | "Already on hand" | Higher |
If you train ATG or knee-over-toe regularly and want a defined angle, the Slant Board is the right pick. Plates under the heels work for a basic squat, but not for clean sissy squats or controlled calf stretching. Adjustable boards are more expensive and over-engineered for most athletes.

Customer reviews
Knee training was a taboo for a long time – never let the knee travel past the toes, keep the shin vertical. The Slant Board shows that the opposite is exactly the key: controlled knee-over-toe, activate the VMO, build patellar tendon resilience. I use the board myself regularly in warm-ups and mobility routines. My knees have never been as resilient as today, and the Slant Board played a big part.
