frequently asked questions

what is "joint Repair?"

Joint repair is about maximizing the remodeling process. This is how the body rebuilds nerve and connective tissue (fascia, tendons, cartilage, etc.) after initial recovery from an injury or surgery.

But joint repair is about even more than that -

This is about becoming a student of movement and your own body.

How does online joint REpaiR work?

If you've got some space, a webcam, and the desire to move better, you're ready to TRANSFORM YOUR JOINTS.

Our online programs provide multiple levels of support through programming and live coaching:

*Functional Movement Testing & Prescription - To restore your movement, first we need to see what you CAN'T do. Live testing helps us uncover the gaps in your movement, and start filling them in with fully-individualized exercise programming.
‍
*Custom Video Library - Your programming is backed up with a comprehensive library of video tutorials that break down each movement in detail, with regressions and progressions to fit virtually any condition.
‍
*Live Group Coaching - Weekly Q&A and guided mobility classes with other program members give you a community of like-minded individuals to help you stay motivated, supported, and growing. Learn TOGETHER to learn FASTER.

*Private Consultation - Need some 1-on-1 guidance? Coach Seanobi is available Monday thru Friday to answer questions, update programs, and troubleshoot issues as they come up. Rehab is hard. Lean on your coach to get you through it!

By the end of your initial program you'll emerge with less pain, more movement, and the skills needed to continue your joint repair journey for the rest of your life.

isn't this just "mobility?"

Sort of.

Mobility is a broad term for training strength and flexibility simultaneously.

Joint repair takes this a step further and teaches you how to train for connective tissue hypertrophy.

‍This is sort of like bodybuilding, but for joints.

So not only will you become stronger and more flexible, but over time your tendons, ligaments, and cartilage will also become thicker and more durable, resulting in LESS PAIN and MORE MOVEMENT.

This isn't a crackpot theory. This is modern exercise science.

will joint repair help me build muscle?

We're concerned with joint gains more than muscle gains at MonkeyDo.

However, if building muscle is a primary training goal, you still need strong joints.

In fact, the bigger your muscles get, the stronger your joints need to be!

That's not our opinion. That's physiology.

This makes joint repair training the perfect foundation to support a muscular hypertrophy-based training program, especially if you're already dealing with injuries.

Getting bigger muscles won't end your joint pain. This will.

can't i just stretch to keep my joints healthy?

Unfortunately, no.

Joints (and the ligaments and tendons attached to them) require regular stress, pressure, and fatigue to get stronger, just like muscles do. Stretching alone, especially static or relaxed stretching, doesn't pump enough blood and synovial fluid directly into these deep joint tissues, which is what prompts them to adapt, repair, and grow.

Stretching must be combined with strength training to achieve such an outcome.

can monkeydo help me lose weight?

Indirectly, yes.

Weight loss is a function of your total day-to-day lifestyle choices.

‍Diet, sleep, stress, and water all play major roles.

‍Exercise alone will not do it.

However, having functional, pain-free joints that make you want to move is the best motivation anyone needs to develop the habits - like daily activity and eating lean foods - that lead to sustainable weight loss over the long term.

i'm over 60 years old. is monkeydo safe for me?

Absolutely!

By using only bodyweight (no weightlifting) and focusing on joint health, MonkeyDo programs are explicitly designed to build a functional, durable body at any age.

Check out our testimonials page, filled with success stories from clients in their 60s, 70s, and beyond!

I already have serious joint issues. is this still safe for me?

This was MADE for you.

MonkeyDo was created by an "older, broken athlete" for the express purpose of getting active people with joint issues back to powerful, pain-free movement again.

Joint damage is far more reversible than we've been led to believe.

Recent breakthroughs in exercise science have upended much of what we know about "worn out joints" targeted for surgery/replacement/etc.

Often times, if certain conditions (osteoarthritis, et. al.) are addressed early enough, simply making the right adjustments to your training can work miracles.

The same is true for those who have already been through surgery/replacement or had physical therapy and still face limitation and pain.
‍
There is FAR MORE strength and ability waiting to be unlocked than you might dare to believe.

And once you understand THE METHOD behind joint repair, belief turns into reality.

This isn't easy. But it can be made simple.
