Ben Patrick is also known as the "knees over toes guy".
He used to have a lot of knee problems (meniscus, knee prosthesis, pain) and he fixed them by exercising with the knees in front of his toes.
The main exercise is pulling the SLED:

Yes, he has a program he sells, but just watching his content on Social Media is going to help you.
This video shows an exercise and, at the end, you can see him doing an interesting basketball dunk:

If interested, please check out his Social Media channels that speak more than words.
He also went to the Joe Rogan podcast.
NOTE: he is not saying that tomorrow you should go to the gym and squat 500 pounds with your knees in front of the toes.
Been applying some of the practices I've learned from Ben and I've seen solid gains in overall strength, and most importantly knee strength.
Can confirm - sled pulling is a game changer. I also practice squats and lunges on a slant-board, which has helped me overcome my ankle mobility shortcomings and still preserve depth of motion with form.
Kneesovertoesguy is a great follow on IG - I've recommended his content to everyone I know and vouch for your recommendation on this forum as well. If you want stronger knees - browse through some of Ben's content and try out some of the exercises. No need to buy an expensive program, simply understanding the gist of the methods he proposes should get you stronger knees.
