New Tibialis Training Tool

{SOME} people don't need to worry about putting nice rims on a beat up Honda civic that needs work in other areas though

Good observation.

10 min Belt off to start. 40 min at 10 cals per min. Then walk backwards belt on ten min.

The first are a killer. The young man I am training showed me the belt off. He was great (still is) soccer player and I think does it for his knee health.

all our guys have this (a variation) in their programming

I actually saw older men doing it and laughed but tried it one day and I now do it as well. Funny how we cAn still learn constantly after decades at it.

If you’re looking at the rims you might miss some of the dents though

Work my Tibs off the back of the lying Hamstrings. Every gym has one of those. No before pics, but these definitely have helped my development in this area.

edit - so I don’t know how to post a video. 1 sec is too large? You will have to imagine what this looks like Lol.

I have been training tibs for years and have tried a few options:

Tib Bar (https://www.roguefitness.com/rogue-tf-1) - Best for growth for sure as you can get a good stretch at the end and can really load the weight. I'll even pause in the stretched position for a second on every rep and flex the calf. I have a Rogue but I would get the ATG Equipment one if I had to do it over since I've heard good things and it's cheaper.

Solo Tib (https://thetibbarguy.com/products/the-solo-tib-bar) - To your point @danieltx there is a stability element to it which I like and I can change the shin position and get different angles. I can't hammer the weight like the Tib Bar though. I'm primarily using this now for all Tib training since I have deprioritized growth.

Tib Machine (https://titan.fitness/products/titan-fitness-tibia-dorsi-calf-machine) - Bought this in 2022 and sold it shortly after. The stretch wasn't as good as the tib bar unless you play with the seated position a bit. Definitely didn't feel as good as the top two options.

Yeah I am 6’4, so might not be the same for someone shorter. Some machines are adjustable, but even without I suspect you can make it work. Just have to get the big toe on the pad and You should be able to pull it.
