This has quickly become a game changer for this 51-year old former football player (7 knee surgeries dating back to my first ACL tear back in the ‘80s.). Not only has it strengthened a week area (lower leg below my worse knee), but I feel it is helping bring more blood flow to areas that desperately need. Super satisfied!!

Great customer service, they always got back to me quickly regarding the status of my order. We use the tib bar at our physical therapy office, it’s been great and easy to use for all of our patients. Every patient that has used it so far was very impressed with how it works and the burn they feel during the exercise! I would highly recommend this equipment for athletes, for someone recovering from injuries, or for anyone that just wants to improve their strength for longevity. Definitely well designed and worth it.

I keep this right under my standing desk, and crank out 5+ sets per day as I feel like it. My new gym doesn’t have one of these, and it’s been great for stability in my baby deer ankles. The track is smooth, pad is comfortable, easily portable, and seems very sturdy so far. I can’t find much to complain about, this is a solid piece that does exactly what it should.
Store owner replied: That's fantastic to hear how seamlessly this product has fit into your daily routine! It's also wonderful that you've found it helpful in improving the stability of your ankles.

Buying and shipping process were flawless (I live in France), something I really appreciate. The Tib Machine is compact and very well made.

The Tib Machine is a compact and affordable training device specifically designed to isolate and strengthen the tibialis anterior muscle, located at the front of the lower leg. It allows you to perform tib raises in a stable, controlled environment, providing measurable and progressive loading for this essential exercise.
The primary focus is the tibialis anterior, the muscle responsible for dorsiflexion (pulling the foot upward). Training this muscle enhances lower leg strength and helps prevent shin splints and knee pain.
Both tools are excellent for tibialis raises, but The Tib Machine offers more stability by securing your foot into a fixed platform. This allows for maximum force production and muscle fatigue. The Tib Bar Pro, while effective, requires more balance and coordination, making it slightly less stable but great for engaging supporting muscles.
No, weight plates are not included. However, we offer a high-quality bundle of cast iron weight plates that pair perfectly with The Tib Machine. You can check them out HERE.
The Tib Machine is designed for Olympic/Competition plates with a 2” center hole. It is not compatible with 1” standard plates. If you have any questions about plate compatibility, contact us before purchasing.
The Tib Machine comes mostly assembled with exception of the loading bar. Simply screw onto the base of the machine and start training. Check out our Getting Started Guide HERE for a complete step-by-step setup.
The Tib Machine can be used in two different ways, sitting or standing, allowing you to customize your training based on your goals, equipment setup, and comfort level.
Option 1 - Seated Tib Raises
Sit on a bench or chair with your foot securely placed in The Tib Machine. With your heel anchored and the padded bar resting comfortably across the top of your foot, drive your foot upward to perform a tibialis raise. Focus on squeezing the tibialis anterior at the top, then lower with control.
Option 2 - Standing Tib Raises
You can also use The Tib Machine in a standing position. Simply stand upright with your foot secured in the machine, and lift your toes toward your shin. This position can offer a slightly different training stimulus by engaging additional stabilizers in the foot and ankle.
Both methods are effective, and you can alternate between seated and standing to vary your training and target the muscle from different angles. For video demonstrations and detailed training tips, check out our Training Collective.

Anyone looking to improve lower leg strength, from athletes and fitness enthusiasts to runners, jumpers, and those recovering from lower leg or knee injuries. It’s particularly beneficial for individuals dealing with shin splints, knee pain, or limited ankle stability.
Beginners should start with 5-10 lbs to focus on proper technique and gradually build strength. More advanced users can progressively load up to heavier weights as their tibialis strength improves.
A strong tibialis anterior helps absorb impact forces during walking, running, and jumping. This reduces excessive stress on the knees, ankles, and shins, helping to prevent shin splints, knee pain, and ankle instability.
Yes! The tibialis raise not only strengthens the muscle but also improves ankle dorsiflexion, which is essential for proper squatting mechanics, sprinting, and jumping performance.
