Why are Tibialis raises so good?

[@KenanTurkiye]

I've been training my tibialis muscles for the past 3 years too, one of the best muscle training exercises I have learnt. Good videos as always.

[@mannyblackstar]

Bigger calves?

[@KenanTurkiye]

@@mannyblackstar Tibialis traiing doesn't directly grow ones calves, before I go on to calves let me point out something about the tibialis. If you have a gym with a tibialis training apparatus, great, if not, and there are kettlebells, just sit on a high bench like the quad extension machine seat, extend your legs, hav one foot supported over the other, hook your upper foot inside the handle of the kettlebell and curl away. Otherwise, you can just loop a resistance band to a thing, and sit across it and curl away. I've done both and both work ok, you just got to adjust the angle of force and it's perpendicular angle to where abouts the tibialias length you want it 'hitting'. My tibiais are quarter the size of bowling pins, and proportional to the calves I got. Re: calves, training the gastrocs along with the soleus is recommended, ana usually we are inside calve dominant, so training the outside of the calves seems to yield better results, and to do that, just point your toes inwards facing each other while doing the gastroc or soleus raises. Best wishes.

I just started working them directly a few months ago (20 years too late). Going to add the deep squats now too. Great info. Thanks

[@FlyAmanita1]

Excellent video. I've overlooked tib training my whole life... and it's something that can be done anywhere/ anytime!

[@joemarchant1992]

Really good content! I can see your channel doing really well. Keep it up mate

[@User_ML907]

I agree it is helpful. I discovered it thanks the knee over toes guy some years ago. He strongly recommends it for rehab and strengthening knees.

[@InfamousAustinT0]

Thanks for the video mate

[@19grand]

Good video. Thank you comrade Lenin. :)

[@kaifscarbrow]

Severe hemophiliac. Chronic bleeds in the knee for the last 2 decades. Knee is so bad, I wince if someone so much as touches it. Need factors every week else it's bleeding. Been doing tib raises and my knee feels so much better. Even skipped factor last week. You don't have any idea how liberating that is.

[@pedrohenrique-bx4xw]

Thank you, doc.

[@richardfrancisburton6833]

Shin splints gone doing this 😊

[@Q8Patriot]

Thanks alot for the explanation 😅😅

[@tictactoe101]

Thank you for so helpful information 👍. Start working jt now

[@XXXXBossXXXX]

ahhh so tibs decelerate the movement of the foot. Calves accelerate.. A balance between push n pull in a way.

[@MathewHawkes]

And deceleration of knee over foot

[@XXXXBossXXXX]

@@MathewHawkes ahhhh, which in a way helps with squatting!

[@MathewHawkes]

Yes and running, jumping etc

[@bearthefunnyguy]

I have giantic calves and my shins get tired when i drive for a long time. I guess this exercise should help. Thanks

[@Lunarangst]

Amazing video. I’m desperate to get back to lifting. I am almost 6 weeks into a fibula break recovery. I think I can try these soon and incorporate them regularly from them on Have you any thoughts on that ?

[@MathewHawkes]

Definitely a good idea

[@alexcooldad30]

great video. can we train these everyday?

[@MathewHawkes]

Roughly 3 to 4 times per week is plenty

[@Kshep84]

My tibialis is so weak that I can't even execute one of these.... been trying to do these for about a year... zero progress ...

[@yomomshouse100]

Probably get a workout band to support you pulling the foot up. Only a bit tho gotta keep it a challenge.

[@amapolo7211]

I don't see the role of the tibialis on deceleration. I feel deceleration is provided by the eccentric action of the ankle extensors (i.e. plantarflexors, calves), while their concentric action provides acceleration. And regarding deep squats, the poor dorsiflexion of the ankle is more probably caused by thight shortened extensors (plantarflexors, calves) because when squatting you are not actively stretching the calves by firing the tibialis antagonist, but doing a bodyweigh pasive stretch of the calves, the tibialis contracting with no effort.

[@joshualewno1440]

I guess you're right and every expert that has backed up what is being said in the video are wrong.

[@amapolo7211]

@@joshualewno1440 agreed

[@neoberi2611]

I agree. It's like any other antagonist muscle relationship for example biceps and triceps. If you curl a dumbbell you flex your bicep muscle. Then you lower the dumbell. To decelerate the lowering of the dumbell, the tricep is not involved. So with that logic, the tibialis does not decelerate the eccentric movement of the calf.

[@MathewHawkes]

It decelerates the foot (plantarflexion at ankle) to the floor which lowers ground reaction forces, which transfer up through the knee etc. and it helps to slow momentum of the knee anteriorly as a result too.

[@HypotheticalX]

It does decelerate the foot during the initial plantarflexion that occurs immediately following heel strike, and to clear the foot during toe-off.

[@TheTeamdom]

My shin muscles (I assume tibialis) become easily sore when I'm walking longer distances. Then I'll self massage or stretch them. Would it be a good idea for me to strengthen them as well? Thanks!

[@MathewHawkes]

Yes

[@rastawayworkout5187]

Too much unnecessary talking...learn to get to the point in a faster and simpler way than using your big words. Probably why such low views

[@susanna8704]

Wow..entitled much? Don’t watch if you don’t want to.

[@samirstanton86]

You too stupid to understand

[@HypotheticalX]

He didn’t say a single unnecessary word in this video. Very informative and resourceful discussion. If you find it unnecessary then don’t watch. I gonna compensate it by subscribing!

[@hainleysimpson1507]

So what you're saying is most people need everything dumbed down to them. And ard so stupid they can't focus for more than a minute?
