Tibialis Raise
A step-by-step form guide from the Ægir Iron exercise library: how to do the lift, what to watch for, and the muscles it trains.
- Equipment
- Bodyweight
HOW TO PERFORM
- Stand with the back and hips against a wall and the heels about a foot out in front of you.
- Keep the legs straight and let the weight rest on the heels.
- Pull the toes and the balls of the feet up toward the shins as high as they will go, and pause.
- Lower the toes under control until they almost touch the floor, then lift again.
FORM TIPS
- The further the feet are from the wall, the harder each rep. Walk them out to progress.
- Expect a burn on the front of the shin within a few reps. Use high reps and the full range.
