Now that you have your Tib Machine assembled, let’s go over how to use it effectively. This guide will cover the type of weights you need, best practices, and the two primary variations of use.
Choosing the Right Weights
The Tib Machine is designed to accept two-inch Olympic-sized weight plates. It performs best with metal weights up to 10 pounds. If you don’t already have these, we offer a selection in our store—feel free to check them out!
Pro Tip for Stability
To enhance stability during use, some users prefer to secure the weight plates with a weight clamp. This prevents unnecessary shifting and allows for a smoother experience. If you find that the plates move too much during use, adding a clamp can be a simple yet effective solution.
Variations of Use
There are two primary ways to use your Tib Machine:
Seated Variation
1. Sit on a bench or chair with your feet flat on the ground.
2. Secure the TIB machine to your foot and perform controlled movements.
3. This method is great for focusing on isolated strength training.
Standing Variation
1. Stand upright with a stable posture.
2. Engage your core for balance as you work through the movement.
3. This variation adds a stability challenge and engages additional muscles.
