NEW GEAR

Check out our Learn section to get full in in-depth, complete guides on all products.

The Tib Bar Guy regularly expands its lineup with innovative, high-impact tools designed to fill gaps in conventional training and support the principles of Knees Over Toes (KOT) training. You can find the full list of the latest equipment in the New Gear section, which features fresh releases and product improvements that bring even more variety, adaptability, and precision to your workouts. Some recent additions include:

• The Nordic Back Extension Machine V2: An improved, highly versatile unit that combines Nordic curls, back extensions, sit-ups, hip thrusts, split squats, and more into one compact station. This is a powerhouse for posterior chain and core development.
• The SledTred: A manual, magnetic resistance based treadmill that is designed to replicate sled pushes and drags that can be done endlessly without needing turf or massive floor space. The adjustable magnetic resistance gets light enough for resisted sprints, but also heavy enough for challenging sled pushing. Whether you're looking to develop serious leg power, improve work capacity, or build bulletproof knees through backward drags, the SledTred makes sled training more accessible than ever. 
• The Slant Stack: An adjustable elevation system designed to be paired with the Slant Board to increase the overall height of your setup without altering the angle of the board. Slant Stack boxes are built to stack securely and safely, allowing you to progress movements like Poliquin Step-ups and KOT split squats through varying ranges of motions and degrees of difficulty. The Slant Stack gives you the tools to scale intensity and range of motion over time on many heel elevated movements. It is a simple, scalable, and highly effective solution for anyone serious about bulletproofing their knees and ankles.
• Nordic Weight Bench V2: The most versatile Nordic solution on the market. It functions as both a standard adjustable weight bench allowing you to perform a variety of presses, sit-ups, rows, etc., and a dedicated Nordic hamstring curl station that is fully scalable to any strength level. Whether you're training for sprint performance, hamstring resilience, or general posterior chain strength, this multi-purpose bench helps you do it all without needing multiple pieces of equipment.

Each new TBG product is designed to complement and enhance your existing fitness routine, whether you're training at home or in a performance setting. As the brand evolves, new tools are carefully engineered to improve joint health, athletic performance, and overall movement quality.

Every piece of equipment from The Tib Bar Guy is specifically built to support the core tenets of Knees Over Toes (KOT) training. This style of training focuses on strengthening the muscles and connective tissues surrounding the knees, ankles, hips, and lower back, with an emphasis on controlled, progressive range of motion, balance, end range strength, and joint resilience.

New products continue to build on this foundation in the following ways:

• Improved progression: Tools like the Slant Stack allow for incremental increases in difficulty, helping you gradually deepen your knee and ankle range motion.
• Expanded joint protection: New items like the Torque Bar extend KOT principles to the upper body, enabling rotational and wrist/elbow specific work that is often overlooked but critical for long term joint health and athletic resilience.
• Posterior chain development: Equipment like the Nordic Back Extension Machine V2 allows for comprehensive posterior chain development, helping to bulletproof the knees, hips, and lower back in the process.
• Unique Innovations: New generation gear like The SledTred brings KOT bulletproof knee principles to anyone, regardless of space or setup, by replicating sled pushes and backward drags in a compact environment. It opens the door for high rep, low impact conditioning work that reinforces knee strength, improves blood flow, and supports recovery without the need for turf or bulky equipment. 

In short, the latest gear expands the KOT toolkit, giving you even more ways to strengthen your joints from every angle and train through full ranges of motion safely, efficiently, and progressively.

To dive deeper into how the newest gear works and why it matters, visit the Learn section of the website. This resource is packed with educational articles that explain the science, strategy, and real-world application of each Tib Bar Guy product. In the Learn section, you will find:

This section is especially helpful if you want more than just “how to” instructions, but rather you want to understand the “why.” It’s written for everyday lifters and coaches alike, so whether you’re training in your garage or programming for a team, the Learn section helps you make smart, informed use of your investment.
