Using the Tib Bar for Leg Day Warm-Up: A Guide to Preventing Knee Pain

How I'm Using My Tib Bar for Warming Up on Leg Day to Prevent Knee Pain 🦵

On leg days, my main compound movement is the Hack Squat to grow my legs. I want my knees, hips, and ankles moving smoothly, with full strength, and no pain.

After a lot of trial and error, here's my 2-3 minute warm-up for conquering leg day:

  • I start off with 15 to 20 Tib Bar Raises for my tight right Tibialis.
  • Then I do about 15 to 20 dynamic hip flexor stretches to warm up the glutes and loosen tight hip flexors.
  • Afterwards, I'll hit 2 to 3 warm sets of Hack Squats and get my top set.

I've found this quick warm-up targets my "weak" areas that always prevent me from squatting better and deeper.

Add these to your next leg day if you want to train pain-free.

If you want to do Tib Raises, you always have alternatives (wall, banded, kettlebell) but we've found the Tib Bar to be the quickest and most efficient tool! Grab yours today at Tib Bar!
