Titan Fitness Tibia Dorsi Calf Machine Lower Body, Leg Workouts, Targeting, Isolation

Titan is known for making great products and this is no exception. They shipped it within hours it seems of when I ordered it from Amazon. The packaging on the product definitely worked in the shipping process. The box had some serious scuff marks and a couple of corners that looked a little weary. So, I took pictures of how it arrived expecting the worst. They packed it so well that nothing moved and the unit came out of the box ready to use. I had a broken ankle several years ago and it has always bothered me even doing the prescribed PT exercises. I used a band one it and noticed when it worked it helped some but most of the time my ankle would slip to right or left or the band would snap off my foot. and I would actually injury it worse and it take weeks for it to recover from this. This machine puts a nice even amount of stress to work the muscles around the ankle and it helps build it up slowly. I have tried a couple of variations of this type of machine and they were just not that stable and able control. This machine takes all of instability out of the exercises and makes it more controlled and deliberate. So far using this machine has helped with the ankle pain, and makes walking upstairs a little more easier. So, if you have weak ankles/shins or walk on trails that go uphills and down hills and have pain after that this machine will help with that.

This thing is a tank, as most home workout equipment is. Having some other Titan equipment in the past that didn’t work for me due to my height (6’5”) or just wasn’t the best quality I was apprehensive at first to give this a shot, but I’m glad I did. It works well, is well built, and is one of the only pieces of equipment that actually targets this muscle. Glad I bought it and if you’re on the fence based on Titan’s reputation as the budget provider I’d assure you that this is their best product, in my opinion.

The product arrived assembled! You can do unilateral or bilateral strengthening of the tib anterior with this machine. Nicely padded machine that is comfortable on the feet and various foot sizes (my whole family can use it.) The only complaint I have is the bottom is not quite level so there’s a little wobble with quicker movements. Does not bother me enough to remove a star. It helps to use it on rubber flooring. Fits plenty of plates on each side. My 25 pound Olympic plates fit without issue. I definitely feel the burn using this machine. Paid 200 dollars which I thought was fair. I have used it 2 times per week for the past couple months and I find it a valuable strengthening tool for a muscle that is often neglected.

I sprain my ankles pretty easily due to some bad sprains I had as a teenager playing basketball. This little machine really helps get some blood flow to the region after a sprain and helps to strengthen those little muscles that help prevent the next strain, especially if you turn your feet to different angles when you use it.

It's very well built and it came as advertised
