Main muscles

  • Tibialis Anterior

Also working

  • Peroneus Longus

What it is

Leaning back against a wall with the heels out in front, you lift the toes up toward the shins and lower them. It strengthens the front of the shin, which helps the knees and ankles. Add a tib bar or weight to progress.

Technique tips

  • Lean back against a wall, heels forward
  • Lift the toes as high as you can
  • Pause at the top
  • Lower slowly

How to track your progress

Log reps, and add the extra load if you wear a belt or a vest. Straddly counts your bodyweight in the estimated max, so added weight and extra reps both show up as progress, and new records are flagged during the session.
