Reviews

The Nordic bench was so good I decided to buy the tib tool, and the forearm trainer. I was not disappointed! Well built stuff.

Before I purchased the bench I read every review and also checked similar products to find out if the unit tips when you do a full range Nordic curl. None of the reviews answered my question, and it wasn't in the description, so I'm writing this review to help others in case they were wondering the same thing,

The unit itself is amazing, very solid and gives you the trust you need to do Nordics without hesitation. I'm using it without counter weight and it's still not tipping or moving, and I'm over 90kg using it on tiles. The feet are perfect, engineered so thoughtfully.

My only issue is that 2 of the bolts are slightly too short, and they just happen to be the bolts securing the foot pads. I wish this were different as it causes the bolts to thread only half way through the nuts. If the service department is reading this, I would love for you to send me longer bolts to replace these ones. Then it'll be a 10 out of 10. Due to the bolt issue, and another minor issue which causes some bolts to break down into small metal shards, I'm giving it a 9 out of 10.

The TibTool Nordic Back Extension machine is solid and I cannot find any faults with it. I did my research on this purchase and looked at many back extension machines and then also started to consider the many available options for the nordic plus back extension machines. I was not 100% sure about the quality of the TibTool one because there are no third party youtube reviews for this. I'd never tried nordic curls and was initially looking for a back extension machine. I chose the TibTool nordic back extension machine design because it has both top and bottom rollers and a plate for feet. I wasnt sure if I need the nordic curl feature or if i'd use it. I also wasn't sure about the build quality but after receiving the delivery within just 2 or 3 days of placing the order I can say that my initial impression was that it was well packaged and materials seemed to be of high standard. After 1 month of use I can say that machine is solid and well designed. The foam padding for the knee and foam rollers is plenty thick and confortable and will likely last for some time. I am glad I got this machine because it gives the 3 exercises and I have it set so that i can do nordic curls, back extensions and abdominal workout without having to adjust the machine for each exercise. It really is a simple machine to use and I could not be happier.

Really happy I made the choice to make this purchase, I have been battling my L5/S1 Back/Nerve issue for the past 18 Months.
In this time I have had multiple treatments, therapies and tried a lot of different exercises. This machine has helped me immensely over the past 6 Weeks doing my single and double leg static holds, have noticed some real improvements, especially over the past 2 weeks.
Strong and well built, very high quality!
Highly recommend!

Couldn’t be happier with my nordic back extension. Easy to set up and use, and offers all the configurations I need to train my posterior chain. Not to mention it barely takes up space in the home gym when not in use!

I brought this product after searching for a quality roman chair online. I found that this product offered the best option for quality and space saving. Great product.

I needed a way to do nordic curls and back extensions, so being able to do both with one piece of equipment is awesome. Feels solid to use and doesn't take up too much space, especially when folded.
Max has been very helpful with sorting shipping to New Zealand, everything arrived quickly and well packaged.

The Tib Tool has been a game changer for me. For many years I had knee pain and now using this along with static holds on the leg extension, my knee pain has gone completely. I Incorporate this two days a week on my leg days in the gym. No more driving the car on long trips and having to stop and get out and stretch my legs. Highly recommend if you have knee pain caused by tendinitis.

Solid piece of equipment. I am tall and it handles my body no worries.

The new design an improvement as stated on their website! Customer service was very helpful with a few of my questions and grated the discount past the sale period.

Easy enough to build and follow along instructions!

Highly recommend and good pricing!

Delivery was fast and everything was packaged really well. All parts were clearly labelled, the required tools were included, and assembly was straightforward.
The machine itself is excellent quality; solid construction, thick steel, comfortable padding, and easy to adjust.
Customer service was also great. They replied to emails quickly, were friendly and professional, and made the whole process easy. Very happy with the purchase.

I have been using the nordic back extension in clinic for the past month.
I use it personally, and have a number of clinical clients that use in group and individual sessions. Currently, it is being used by clients with scoliosis and other spinal conditions, some of these clients are aged in their 80s.

After constructing and testing the equipment, it is sturdy and stable and is very useful with varying heights and sizing to fit many different body shapes and sizes.

Awesome machine, does both Nordic and back extensions very well. Highly recommended

Really great piece of kit. First day using it today and it’s great! I’ve also got the reverse treadmill and it’s fantastic. Thanks TibTool

Just got the reverse treadmill and I’m loving it. It’s great to warmup doing backward walking before I get into the more intense part of the workout. I’ve started using it before Nordic curls and it seems to give me a good burn. Super solid build, smooth belt, and assembly was straightforward. Stores upright, so I keep it downstairs in the garage without taking up space.

Quick delivery and good customer service. Love the tool. Have been using it everyday and can see the improvement of my hamstrings. Highly recommend.

I’ve been using the multi flex strap regularly, and it’s been a huge help for improving my ankle mobility and strengthening my tibs and hip flexors. I didn’t realise how much I was neglecting certain muscles until I started using this. The difference in stability and control has been huge. As with all The Tib Tool products, the quality is 2nd to none. Super durable, well built and affordable. I definitely recommend using the multi strap for lower body training, you won’t regret getting one of these. Also great to take travelling for quick workouts.

Essential for training nordics. The strong and comfortable build of the bench makes doing nordics much more enjoyable and fun rather than just using a nordic bar. Premium materials were also used to make this beast. It is a great investment for anyone wanting to train their hamstrings in a new way, instead of purely relying on deadlifts at the gym. My leg strength has gotten considerably better over the last month of consistent training of Nordics. My family also likes to use the bench for situps. The practicality of being able to use at home was another reason I decided to invest in this Nordic bench.

This Nordic Bench Mini is a must-have for my hamstring workouts! As someone who is always looking for ways to prevent injury and strengthen my body, the Nordic bench has quicly become a staple in my routine. The design is really well made every part fits perfectly together & includes easy to follow instructions. Its easy to see that no corners were cut in the production of this bench, I especially like the ankle padding and the ability to change the ankle lock height. The wheels on the front of the Nordic Bench make it easy to move around. Super solid when using so you feel safe when doing Nordic curls.

I absolutely love this Nordic Bench for my home gym, it has become an essential tool Ive been using to strengthen my glutes and hamstrings. The build quality is outstanding, extremely solid for when Im doing explosive hamstring curls. For the days I focus on slow and controlled reps, the knee and ankle padding on the bench is really comfortable, even during longer sessions. If you are using the Nordic bar bench at home it is really easy to move around to suit a small space. I also follow the ATG workouts so this is really a game changer for my mobility. Really great price point, very affordable compared to other Nordic benches on the market.

Very happy with my Nordic Bench Mini, which is easy to move around and takes up only small floor space. It is built well, with the metal structure strong steel and the padding comfortable and appears hard wearing.

No instructions included to build it, but it is rather straight forward just by having a look at some product pictures.

This is my first time trying Nordics, and they feel fantastic for the hamstrings and happy to be regularly including them. Much more contraction than Glute Ham Raises.

Attached photo of it tucked between my stall bars, of which I currently use bands and a belt-squat harness under arm pits to reduce the load. A sled-dragging harness can also work very well.

The Nordic Bench Mini is a great addition to my garage gym, easy to setup and use weekly. The bench is extremely sturdy for training Nordics and also for performing sit ups. I was able to get better at Nordic curls by using a yoga ball while focusing on eccentric reps (on the way down). Really targets the hamstring muscles like no other. Great space saver at home as I can store it vertically when I am finished with training. Definitely recommend buying if you are after the best lower body workout.

Such a well built piece of equipment with no issue of having to worry about weights falling off, as clips are great too! Awesome tool when looking to isolate the muscles of the hip and a must for me and my training! HIGHLY recommend 🔥

Let me begin by saying that Ive had bad knees for a long time and adding Nordic curls to my weekly gym schedule has made a huge difference to reducing my pain and making my legs much stronger. If you suffer from knee pain or any lower body weakness I definitely recommend adding Nordic training with the Nordic bench mini. It is great to use at home as it doesnt take up too much room and when I am finished with a workout I can store it vertically or horizontally so that it is out of the way. This Nordic Bench is built to last with high quality welds and high quality materials. The adjustable ankle rollers are great to ensure you feel like you are attached to the bench when doing the Nordics. If you have ever trained hamstrings you can definitely tell the difference from performing machine curls versus Nordic curls. Nordics most definitely engage the hamstrings in a way that is not possible with a machine a huge difference. Easy to put together with very clear instructions. As someone who is 80kg I dont require any weight plates on the back but it is nice to know that I can add weight plates with the adjustable sleeve. And if you want even more stability the back legs have 2 holes that can be used to screw into the floor to stop any movement.

Fantastic piece of equipment that I have been incorporating into my Knees Over Toes Training Program. Like with other Tib Tool products that I have bought, the quality is 2nd to none. It is made out of super strong steel and has thick padding for your feet. I like that they include extra thick foam for when I train at home barefoot. They include a strong clamp that can hold more than you will ever need for tib training. It is also easy to take to the gym as it has a detachable weight shaft. If you have any knee pain or shin splints, I definitely recommend including tibialis exercises into your weekly programming.

This Nordic Bench Mini is great for weekly training and something I have been using for the last month in my ATG programming. I already found great benefits from using the tib bar and thought I might try out hamstring curls. Im really impressed with the quality of the Nordic Bench considering it is such a good price & performs much better than other more bulky Nordic Benches. The addition of the weight plate bar for counter balance is a smart feature so you can perform Nordic Curls safely at home. Another great feature is that the Bench includes a 25mm & 50mm adjustable shaft and this is great at my home gym where I use the 25mm weight plates. The Bench itself is solid as a rock, made out of strong steel. The ankle rollers to lock in your feet are super comfortable whilst also ensuring you are locked into position for doing the Nordic curl. The knob at the end of the bench allows you to adjust the height of the rollers so you can change it depending on your height. The quality is top tier on this Nordic Bench and includes instructions for assembly that only takes a couple of minutes. Nordic hamstring curls can be a difficult exercise to do but you can attach an exercise band to make them easier. I have definitely seen an improvement in my lower body strength when running or playing basketball. Highly recommend.
