I recently came across Andrew Huberman talking about tibialis raises with Tim Ferris. The conversation was full of misinformation regarding this area of sports medicine and it's time to set the record straight.

It’s a nice breath of fresh air to see someone on the internet, instead of insulting and dismissing someone for being wrong, give them credit where credit is due then simply explain why they’re wrong
-
Doctor Huberman is a neuroscientist. Not a podiatrist or a sports medicine doctor. When I want brain advice I listen to Doctor Huberman. When I want sports medicine, I'll watch Doctor Sutterer.

It's so frustrating that somebody I've learned so much from like Huberman can spew the rubbish that they themselves would have condemned in the past. Really worries me about what information I've taken on in the past. Appreciate you letting us know about this, Doc.
-
The one thing I hate about most people in these professions, is that instead of just saying they don't know, they'll spread nonsense. Good on Brian for pointing this specific case out. If Huberman can confidently state one lie, who's to say he doesn't do this on the regular.
-
This is a sobering reminder to question "experts" especially when they stray from their areas of expertise. Smart people can believe (and push) stupid things. Kudos for enlightening us on this false information.

I play hockey as a goalie. We do the "wierdest" movements and by extention wierdest strengthening & balance exercises (especially those of us using butterfly, what you see in modern NHL vs the previous generations that were more on their feet). Some of us explode up off that muscle group, probably making for some relatively strong & regularly activated "tibs". Multiple times a game, in full wet gear. FYI: When we sleep, our ankle/feet relax like normal people.

If "glutes not firing" was mentioned you could have had "Bingo".

The Hubris of Huberman is astounding
-
Im a PT student and i absolutely love this kind off content <3 plz do more off these videos
-
As a PT student right now I appreciate your videos. Would also love a follow-up video on Joe Burrow’s wrist injury. Thank you for your insight as always!
-
Possibly my favorite video you have done. More content debunking the b.s. these influencers spread please.
-
I’m not educated enough to fact check him, but I’ve always sensed snakeoil salesman vibes.
-
Brian, I greatly appreciate you doing this. I'm a bioengineer by training and have been an athlete most of my life. When huberman talks about things well outside of his specialty it drives me absolutely crazy. There is so much more than what you've talked about here but I really appreciate someone with a platform saying these things.
-
I think the public needs more education on how to spot bad information, myself included. I like that you point out the red flag of generalized statements with sweeping conclusions. You and Dr. Mike do a great job teaching people how to think critically.

Buzz word soup is the formula for online fame
-
I am a big fan oh Huberman. I have learned a lot about how different drugs effect the brain, light exposure, and focus. But this is the reason why it is absolutely necessary to listen to a wide variety of people on the same topics.
-
I really enjoy(ed) a lot of stuff from Huberman (and his guests) but as soon as I realized how hard he pushes the AG1 scam while mixing true aspects with ridiculous exaggeration I knew that you have to take everything he says with buckets full of salt ;)
-
Love this video. As a physical therapist I’m a fan of Tibialis raises as it’s another muscle to exercise to strengthen the ankle joint, but hate seeing a lot of fitness “influencers” making all these claims how training the anterior tib will fix knee pain and other body parts as mentioned in this video. Great job covering this 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
-
Excellent message! Don’t go looking for problems you don’t have
-
This was most professional and respectful undressing of an internet personality "influencer" I've ever seen in my life. 10/10 would watch Dr Sutterer destroy "experts" again
