👣👣Happy Feet 👣👣- Ankle Strengthening & Rehabilitation Exercises: Our feet & ankles do SO much work for us every day. Don't forget to give them some love too 👣💟! Try these ankle strengthening exercises at home: 1) Alphabet Drawing: Extrinsic muscle movements to strengthen the ankle and calf muscles. Slowly draw the alphabet with your ankle and toes, A-Z. A simple range of motion exercise good for recovering from an ankle sprain and supporting overall healthy motion. 2) Sock Grabs: Strengthening the very deep, Intrinsic Ankle muscles by grabbing the sock with your toes, picking it up and releasing. Try to wrap every single toe around the sock, hold 5-10 seconds for 10x reps. 3) Plantar Flexion w/ Thera-Band: Pointing your toes away from the body. Add resistance w/ a thera-band to increase ankle and toe strength. Choose a speed that is comfortable for you, perform 10x consecutive, at an even tempo, then hold for 15 seconds, repeat 3x sets/ x10 reps. #fit #fitspo #yoga #strength #rehab #woodhallwellness #bewelltoyourself #toes #happyfeet #ankle #healthy #training #prevention #everydamnday #practice #commitment #patience #motivation #inspire #wellness #move #mobility See full video on Andrea's Instagram feed: 📸Instagram.com/woodhall_wellness/ & my Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/woodhallwellness/ (link also above)
