    This video shares a passive and active combo for developing ankle mobility for a warm-up before a training session for squatting, sport etc. This routine works on releasing the calf, stretching the calves, and developing dorsiflexion by using the anterior tibialis.

    This is a brief routine that relies mainly on neurological change. If you don’t see improvements then consider trying two rounds of the final drills or including some loaded work such as weighted calf raises and longer duration stretches 💪

    My ankles were so tight to start with, and my left ankle was/is has way less range of motion than my right.

    Could you do a routine for wrists and hands. Drawing and playing guitar as my hobby so my wrists, forearms and fingers tend to get tigth from lot of precise work.
    Your routines have been extremely helpfull to me and you infact inspired me to start calisthenics few years ago. I do martial arts as my main form of exrcise and calisthenics + mobility training has been a really good combination and helped me to improve my technique.
    Currently my main focus has been on hip mobility.

    This was painful. Pretty much every drill. Think I've found my new favourite (at least, most beneficial) stretching routine. Saw about a centimeter of improvement.. maybe? (From embarrassingly bad.) But mostly my ankles screaming at me what the hell I'm doing. I think they'll loosen up a lot more once they get used to being stretched.
    Thank you for this routine!

    Personally I think this is something I want to incorporate into my weekly routine as my ankles do cave inward and subsequently my knees (but the right one worse) so I have always hated squats and lunges.. and the results off one session definitly improved those motions.

    What do you think if someone has a lot of knee crepitus when doing things like that fisherman calf stretch? Anyway to clear that up/prevent so much crackling? Is something else weak causing the knee cap to move off track?

    My dorsi flexion is greatly superior when standing as opposed to kneeling as you've shown as the test in this video.
    Could this imply some other muscles could be affecting dorsiflexion In a squat?

    Even if I put my toes against the wall my knee is about 4 cm from it. I've been trying to fix my dorsiflexion for years and nothing helps. It feels like the bones in my ankle are preventing movement because I don't feel any stretch in my calves.

    Hey Tom, I used your last ankle video to help fix my squat and it has gone great flexibility wise, but not so well strength wise. I play lacrosse and I have to get my ankles wrapped basically everyday now because of pain, I am assuming it is because I gained flexibility, but did not gain strength in them, what can I do to fix this?

    • @lukerenne
      @lukerenne 2 роки тому +2

      Strengthen you calves. Focus on doing calf raises and putting the weight on the ball of your foot. Also do some band work for your ankles specifically. Google band ankle strengthening and you’ll find some results

    • @xyzyzx1253
      @xyzyzx1253 2 роки тому +1

      Also it sounds like you need rest, if you’re exerting effort onto painful joints, no amount of mobility work will ever supersede the need for proper rest.
      Rest and mobilisation are key before you can start strengthening,
      If you try and strength train an exhausted body, it will do far more harm than good!
      Be careful, rest, adjust your protocol to your limits, not the other way around!
      Stay safe x

      Ankle stiffness refers to how strong and "springy" your ankle is, not how short its range of motion is. Stretching it should be fine as long as you balance it out by also strengthening it through its full range of motion.

    • @Umbrellagasm

      Its myofacial release - sustained pressure in one spot sends an inhibitory response to the stretch reflex. Of course, if its really not helping you, do something else. I find myofascial release good for pain personally, less helpful for mobility. Bodies are weird
