I had a bad ankle sprain 2 years ago that doctors and physical therapists have struggled with. I recently started working out to get back my athleticism as I am a basketball player and want to get back into shape . This took pain away from my posterior tibial tendon (which is the problem area immediately) . Thank you so much I can continue my quest 💯❤️👊🏾
After 6 months of consistent routine of doing all these exercises twice a day i have finally got back to my 90% strength .i thankyou with all my heart.guys be consistent my case was very severe but i m back to 90% it caused me great deal of pain and setbacks but eventually i knew i will make it and so will you guys!!!
the mortar and pestle analogy was the best aspect of your vid. I'm on week 8 of a Grade 2 and I'm still trying to get up to that next level. die hard trail runner here, thx
You have just blown my mind about ankle mobility/stability! I have tried to understand it and thought I had a pretty good idea but I have just learnt so much with many things to take back to my clients! Amazing Thank you!
This was extremely informative. I am 3 months out of a boot after a severe ankle injury and still struggling greatly with balance and some swelling / pain. You explained what not to do and why it's important to have good balance. Going to add some of these in to my daily exercises. I also have a history of foot sprains on my other foot, so I think both ankles will benefit from these.
I learned soooo much from this video! I'm a Pilates instructor, personal trainer, rowing coach... and also have recovered form several ankle injuries over the years... best video ever! I think it helps that you're so hot, too!
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Tore the ligaments clean on either side of my ankle. Docs never gave me any therapy advice for how to rehab. I’ve been struggling to figure it out myself for two months before I came across this video. It’s a life saver! Thank you!
I've rolled my ankle many times from years of doing boxing. It's been really bumming me out because my ankles have started to become a liability. Great video. I'm gonna try all these things!
One month later. Just an update. I've been doing the ankle circles (plus ankle alphabet) and the balance training. and so far I've found its helped quite a bit. I'm gonna try to move onto more exercises
Good stuff. I'm 4 weeks out of brostrum surgery and quadratic scope and just started walking and self-rehabbing. These will help me gain my mobility back big-time. I'll check in with progress weekly under this comment
A little while ago I got out of a cast for a foot fracture but the many weeks of immobilization stiffened my foot, ankle and lower leg, so some of these exercises will be helpful. My PT assigned me to a kinesiologist who didn't give me many exercises to progress. She only gave me the basics of rolling the ankle and foot adduction/abduction using a theraband.
Thanks so much for this wonderful and detailed video. I've been doing these exercises daily and my ankle pain has gone away. Your explanation is wonderful and easy to follow. Thanks again.
I had a minor sprain that I never did anything for and got gradually worse in February, still in pain now when I put weight on it so I'm getting an MRI in 2 weeks, I'll see if I can treat it before with exercise ehehe, thanks so much
I get metatarsal pain when I run. Podiatrist just offered me insoles, no rehab. I'm worried about the idea of standing on a lacross ball irritating it more but I'm going to start slow with a table to reduce the load. I can't imagine two minutes. Hoping this can help me feet get tougher. Great video.
Thank you SO much for this range of ankle strengthening exercises, by far the most comprehensive & efficient video I've come across! Also the preventative exercises are gold! I'll be using these exercise in my routine! Thanks again 😄
Haven’t tried the exercises yet, but will. Sprained my right ankle two years ago and even after PT have constant flare ups on outer right side running down into foot and baby toe. Thank you for posting! 🌹
Thank you! I have an ankle sprain every other year or so (currently dealing with my worst one yet), and while I have learned how to recover relatively fast from them, I haven't been great with rehab exercises or prevention (evidently...). I'll incorporate these into my exercise routine.
All of these were really good exercises. I've sprained my ankle multiple times and I'm definitely going to be incorporating these in my regime. Thanks so much ! Appreciate it immensely ❤️
Wow, truly blown away by your depth of understanding and humility.. How would I ask you specific questions about my ankle problem? I'm so tired of useless public health 'physio-therapists' ... Will be trying all of these stability exercises anyway ;) x
Thank you for this wonderful post! So thorough and comprehensive. As a professional ballet dancer, I have recurring ankle pain and lateral instability. I feel better already having done your compilation of exercises. I am going to do this daily. I have seen so many professionals for this and your work is the best! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
That did wonders for me. I honestly thought Id have to live with the ankle pain after stressing it from activities. After just a couple of days its already so much better!
Thanks for this informative video. I've sprained both my ankles this year and triggered gout flare up as a result. Will definitely add some of these exercises in conjunction to what my physiotherapist has prescribed me.
Thanks for the most efficient ankle exercise on youtube. I definitely use this Thanks!! (I want to address this I have no ankle problem but for proper squat, the ankle must hold in balance whole body they said(later not to have back injuries) so I want to work on my balance: The reason I give extra information, maybe it helps for your content creation)
Hi! I wanted to thank you for posting this very helpful video. I had a sprain that wasn't treated properly a few years ago and now my ankle is still unstable. I literally hear the bones ( Joints?) when I do the circle, it cracks so much. I hope these exercises are right for me 😂
Same thing happened to me. I sprained it badly 5 years ago and I wasn’t treated properly by physical therapy. Literally was shown 2 stretches and then was told there’s nothing they can do. Unfortunately my ankle is weak and I’m prone to spraining it when I walk on uneven pavement. Really annoying especially now that I’m pregnant. Love people like this guy who actually puts good information out into this world! Sometimes doctors and PTs suck and this is coming from someone who was a nurse for 10 years. Taking our own health into our own hands is something I had to learn over the years. I’m into Homeopathy and Herbalism now and now Bulletproof ankles!!!
Thank you for this. My issue now is that I'm scared of falling again, hence scared of walking. I am doing some gym exercises and in the pool, but again this afternoon my ankle gave away and I was about to fall again crossing the street. I'll try your exercises now. Thank you
This is all good for rehab after a broken ankle as well?? I just broke my ankle/leg really bad, got 2 plates 14 screws. Trying to get myself back to normal after I recover. Thanks
Thank you so much for this video! I sprained my ankle 5 years ago, went to a PT and they didn’t show me any exercises / just said “there’s not much I can do, you just need to let it heal.” Now I have a weak left ankle that sprains often if I walk on uneven pavement. Now that I’m pregnant…my center of gravity is off and I unfortunately sprained it twice. Thankfully I’m early on in my pregnancy and I’m finally going to put this into my own hands and work on getting bulletproof ankles with your video. Question: if I slightly sprained it yesterday- how soon should I start these exercises?
Hello, I just sprained my ankle today.. should I wait some time before doing the excercises? When should I start them? In 2 days or in a week? My sprain is really mild, it is one of those sprains that happen subconsciously because the ankle isn't strenghtened. I think it is like grade 1
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! I will apply this and hope for the best. Until my ankle strengthens, is it a good idea to continue to use an ankle brace when I'm active?
@@chirofarm cool thanks. I have a lot of ankle problems from repeated sprains. Your video is awesome. I even started rowing after seeing your video. I love it! Thanks for your video.
When best to start these excercises after an slight ankle sprain? Need to get back to my ultra marathon training. Only been a week. Was getting better but went out for too long walk yesterday and hurting again. Can bare weight on it. Need to run for my sanity.
Millie no movement is inherently bad and if we demonize movement we create fear avoidance and false beliefs. A movement that is painful is when we decide to temporarily eliminate that movement and choose a new strategy. When you lose the ability to move into a position like ‘knee valgus’, when you do get pushed there you’re surely going to get injured. Prepare for the worst, expect the best.
Hello, i had an ankle sprain almost 5-6 years ago, and didnt treat it quite well. I Still hear the joint when i move my ankle from time to time and sometimes it hurts . Can please anyone advice how long should this be done ? And what about sets any usuall recomnadation ?
There is persistent pain in my ankle and it’s been more than 10 months since I sprained my ankle. It’s a weird sensation I feel nearby lateral ligament. Doctor said i don’t need surgery but it will heal on it’s own. Do you have any recommendation to get rid of the little sensation (pain) I am felling.
Great vid👍🏼 Question I sprain my ankle once a month and it’s been years…Am I at a point of no return and should see a specialist or do you think these exercises will help? Thanks again! 👍🏼🙏🏼
Hello,I met with accident on 17th feb 2022 and in xray it showed tissues swelling and the right ankle was swollen real bad but now it’s normal but the swelling is still there not completely healed but there is not one percent also pain please suggest something?
Question about the movement with the towel: the point is to try to fight against the immobilization of the foot? So making small movements while in the lock? Thanks!
I'm about a week into my ankle sprain. Swelling is gone but pain is still a factor. When should i start performing some of the things in the video, can i start now?
I did the cars and honestly my feet kind of hurt, I did it trying not to move the tibial bone to my best but just wanted to give my input on that idk if it’s the best thing to do with bad or weak ankles/Achilles tendons.
@@chirofarm is there any tips or advice you can give me ? at the moment due to my injuries I don’t have the funds to pay for that kind of stuff right now.
isn't digging your toes in the ground while balancing on 1 leg kinda cheating? Honest question. I find it a way to creat fake balance. I heard Cal dietz making athletes stand with their toes flexed up relying on your arch? I know its different situations but I'm curious on your thoughts.
Have you ever seen a baby lift it's toes up to balance, or any other athlete try to balance without toes? If you cut your big toe off you will have terrible balance. Your foot is your interface with the ground and your muscles are responsible for most of the proprioception in your foot. I don't think I would want to eliminate the use of feedback in order to create better feedback (balance). Cal may know S&C but he don't know balance.
@@chirofarm Thanks for the reply, I get where you are coming from. Its never the best to try to relay someones else's worlds lol so I'm not sure I spoke on his behalf correctly
Really enjoyed the video! I have chronic ankle injuries on both sides. Is it okay to feel popping in the ankle joint when doing the first ankle rotation exercise, or is this creating further injury? Thanks!
