This video was the start of soooooo much for me in my fitness journey. I will always be grateful for it 🥹 I had zero physical awareness!!.. much less stability/mobility/strength. I have come SO FAR! It’s incredible what one simple exercise can do!!! (The Ziggys). Now I am able to do advanced HIIT training. A dream come true! I had been sedentary my entire life, overweight and suffered injuries as a result. 31 year old female. I first did this video two years ago.
I used to have weak ankles - would end up on the floor or ground at random times! These exercises were easy but very effective and I haven't had a fall for over 5 years now.

I sprained my anlke about six weeks ago and it still "gives" from time to time. This is not the first time it's happened! As an organist, I need to keep my ankles in good shape for playing the pedals. Thanks so much for these brilliant exercises, which I'll be starting today.
I'm working on my ankle strength/mobility and glute strength in preparation to start doing some running after a really long break. Love it that you just made videos on both! Thank you 😊
Had bad ankle pain for 4 years. Saw an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in ankles. No help. After 2 weeks of your ankle exercise, 4 years of pain went away. Still doing 20 reps a day. 5 months & still No pain. I'm 81 years old.
I happen to have balance issues, suffer from weak ankles & these are the same exercises I was told to do by a physical therapist after my injury. They helped & after trying these again, I think it's time for me to start doing them again & add them to my daily routine again. I really could feel the "burn"! I use an old shower pole for balance.
Thank you so much. I have been feeling a painful tingle in my right ankle. The 2nd exercise identified where it was located. It hurts, so my first instinct is to stop, but it may be more beneficial to keep going, with hopes that it will alleviate the issue. Please wish me luck.
Thank you so much for these. I broke my ankle and had ORIF surgery 7 weeks ago. I'm now walking and full weight bearing. I'm doing great and will be implementing these exercises as soon as I'm strong enough.
@@pulkitkumar3942 These will do miracles for you, do them. Also look up videos on ankle proprioception and do those exercises as well. They will help you a lot
Was just this evening wondering about how to strengthen my ankles and eventually my lower body and here I find this video.... however did you pick on my thoughts.!!
Great video! I know I have some lateral instability in my ankles and have been wanting to find appropriate exercises to correct this. Thank you so much for posting😊👍🏻
Thank you so much for that explanation. I have heel spurs and plantar fasciitis pain, but the swelling is at the lateral side of the ankles. So I’m assuming I have to do the zig zag exercise. I also have twitching muscles. My podiatrist ordered orthotics, but so far that has not helped. It seems that puts more strain on my ankles.
i had a LEFT total knee replacement 5 weeks ago. My knee was varus (bowed) 10 degrees prior to surgery. I am starting to walk farther distances now and seem to be tripping over my own feet sometimes. I looked down while walking and also observed myself in a mirror and my LEFT foot points toward midline or toes in, turns inward. Would these exercises help that problem? Will it eventually correct itself in time? Two questions. Thank you. I hope you answer.

This sounds good for me, as i have broken both my ankles and gone through rehabilitation. My problem is stairs. My PT had me squeeze my buttocks as I take each step up, and this is good. But stepping down stairs is horrible! I don't know how to control it so that it doesn't end up pounding my 200+ lbs weight on one foot. Would this "ziggy - ziggy dance" work for that? Or is there some other foot exercise to assist me going downstairs like squeezing my buttocks REALLY does help me go upstairs? Thanks. I wait for your reply with bated breath.
Ankle sprain is the most shitiest thing that can happen too you be careful before you start running you I’ll need a nice and perfect warmup if you do it wrong you I’ll get Pergament injury!!trust me ankle sprain is not a joke it holds your whole body weight never forget my words train your ankles make a good steel ankles then start your hobby

Unfortunately, there are many trolls about, who derive much enjoyment from delivering destructive criticism merely for the sake of it.
Amen..

Which videos do you follow for glutes

I’m 69. I had weak ankles as a child. Ankles too weak to roller skate. I’m using a walker since mid 2016. Was very glad to find you guys!
May ask why yu have had weak ankles?
I just recently sprained both ankles at different times but very close to each other, and this helps tremendously!
Had bad ankle pain for 4 years. Saw an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in ankles. No help.
After 2 weeks of your ankle exercise, 4 years of pain went away. Still doing 20 reps a day. 5 months & still No pain. I'm 81 years old.
That makes me incredibly sad that the ortho didn't help

Thank you for these, especially the ziggy zaggy. I broke my ankle 3 years ago and it is a constant battle keeping the strength up!

Love these exercises guys. I'm a chronic ankle sprained. Will be incorporating these in my routine. In fact, just did em ! Thanks !
Bro, how did they work out?? Even i keep spraining my ankles. How useful are these to stop my sprains?
Oh my gosh! These are wonderful and exactly what I need! Thanks Bob & Brad!
Please do more videos about recovering and strengthening the ankle, knees and back... ur work is great! .. thank you
Would be great if they show seated exercises, too!
I’m going to do these, broke my ankle last November and think this is going to help especially as it affected my hip. Thank you so much for sharing
Hey bro. Hope you are fine now. Could you tell me how well they have worked. Its been 7 months now

Have fallen many many times and thank God never broke a bone. Yay. But did tear stuff in my ankle. no fun!
As a PTA I am always looking for new ways to help patients...have never thought of the ziggy ...love it!
Thank you for protecting our ankles! 👏👏👏 Folding this into my daily exercise 🙌
You guys are awesome. My calves and ankles were destroyed during the police academy workouts and running. This helped soothe a bit
Thanks for these exercises
I needed this right now! Just got out into a boot for a weak ankle am for 3 weeks and it’s a pain in the butt!

Glad you enjoyed it!
20th Nov 2023 have marked 1 year from my ankle fracture and surgery,just want know what exercises can I do to strengthen the ankle and stiffness
Thanks
Do you have anything to do for ankles after a stroke?
Starts at 3:19 good grief 😓
fantastic!
Would this exercise be OK if you have shin splints?
Hi Bob and Brad, very good video, especially the dance, I say peroneal. Loves😘
If someone has bad knees, would the side one be okay? I can’t do balance exercises because of my knees.
Hi there Brad & Bob, i just love you guys, you are both such a joy, that you even make me forget about my painful ankle & hip ;-)>
What equipment are you using for your microphone headset❓
Charleston? Or you could do the robot ala the Jackson5
Any good videos for problematic Achilles?
Any exercise on the sciatica?
They have a video on it already
You bet, we have a playlist on this subject. Search it and you should be able to find all you need.
7:36
Have you guys ever considered becoming dance instructors?
lol
But raising to high gets a bigger calf and I need bigger ankles
It’s easy to lift my heels but when I lift toes I really feel it in my knees, is that ok or normal?
Wow James Brown really was ahead of his time he created a dance doing that exercise. 😄
I can for the intro stayed for the advise
Christmas special

Where can I order one of those sticks?

Firstly you both said no equipment needed and then produced these poles!
Secondly what is it called and where do I buy one?
Use the stick of a an old broom or mop
You can use a chair or a table

Ziggy Zaggy will not help so much for going down steps, I would advise quadricep strengthening. Ask your PT for this.

If you do the ziggy ziggys on carpet barefoot, it tickles😊
I wish yall wouldn't talk over each other so much and just do the workout lol
Don't yu guys know how to moon walk 😆😆
Can we do these exercices barefoot?
Yes. I di them barefoot.
Damn putting home boy down at the end was in poor taste
Can you do this barefoot
perineal is NOT the same thing as perineal hahaha
The 1:20 long intro is ridiculously long. It has turned me away from this channel to be honest. Great content as always but cut that down plz!
go then!
That is the beauty of YT. Skipping!! Plus, they have personality and lots of viewers enjoy this.

Yea If they’d switch their give away and Facebook advertisement for the end they’d save 30-40 seconds from the intro. At the end of the day It’s just my two cents that some people seem to be upset by lol
So much talking
They both don’t have clear speech use stories, bla bla bla Just be focused 😮
