I have really floppy and hypermobile ankle joints and I’ve always been prone to twisting and straining my ankles. Aside from this routine is there any additional strength work or repetition changes I should make to improve that specifically? I really to work towards dancing in heels 🙂
I’m doing this weeks VIP for feet, I just finished planning it! I have the same issue and have always tended to roll my ankles out of nowhere! Doing these have personally helped! This routine will really help. The Foot Ab/ad and ankle rotations are a good focus.
Absolutely loved this!!! Besides poler, I’m a runner and this help conditioning my feet for that too ☺ï¸
Yay!
