Short Class 65: Ankle Dorsiflexion
3 classes per week
•
24m
Single joint focus class for Dorsiflexion.
No Equipment Needed.
Ankle Dorsiflexion is very important for squatting, lunging, running, jumping, and many other movements.
I often see people hammer away at hip mobility drills to improve their squat, and they don't address their limitation in ankle dorsiflexion. Which is incredibly important as a squatter. Good ankle dorsiflexion allows you to express movements at the Knee and Hip far more efficiently. If we have limitations in the ankles, areas above and below (foot, knee and hip) will have to be forced to compensate.
We will work 3 rounds of PAILs/RAILs in our Dorsiflexion base, but always listen to your body and go at your own pace. If 3 rounds feels like too much, stick to just 2 rounds and slowly build up - or do the 3rd round at much lower intensities.
Hope you enjoy these ankles gains!
