Exercises I use regularly with my ankle rehab clients.

Common muscle qualities we work on:

1. Improve calf and achilles tendon strength.

2. Improve intrinsic foot strength.

I like to use these movements during low back pain rehab assessment.

Here’s why:

1. Active SLR: loooking at the trunk/pelvis ability to stabilize as they initiate leg movement.

2. Split Squat Iso: testing single leg strength and endurance.

3. Forearm Plank: assessing preferred stabilization strategies.

4. Breathing: the breathing muscles and ribcage are important for trunk stability.

We’re looking to assess and modify symptoms during these movements to guide the rehab process.

Athlete/Model:

She traveled 8,000+ miles and made time for a two week intensive rehab process.

We focused on hip mobility and strength - working within her natural restrictions.

I first met her last fall and it was great to see the progress and build on the foundations we built last time.

Exercise selection was important, but also using the right cues to help her feel the right muscles made the biggest difference.
