Struggling with ankle pain and wobbliness?
You probably feel the most ankle pain when landing tumbling skills, right? And for flyers, the most instability when you're standing on one foot? It's likely due to one or both of these: weak muscles surrounding the ankle and inadequate joint mobility for the skills you're doing.
I've put together a list of my favourite exercises and stretches for strong feet and stable, but mobile, ankles. They can all easily be done at home with no equipment, aside from a resistance band and foam roller.
You'll see improvement not only in your ankle stability and range of motion, but also in your toe point!
What's included?
⭐1 downloadable PDF for you to follow along with at your own pace, on your own schedule
⭐Video demonstrating key areas to foam roll to improve ankle mobility and relieve pain
⭐13 strength exercises for the muscles of the foot and lower leg
⭐4 stretches for the anterior and posterior lower leg
Hello, I'm Deryn!
I've been involved in all star cheerleading for the past 14 years as both an athlete and coach. I'm a Registered Kinesiologist, which is also sometimes known as an exercise scientist or athletic trainer. I completed a Master of Science in Sports Science & Rehabilitation, a Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology and a Diploma in Fitness in Health Promotion. My goal is to provide educational content to the cheer community through social media, training programs and courses. I want cheerleaders to train right so they can perform better!
FAQs
Do I pay a one-time fee or a subscription?
You only pay a one-time fee. There is no subscription or recurring payment.
Can I access the program on my phone or tablet?
Yes, you can access it on any device.
Can I download the training program?
Yes, you will be able to download the PDF document and even print it out for reference while conditioning/stretching.
Can I do the program at home or do I need to be in a gym?
You can do the program 100% at home. It was designed to be completed anywhere, with minimal use of equipment.
What equipment do I need?
It is recommended that you use the following, since some exercises/stretches involve use of these tools:
- 1 resistance band
- 1 foam roller, massage ball or lacrosse ball
What if I don't have the required equipment?
For best results, it is recommended that you use the equipment listed above. If you are unable to, you may leave out the exercises/stretches that require its use or use alternatives.
Can I also do stretches or exercises that aren't included in the programs?
Of course! There are tons of stretches and exercises - too many to be included in only this program. If you find anything in the program to be ineffective, you can replace it with a different stretch/exercise or variation that works better for you.
The programs include a variety of stretches and exercises that are intended to be effective for the average person at each level - they are not customized. Therefore, you may find some parts to be too easy or difficult for your abilities.
Is my credit card safe?
Yes. Stripe will handle the billing and provide a secure socket layer, 128-bit encryption. As Teachable has said, your credit card data is safer making an online purchase through this secure site than it is when paying for gas or buying food at a restaurant. So, feel comfortable knowing your transaction is completely protected from fraud.
Do you offer any refunds?
Sorry, unfortunately there are no refunds due to the nature of the product. Since the programs can be downloaded, there is no way to return them.
