How to Increase Ankle Mobility in 3 Steps

How to Increase Hip Mobility: https://youtu.be/U7nzE21iSNU

Just to save you ten minutes of your life: 7:40 Deep squat, 8:24 Single leg variant, 9:39 Standing exercise

Yes, hip mobility video, please. Afraid I have both problems.

This was great! Even with the ad included. Very instructive. Thank you! I especially like the deep squat single leg variation where you explore different angles. Likewise with the step up version which is a cross over instead of just straight on. Can't wait to try these variations! And yes please for hip mobility video! Going to check now whether you have one.

Just what I have been looking for! An injury from childhood has resulted in a weak left foot which I have struggled to make connection with. I look forward to trying the exercise using the step!!

Thanks for the great videos. I've always been skinny but active throughout my life. Played all kinds of sports and I even did a half marathon when I was 18 and finished under 2 hours and 20 mins. Like I wasn't jacked but I was pretty ripped people say. Now I'm 27, ten years later and I barely can do any of the exercises I used to. Last time I actively worked out was 21. Because of depression, past memories rising to the surface I never processed, and not taking accountability for myself I smoked weed and drank my body in the plunder. Finally had the wake up call recently to get off my ass and make something of myself. So, thanks for the videos, it's hard getting back into exercise after so long of not doing it and treating your body like crap.

I love that cross-legged ankle mob. I had been doing a basic variation for months now with minimal progress and it never dawned on me to explore slightly different directions and not just dorsiflexion. Thank you, this is exactly what I needed.

I have a voguing competition in a few weeks and I hope to have a bit of improvement to do some cool dips and drops. I might come back to report my progress and how the competition went! 04.03.24 - Day 1: I did some regular squats and practiced falling safely on a mat just before watching this video. Tomorrow I'll start the ankle and hip mobility exercises and also start doing yoga. 05.03.2024 - Day 2: I did about half an hour of low-intensity and low-impact exercises today. I used LeanBeefPatty's full-body mobility warmup before this routine. My ankle exercises were assisted deep squats (advised by Barefoot Strength), calf raises and tibialis raises (advised by Squat University and Hybrid Callistenics). Also, following Patty's warmup, I did some deep lunges with a raised leg. I can get to a deep squat if I support myself, but I can sense I'm nowhere near being able to hold my weight, balance and fold my legs without support. But good to see my ankles aren't stiff to the point of that being impossible. I didn't do reps, I just went down, held it for a little while, then got up slow and steady. It felt pretty good, I can feel my calves stretching. Finally, I sat on my folded legs for about 30 seconds like advised by Squat University and it felt pretty good, I think I can get used to this if I do a little bit every day. As for my drops and dips, I trained falling safely on a thick mat and tested some positions to get down and up as elegantly as possible. I think I'll do a lot of progress if I train every day, this might be promising! I stretched a lot afterwards and warmed up beforehand, but I feel like I might get sore tomorrow, we'll find out in Day 3 lol

This was very informative ..Well presented and explained 👌 . Great video thank you my brother 💪❤

An amazing channel! Really appreciate your uploads

Perfect timing, I’ve been having a lot of problems my ankles in the last few months, despite having walked barefoot and used barefoot shoes for the last two years. It’s probably something to do with my young puppy keep pulling in trying to deal with that . Keep up the great work . More people need to learn about going to be a foot shoes, or just going barefoot and not be a fashion victim .

Thank you for the guidance on increasing ankle mobility. Do these exercises differ with a high arch? I can almost get into the deep squat... Thank you for your help

Great exercises! I’m aware of these body handicaps, even though it took me a while to work on my “Asian squat” daily and incorporate it in my routine. Especially traveling long distances by plane or vehicles.

Oh yay, I love hearing a fellow South African YouTuber. Great video too. I need these mobility exercises.

Dude I needed this, messed up ankles from weight and years of jiu jitsu, great vid

love your videos.I am working on my ankles and trying to improve the hip mobility. Drives me crazy sometimes...you know, what i really love to strengthen my feet is to fall but not to fall in all directions..and play with my hands,creating torsion and twisting everything possible...trying to reach far, keeping roots on the ground! what do you think about it?

Yes to hip mobility video. I have both issues. Also please consider showing different variations for those who are no where near the flexibility level portrayed. Thanks

Please make a video with neurological effect from the feet/ankle to hip. If there are other parts of the body connected to the ankle area.

It's you and only you that inspired me to go barefoot shoes. Thanks Splay was my choice and our whole family wears them now. I refuse to pay 150$ for everyday shoes. Special use and work shoes, no problem But when my kids rather be shoe less, they fit the bill. Cheers

Really learning alot from your videos so an video about hip mobility would be welcome. Im 51 years old and a powerlifter in the 80´s where Arnold was the Good. You can se that in my mobility today :)
