Ankle Stretch Using Rubber Band Mobility WOD

September 12, 2011 By Gregor Winter

Kelly Starrett on ankle mobility again.

Important stuff if you’re into doing Olympic lifts.

Tools: little box, rubber band, superfriend (optional)

Time: 2 minutes, 40-50 reps each foot (front and back)

Do the band distracted ankle stretch, with foot on the box and knee pointing outside. Have a friend control your foot placement and to keep it from collapsing in on itself.

If you do this on your own, just use something that else (like a small ball, or a small fractional plate) to put under your foot on to maintain that arch.

Check out more drills on Mobility 101.
