Join Ian Markow for our mini-course on the Ankle and Foot.
The mini-course consists of a practical where Ian takes you through programming and guides you through common sequences and series we use with our clients.
Feeling the details is crucial.
We want you to be able to take the concepts taught in the mini-course and directly apply them with your clients.
The Ankle and Foot Practical begins with important anatomy and biomechanics of the lower limb.
Next, we discuss the importance of getting the heel and midfoot to do their job to improve ankle dorsiflexion.
Additional lessons include videos, images, and a guide on how to assess the foot.
We answer common questions like “should you use bands when training the ankle and foot?”
A powerful tool in training your ankle and foot is to use blocks. In the mini-course, we go over all the positions you would use them for.
Who is the Ankle and Foot Practical for?
The target demographic is someone who works with humans such as physical therapists, personal trainers, strength coaches, osteopaths, and chiropractors. While you can apply the concepts and training on your own, Ian speaks specifically to someone who is working with clients.
As an introduction to training the ankle and foot, try this simple and effective routine. This video focuses on training your single-leg stability and feet.
Start off with the ground that is flat and stable. A tennis ball is a great tool to give feedback to the foot. To progress things, we use a Strongtek Slant Board and Pro Source Exercise Balance Pad.
