Bosu Walk Around Toe Up/Toe Down



Tight joints, including our ankles, affect movement patterns that can cause compensation overload leading to injury.  Tight ankles can affect literally everything in your body.  That sore right elbow, caused by a tight left hip that was caused by a tight left ankle.   You can see where we are going here with the connect the dots of etiology of a problem.  Keeping things in their ideal state prevents these out of control compensation patterns from occurring.   This exercise is aimed to wake up the balance proprioceptors while stabilizing the ankle joint in plantarflexion and dorsiflexion.   Check out the video and comment with any questions or requests for future videos!
