4 Way Ankle Theraband Exercises
Using elastic resistance bands for ankle strength can be a safe and effective way to optimize your ankle rehab and build overall ankle stability, especially after an injury like an ankle sprain, and over time this can also be useful to help prevent and relieve ankle pain. A Theraband is simply one type or brand of elastic resistance band. It’s a very common brand in physical therapy settings, and personally, I really like them because they offer a variety of strengths, the resistance is smooth throughout, and you can get different styles.

Build Ankle Rehab Into Your General Fitness
This doesn’t mean you have to do boring resistance band exercises forever, just that you need to keep your ankle in mind when you are participating in general workouts. General strategies include, but are not limited to: – Don’t skip leg day! – Maintain ankle range of motion by routinely stretching your calf muscles, which can help prevent the development of Achilles pain after an ankle sprain. – Routinely perform more general ankle exercises, for example, calf raises or single balance on an unstable surface. – Wearing an ankle sleeve or lace-up ankle brace during more high-impact activities.
