Stretching
15 minutes of each training session
Stand with your arms resting against a wall and your working leg stretched out behind you so that you feel a stretch in your calf muscle. Slowly bend the knee of your working leg so that you feel an increasing stretch in your calf muscle. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds. Repeat the exercise on the other leg.
Attach an exercise band to a sturdy chair leg. Sit on the floor with your leg stretched out, with the outside of your foot against the chair leg. Place the exercise band around the front of your foot (on the inside). Slowly turn your foot inwards towards your other foot so that the band tightens. Hold the tension for a few seconds and move slowly the foot back to the starting position. Do not rotate the knee.
Stand on your left leg. Bend your right knee and grasp the little toe side of your right foot with your left hand. Slowly pull upwards so that the ankle is stretched as far as possible and the heel moves towards your buttock, bringing the foot behind your good leg so that you feel a gradual stretch along the outside of your shin. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds. Repeat the exercise, alternating between your right and left legs.
Stand with a small spiked ball under your foot and roll it around under the sole of your foot whilst pressing your foot against the ball.
Sit on a chair and place the ankle of your injured leg over the opposite knee. Hold the ankle with one hand, whilst using the other hand to slowly bend your toes upwards (you may feel a stretch under your foot). Hold the stretch for at least 10 seconds. Then bend your toes downwards as far as possible and hold the stretch for 10 seconds.
Stand upright. Stretch your ankle and touch your toes to the floor so that they bend backwards as much as possible. Hold the position for 10 seconds. Then put your toes on the floor so that they bend forwards as much as possible. Hold the position for 10 seconds.
