Seriously, I’ve seen this linked so many times and I’ve tried it, but
I literally feel nothing when I lean over to work on an ankle.
So I got the band set up, I step inside and squat down. All good.
Now as I lean over onto one foot to work on my ankle, the moment I
start leaning forward all that happens is my heels comes up. I dont feel
any stretching or anything. Normally with calf or soleus stretching I have my weight helping me keep the ankle down so I can feel some type of stretch or change being made. But the moment I lean over here my heel just instantly comes off the ground.
Your heel should not come off the ground while you are doing this. If you still can not feel a stretch i would recommend foam rolling or voodoo flossing (or both) your lower calves and your ankles as you have some sort of stiffness buildup that is not allowing you to move your ankle as much as it should be moving.
Hey Cazzah,
