    Thank you for watching everyone! If you want more exercises that can help with this, I recommend watching my video here on ankle mobility: ruclips.net/video/JdT37Qo2wxk/видео.html - If you want more of a comprehensive approach, check out my Lower Limb Foundations program that is designed to help with issues exactly like this: www.conorharris.com/lower-limb-foundations

    Fantastic to see you explain what pronation actually is with details on the movements of the bones. Also for breaking the narrative that pronation is a bad thing and should be avoided. And for giving credit to the GOATs Gary Ward and David Grey :) What I commonly see in the last drill is toes gripping to avoid pronation entirely. People end up with hammertoes because their brain is doing anything to put on the brakes to avoid pronation.

    This is just what I needed. I've tried all the calves and soleus stretches, the mobilization with the band and weight and got no results even if i stick with it for weeks. Now implemened this and I'm shocked how quickly I get results.

    Holy shit..
    I tore my acl last year and was initially doing fine until some knee tracking issues appeared. I’ve been watching your videos on hip internal rotation; they were helping but this last bit for my ankle finally unlocked everything!
    Thank you so much 🙌😭

      Also I wish you a got recovery from your torn acl!

    Thank you for this video Conner. As someone with a limited dorsiflexion I can't appreciate it more. Due to the injury in my right ankle many years ago and no physio at all, my body compensated for many years, which led me to end with a rotated hip and scoliosis. I have been using a rubber band exercise to improve my dorsiflexion but your explanation makes so much more sense. None of the 'professionals' explains clearly how your foot actually works holistically. I have notice the difference in regard to the 'foot stretch' with the turn following your video. Makes so much sense. I can't thank you more. Thank you.

    Thank you very much. I’ve been working/struggling with this for almost two years with minimal improvement. When I do these exercises, I can feel that my feet don’t know how to reposition to avoid the pinch. For these exercises to lead to improvement, do I just repeat the motions lightly (as in teaching my body the movement), do I want to actually strengthen the muscle with repetitions, or should I do a static hold? It wasn’t clear from the video. Thanks.

    Hey , I do pass the ankle dorseflexion test which we do using the wall
    But I still have dorseflexion limitations for deep squating ,
    I noticed that my foot doesn't know how to collapse the arch
    Will doing these exercises help me get more dorseflexion even though I already pass the test ,I mean few more degrees of dorseflexion atleast

    Hi Conor, I want to ask you a question about your bio-mechanics course. It says registration is closed. But there is no info about your next course. Are you offering this course in the fall? How do I get info. I can't find any way to contact you on your website. 😢

    If I do the first exercise I can hear my ankles making some cracking sounds... Is that because of the tibial rotating?

  • @estetty

    I have no movement in the subtalar joint and have a limited dorsiflexion. My 5th metatarsal takes almost all the pressure when walking if I don't let my foot abduct which it wants to do because of all the movement restrictions. Are these exercises for me?

  • @petergrudzinski343
    @petergrudzinski343 4 дня назад

    Conor, when i added in the rotation at the hips, I feel more internal rotation of the tibia but it also leaves my knees with way more tension in than if i just move forward in motion with minimal rotation. I have very limited internal hip rotation as well. Any thoughts?

    Soooo doesn't this mean that all the Squat videos telling us to grip the ground with the toes are effectively telling us to limit ankle dorsiflexion??

    Amazing exercises!
    I am way more conscious about the feeling to pursue when try to go knee over toe.
    Still one problem...my tibia is constantly externally rotated and i have no tibial internal rotation.
    Is this something i should try to improve for a better ankle and knee movement? How could i do?

      Of course i am having problem with my Achilles tendon...
