Re: Is there anything like the wrist stretches for ankles?

Since I went to a dynamic mobility/muscle activation type of warm-up there has been no looking back.

I have made strides that were never possible with yoga or static stretching.

It is superior than a warm-up that is overly general like treadmill or jumping jacks as well.

Personally, I have incorporated foam rolling also and think it is indispensible, but I have never brought that into class.
