Peroneals Stretch
Seated with a band looped round the forefoot, the hands draw the foot toward the shin and turn the sole inward; the outside of the lower leg stretches.
How to do it
Setup
Seated on the floor, one leg long, a band looped round its forefoot, a handle in each hand.
Steps
- Draw the foot toward the shin with the band.
- Turn the sole slowly inward until the outside of the lower leg stretches.
- Hold and breathe, then ease off and switch legs.
Common mistakes
Yanking the band: the pull stays slow and light. Knee rolling out with the foot: keep the kneecap pointing up. Turning past a pinch at the ankle: back off to a stretch along the shin.
Breathing
Slow and even through the hold.
