Resistance Band Sitting Floor Ankle Dorsi Flexion

Sitting tall with both legs long and a band looped over both feet from a low anchor ahead, pull the toes back toward the shins against it.

How to do it

Setup

Seated upright, legs straight together, hands on the thighs, a loop band from a post in front around the tops of both feet.

Steps

Pull both feet up toward the shins against the band.
Hold the top for a beat.
Let the band draw the feet back slowly.

Common mistakes

Band slack at the start: shift back until it pulls. Knees bending to help: keep the legs long; only the ankles move. Letting the feet snap forward: return them slowly.

Breathing

Exhale pulling the toes back, inhale returning.
