Seated Ankle Stretch

Expert Advice

Keep your back straight and lean forward from the hips to increase the stretch without rounding your back.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Sit on the floor with one leg extended straight in front of you.
  2. Bend the other leg so the foot is flat on the floor.
  3. Reach forward and gently pull the toes of the extended leg towards you.
  4. Hold the stretch for 20-30 seconds, feeling a stretch in the calf of the extended leg.
  5. Release and repeat on the other side.
