Technik-Tipps

Correct Position

Sit comfortably on a chair, keeping your back straight. Lift your foot off the ground. If you're standing, you can lift one foot off the ground by bending your knee. Make sure you're balanced and stable before you start the exercise to avoid falling or straining other muscles.

Controlled Movement

When you start rotating your ankle, make sure the movement is controlled and slow. Avoid quick or jerky movements as they can strain your ankle.

Rushing Through the Exercise

One common mistake is rushing through the exercise, which can lead to improper form and potential injury. Make sure to perform the circles slowly and deliberately.

Using the Whole Leg

Another common mistake is moving the whole leg instead of just the ankle
