Introduction

Thanks for Your Purchase

We are very glad having you as customer, enjoy exercising and let us know how fast you are progressing! You made the right choice, Ankle Foot Exerciser has been designed to help everybody having stronger ankles and feet, procuring better posture, less injuries... no required skills, no equipment, anywhere, even in the water to have smoother sensations, before running to have a more responsive foot and a more efficient stride, after a long trek to release ankle's tension. Just 3 minutes to complete an exercise (when brushing your teeth!), no extra space required.

Unique design Ankle Foot Exerciser

Ankle Foot Exercise is a modular kit of 4 blocs. The device is so simple to use that it is now integrated into the ankle rehabilitation process by high-level athletes.

Packaged in a set of four colored squares, each plate is 4 inches long with a distinctive base to vary the type and level of exercise performed.

Black: Full stability: 2 full cylinders placed at the sides of the square.

Red and Blue: Medium instability: 2 half cylinders placed in the center of the square.

White: Full instability: a half ball shape placed in the center of the square.

Ankle Foot Exerciser is Life changing!

When it comes to precision therapeutic ankle and foot exercises, the ability to bias the weakest link and train specifically, this is what matters. When working out on the Ankle Foot Exerciser, results are exclusively targeted on ANKLE and FOOT.

1. Security: low amplitude prevent any risk of accident (ligaments cannot be damaged), the square touches the ground at the slightest imbalance
2. Low angular clearance allows to target specifically ankle and foot. This is such a difference with other devices with offer a big angular clearance that knee and hip have a predominant role in the attempt of stabilization
3. Angular ankle and foot displacement will limit the action of the sensory neurons located in the inner ear which are in control of the body balance, and the cerebellar system, which regulate coordination
4. Placed on 2 instable squares, it allows for each exercise, to dissociate the front foot from the back foot. This is the only way to target specific muscles of the ankle and the foot individually.

FOR STABILIZED ANKLES

The ankle, or the talocrural region, is the region where the foot and the leg meet. In motion, the foot orients obliquely from top to bottom, from inside to outside and from front to back around the transverse axis of the talocrural joint. It is not a pure movement at the level of the hindfoot, but rather a combination of two complex movements that cross the three anatomical planes of the body:

Eversion & Inversion

Eversion	Inversion
Combination of dorsal flexion, pronation and abduction	Combination of plantar flexion, supination and adduction

When working out on the Ankle Foot Exerciser, people report it is more difficult to find balance than on any balance board. Why? Because muscle soreness occurs specifically on the ankle's muscles. On other devices, muscular reaction is not the same, muscle soreness occurs on the whole low part of the body.

Targeting specifically on the ankle's muslces:

1. Increase lateral (adduction and abduction) range of motion
2. Improve the ankle's ability for pronation or supination by training specifically rotation muscles depending on whether you are pronator or supinator
3. Enhance a better dorsiflexion (dorsal flexion): ankle dorsiflexion restrictions can hinder performance and lead to dysfunctional movement patterns. Specific exercises based on back foot segments with the white square (half ball shape) will improve ankle dorsiflexion range of motion.

FOR STABILIZED FEET

Man owes a lot to the foot. This organ has no less than 26 bones, 16 joints, 107 ligaments and 20 intrinsic muscles that allowed him to acquire standing, which reoriented its skull, eyes and mouth. The maintenance of standing could not have been done without this slow adaptation. If the foot had not evolved to the appearance, it has today, we would still live in trees or caves.

It is estimated that 70 kilograms per square centimeter is the pressure exerted on the sole of the foot. When working out on the Ankle Foot Exerciser, dissociated training allows to muscle the back foot and soliciting at the same time the front foot moderately and vice versa.

Targeting specifically on front foot and back foot:

1. Reinforce foot muscular tonicity, hence dynamize the foot motion fluidity (on walking on running), and avoid all loss of energy
2. Reduce foot pain from plantar fasciitis, Achilles' tendonitis, heel, arch pain. Effective stretching increase range of motion and flexibility which relieve the muscular and articular pains
3. Allow to cushion in a better way the transmission of the top-down and bottom-up forces
4. Improve both elasticity on reception and rigidity on propulsion
5. Give a better balance to the whole body

RECOVERING FROM INJURY

Sprain of the external lateral ligament of the ankle is, without a doubt, the most common traumatic pathology. The sprain (infringement) of ankle, it is more than 24,000 cases per day in U.S.A.

During improper support, the stabilizing muscles of the ankle and foot are not strong enough to prevent excessive twisting of the ankle.

On a movement of plantar flexion, adduction, supination, stretching very strongly, the foot rocks inside, thus causing a tearing of the external lateral ligament. The foot goes into inversion, the spillers are stretched and do not contract fast enough to counter the lesion movement. The foot loses its ability to react. It therefore needs to:

• Rest, ice, ankle elevation
• Gently mobilize the joint (lymphatic drainage) to evacuate swelling, blood effusion
• Re-education to return to a normal range of motion despite the hours spent in the splint.

Ankle Foot Exercising leads to rapid recovery, the downtime after a sprain is greatly decreased.

1. Constitution of a solid scar thanks to the orientation of the fibers in the axis of the constraints, we speak of mechanization
2. Greater stimulation of the fibers (both nits and rapids) of spillers and inverters
3. Improvement of muscle typology with the development of fast fibers of type II
4. Improvement of reflex loops and thus allow a rapid and effective contraction
5. Optimum reinforcement of inverters that must be stronger than spillers to avoid sprained ankle
