Take hold of the big toe side of the foot and draw slowly upwards so that the ankle joint is stretched to the maximum and drawn slightly outwards so that increased stretching is experienced on the inside of the shin bone. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating.

Stretching is carried out in the following way: stretch the muscle group for 3-5 seconds. Relax for 3-5 seconds. The muscle group should subsequently be stretched for 20 seconds. The muscle is allowed to be tender, but must not hurt. Relax for 20 seconds, after which the procedure can be repeated.
The time consumed for stretching, coordination and strength training can be altered depending on the training opportunities available and individual requirements. |
