THE FORGOTTEN MOVEMENT & MUSCLE



𝗔𝗻𝗸𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗳𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝗼𝗻 & 𝗧𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀 𝗔𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿

🏃‍♀️

Here’s a quick & simple exercise for the Tibialis Anterior.

I know this sounds fancy & exotic but it is a very important muscle to the side of our shin(Tibia) that is mainly responsible for pulling the toes towards the knee (dorsiflexion) & turning the foot inwards(eversion).

⚽️

If this muscle is not as strong as it needs to be it can cause things like shin splints-mainly in endurance athletes or sports that involve a lot of running, jumping, changing direction quickly etc.


Increased risk of rolled ankles, Achilles tendinitis, knees issues and more.

So probably a good idea to crack on with this exercise😀

🏃‍♂️

It can affect the way we walk because you may not be able to lift your foot high enough off the floor causing you to trip or fall.

😬

The altered walking technique can then cause problems in other areas such as the knee or hip.

🔢

Let’s talk numbers

  • 8 reps each leg. 2 sets.

  • After a few weeks progress to 3 sets

  • Then you will probably want to make it a bit harder by having a heavier band, moving further away etc.
