A quick test to see if you're Inside Ankle Bone High

Let's do a test to see if you're genuinely Inside Ankle Bone High on each leg! In this step-by-step guide, you'll learn how to assess your ankle strength and balance, which are essential for athletics and daily activities. And you could do this in the shower, so there are no excuses!

1. Stand on one leg and grab the other leg, pulling it as high as possible towards your chest. 2. Hold this position for a minute, and make sure to keep all your toes glued to the ground. Is it hard to keep all toes flush with the ground? 3. Check your Inside Ankle Bone (IAB) and see if it remains strong or collapses and goes low. 4. Observe if you can keep your head over your foot well, which indicates proper center of mass control, or if your balance is falling all over the place.

If you can't maintain a strong foot without collapse, you may need to exercise Strong Foot Training and construct a better shape. One tool that can help speed up the process is using slant boards, which have been shown to increase the effectiveness of exercises by 30%.

Remember, having strong IABH and balance on one leg is crucial for performing many physical activities. If you're struggling with these skills, don't hesitate to seek guidance from our coaches or comment below.
