There are so many benefits to this exercise, it’s hard to list them all. Aim for 20s-30s in each position on each foot, actively driving up, with very little weight on the stick. START SMALL & SLOW.
If you have foot, ankle, knee, hip or lower back problems this may be a good place to start. Our feet are our foundation, yet they’re so often overlooked as the starting point for good strength and activation through the entire body.
We focus first on other areas, but if you’re weak in the feet (very likely if you do BJJ as they can be underused or work on a soft mat) how can you expect everything else further up the chain to function properly?
This exercise will develop great foot and ankle strength, is great for balance, is great for activation of the lower core and teaching your body to work as one unit. ??? Check link in bio or link below for FREE breathing for BJJ program that’s been getting great reviews.
