Fix Your Ankles For Better Grappling
Спорт
Have you ever hurt your ankle? Popped some ligaments but never did anything to fix it? BJJ folks are famous for not tapping to ankle locks which results in damage and ultimately some issues in life off the mats! JT and Joey explain how having a "dodgy" ankle can really mess up many other parts of your athletic ability - squatting, jumping and running. They then go deep on the exact steps you need to follow in order to rehab your stiff ankles and gradually build back strength and stability so you can confidence to grapple on your feet. There are surprise topics in this episode including the type of shoes you wear, how often are you bare foot and why Flip Flops are making your squat weaker.

Good stuff, guys! I'm hopping on one foot right now as I do the dishes.
1. Converse saved my toes from being crushed by a 45lb plate 2. Steel toes are not designed to cut your feet. Total myth. 3. Barefoot is amazing as much as possible! Great show
Realizing this was not posted in the middle of the night, but I am indeed on the opposite side of the planet
how r ya lads? love the podcast. suffered ligament injury in right ankle a couple years ago. i started to use castor oil for all the little niggles and injuries. give it a try. all the pain is gone. highly recommended.
Hey im a dumb 16 yo blue belt i currently have a broken fifth metatarsal left foot partially torn right mcl and an unknown left shoulder injury im in pt for the knee doing all the stuff but thats it what do i do now also thanks for the ankle vid theyve had issues even before bjj
I did ballet for a bit and it was the best thing for my grappling. Also ballet shoes are cheap
Hey mate, im curious what exercises you did to strengthen your acl when you went through the acl reconstruction. Also did you find a way to build your quads while recovering, i find it too much to hit weighted squats though im a year or two post injury

I am a US Physical Therapist. 1-2 years after ACL reconstruction is plenty past where you need to be particularly careful with your knee. If it hurts to do WEIGHTED squats but not unweighted, it’s a load tolerance issue. Solution: expose your knee to more load slowly over time. Zero pain is not the expectation, but definitely don’t push your knee so much you can’t do it again in 2 days. If it hurts to do all deep knee bending you need to expose yourself to that first until your knee can bend well without pain then increase the load. However, don’t do ZERO squatting in this time, just don’t expose yourself to HEAVILY increasing loads through new ranges of motion until your knee bend is comfortable. Then slowly expose yourself to increasing load through the range of motion If you are not making progress with 2-3 days a week of squatting after a month or two, see your surgeon

The steel toe boots thing is actually a myth and has been busted by mythbusters 🙂
