Wiggling your toes for fitness
16 Jun 2020 por Ted Escobedo 2 minuto de lectura
Longevity and fitness begin from the bottom up – literally. One of the most important areas of our body that we overlook when exercising is our toes. Keeping your feet strong and flexible can help reduce foot and ankle pain, reduce muscle soreness, improve your overall foot health, and help keep you active. There are a variety of types of exercises for your toes; each with a special benefit.
Exercises that improve range of motion and help limber up your feet may reduce your chance of getting hurt. Slow and gentle stretches will improve your flexibility. Strength exercises will allow your muscles to provide better support and protection for your foot as a whole.
Here are a couple to get you started:
1. Toe raise, point, and curl
This three-part exercise will start to get your toes and feet moving.
2. Toe splay
This movement will help you gain control over your toe muscles.
