| The use of the powerband for resistance helps to push the tibia forward on the talusm helping the glide of the ankle into dorsiflexion, increasing that range of movement which is needed for normal movement such as walking and running. |

Attach your power band to a low down object such as a pole or table leg and put around the ankle you want to stretch. Put the foot with the band in front and step the opposite one back. Start with front of the foot on a low step and slowly bend the front knee, leaning forward into a lunge position. Push forward with the back foot and pull forward with yuor hands. |
