Standing Foot Opener

Exercise Overview

This is a foot mobility and warm up drill to improve foot pronation and supination. While standing, simply rotate your entire body in one direction and appreciate the movement occurring at the feet. For example, when rotating to the right, you will feel the right foot supinate and the left foot pronate. When the foot supinates you may feel the intrinsic foot muscle contract, and when it pronates you will feel them stretch.
