Bunion Friendly Workout [Great for plantar fasciitis, bunions & weak ankles]
Bodyweight Only
•
46m
Total body workout, with a focus on strengthening the feet. Great for people with bunions, or plantar fasciitis, or if you need to work on your ankle strength.
Whether you have bunions or not anyone over the age of 40 needs to try this workout, and then from there, your feet will let you know whether or not you need to keep this workout in your regular rotation.
Unfortunately, age, poor footwear choices, and footwear in general can cause weaknesses in the muscles of the lower leg, as well as mobility issues.
This, in turn, can cause bunions, plantar fasciitis, and even knee, hip, or back pain.
This bodyweight workout focuses on strengthening those muscles while working on the mobility of the toe and ankle joints... while also hitting a ton of other muscles too.
Have fun and let me know what you thought of the ab finisher at the end 😀
