Try this quick tip to immediately increase & improve flexibility and range of motion in the ankle, achilles, and calf.

PNF stretching can work on other muscle groups as well! Remember to be very careful when starting out, this is an advanced stretching technique. 

1. Contract the target muscle while simultaneously resisting it.
2. Hold for 5 seconds.
3. Stop contracting the muscle, and begin to slowly pull the muscle into a full static-stretch. 
4. Take a minute break between each "rep"

Don't do too much at once! Maybe 5 "reps" per muscle group (if necessary).
