Hey Reader,
Weβre kicking off Reset July with one of the most common issues I hear from women: foot pain, especially that stabbing feeling in the heel or arch when you step out of bed in the morning.
If that sounds like you, keep reading.
(And yesβall the tips below are available in video form on my YouTube channel for easy follow-along. π₯ Link below!)
π₯ Stretch & Strengthen:
- Calf Stretch against a wall β 2x30 seconds/side
β
β
- Massage your foot using a golf or massage ball
β
β
- Foam roll your calves to release tension
β
β
- Ankle mobility with a resistance band (I demo this in the video!)
β
β
π‘ These moves take less than 10 minutes and can make a huge difference in how you feel by the end of your day.
