    I often hear if the importance of hip mobility and see corrective exercises prescribed but what about ankle mobility.

    Has anyone any good articles, videos or recommendations to improve ankle mobility. I'm presuming general calf stretching anyway.

    The founder of Jump Stretch Inc goes on about ankles in relation to nba and keeping ankles healthy and injury free.

    Jump Stretch were one of the first into the bands.

    Not much there but a google might throw up a few videos.

    There's two examples here.

    I've used the first example often enough myself and I've seen others who've benefited from it. I'm not sure how much calf stretching helps. Personally my calfs can get fairly tight but I've no ankle mobility issues.

    There's a recent vid on mobilitywod at the moment where Starrett talks about poor ankle mobility leading to knee pain. It's worth a look too.
