Ankle Foot Exerciser® Ankle Strengthener for ankle sprain relief, Foot Strengthener for plantar fasciitis; Ankle mobility, Posture corrector, Proprioception

I've been going to physical therapy for foot and ankle problems and I've been working on a lot of intrinsic muscle strengthening and balance while there. Saw this and bought it. It's pretty sophisticated and has a lot of range for growth as you get better and for targeting different groups of muscles. I was a little confused with the instructions because when they show the blocks in some pictures it was rotated clockwise one half turn versus counterclockwise 1/2 turn, and yes there is a big difference when you stand on it. Also, the blue and the red block are exactly the same as far as I can tell. After trying it out a little bit, I took it to the physical therapist and she approved of my continuing to use it and to progress through the exercises as the preceding one became easier. She also picked out which specific ones she thought I should be working on first. Overall very happy with this, much more so than the other balance board type items that I already have. Plus it's very small profile, so easy to take with you to the gym or for traveling.

The pieces give you lots of options for foot and ankle strengthening exercises, and I prefer the functionality of this to the sets where the wooden pieces are attached to each other. It takes a long time to get through all the option if you do the recommended circuit in the book, so I break it up into 3 to 4 exercises per day. Great for travel. Recommend a hard non-wood surface (to prevent possible indentions in the wood) to get the most of your workout, but start on carpet and build up to hard surfaces if you need more stability during exercises. It made my lower leg ache quite a bit when I first started, but that went away after a week or so. My balance does appear to be increasing, but it has only been a month, so I'll update later about how well it worked after a 3 to 4 months

The product is lovely and helps you build strength and support for various areas of your feet and ankles. My issue: it comes with a booklet and not a poster. I'm constantly flipping pages to see what is next and I don't workout near a counter to place it on. I wanted a poster on my home gym wall. I'm a graphic designer and I was going to make one. Then I thought maybe they sold one I could buy for like $5-$7. Well, they sell one. For $17.99 you can buy a poster with all the variations of the squares to go with your $19.99 product. That's terrible, CELAFORME.

I really recommend these blocks for people with foot issues. I've been doing the exercises, and I've noticed I feel better when I do them consistently. I haven't got through all the exercises yet, but I believe that slowly but surely, I will notice even more of a difference. When I do the warmups beforehand (as recommended in the instruction manual), it seems to make the exercises easier, and it also enables me to do the exercises without pain. The manual is very thorough, and you can tell it was written by a very knowledgeable person. I had an issue with one of the blocks cracking after a time, but it was still under warranty, and thankfully the seller resolved the issue courteously and promptly.

I just got this product love the design in theory unfortunately I have size 12.5 2E (wide) feet that don’t fit well on it, if anyone has any tricks how to use it for wide fit I’d love to know bc I can tell this is an other wise great product for arch building (which I need bc I had full Achilles reconstruction) so please lmk

These plates are very versatile and they do a great job developing and strengthen ankles, feet, and balance. I have used them daily since I bought them (every time I brush my teeth for an added challenge and to help cement the use of them in my daily routine). As an avid trail runner I feel these have helped me avoid any feet or ankle issues as I'm almost to 2,000 miles ran or rucked on the year. I love the multiple base options to choose from and the progression aspect they provide.

At first I thought it was too easy to stand on them, and that it wouldn't help much. But after balancing on the easiest first two settongs for only 10 breaths, I could feel that I had worked muscles that I don't usually use. The manual that comes with them is very informative and detailed, but also brief and accessible. I anticipate great increases in strength, balance, and agility from short daily sessions.

I am a certified Pilates teacher & movement specialist. I use this product for ALL my clients. People often forget the importance of toes, feet & ankle health. Multiple joint issues arise from misalignment of the feet & ankles. Neglecting your body's foundation of support, balance and shock absorption can lead to injuries and pain as you age. Using this product on my clients produced tremendous results. Immediately after use, client fill as sense of 'groundness', feeling that their weight is evenly distributed on their feet. Flat footed clients are starting to show lifting on their medial arches. Ankles are aligning and showing decreased rolling inward or outward. I see more stability performing exercises utilizing their legs in different planes of motion, improved balance during unilateral leg movements and better alignment of knees and hips.
