Ankle Sprains
Ankle sprains are the bane of many athletes. Ankle sprains happen frequently, but can be prevented with specific ankle and joint strengthening exercises. Lateral sprains are common and usually appear in the form of ankle sprains. Jumping rope and jumping jacks can improve footwork and will increase strength in the lateral muscles of the ankle. This strengthening will help prevent ankle sprains or help to lessen the severity of the sprain if one does occur.
