Exercises for the lower leg

The lower leg contains the muscles that move the ankle and foot. They are therefore very important when walking. Lower-leg complaints usually result from a sports injury. Exercises to strengthen the leg are then the best way to get rid of the complaints.

You do this with exercises that make the muscles and tendons strong again. This also immediately reduces the chance that the complaints will return.
