Pilates Tonic
Your feet work all day, but most of the muscles in them are asleep.
That matters more than you'd think. When your feet don't function well, your ankles compensate. Then your knees. Then your lower back. It's a chain reaction most people never trace back to the source.
This simple seated exercise wakes up the muscles in your soles and stabilizes your ankles—without any equipment. It looks like nothing, but the feeling is intense once you find those dormant muscles.
Give it a try!
