Four reasons for thick ankles

① heel cilia length

The thickness of ankle is closely related to genes. The length of cilia directly determines the distribution and shape of calf muscles. If the cilia are short, some fat will accumulate on the calf, and the muscular ankle will be several times thicker.

② Body fat is too high.

Needless to say, if the body fat is too high, there will naturally be more fat accumulation in the calf.

③ Physical reasons

Long-term wrong walking posture and bad posture, such as knee hyperextension and pelvis leaning forward, lead to insufficient hip muscle strength and strong ankle joint.

④ Hormone level

Under the influence of hormones, women tend to accumulate fat in the lower body, so their calves and ankles are also prone to gain weight, and the probability of shorter heels and thicker ankles is much higher than that of men.

Slender ankle training before going to bed

① ankle strap stretching (group 5-8)

Lie flat on the bed, put your legs together and extend your instep to the wall. Press your instep down 90 degrees. Then turn clockwise+counterclockwise.

Helps to stretch the ligament at the ankle, enhance blood circulation and eliminate edema.

② Relax fascia and calf.

Wearing high heels on weekdays can massage the soles of your feet.

Step 1: It is best to roll back and forth on the fascia ball, with slight pain.

Step 2: Repeat the roller massage to make the blood circulation of the calf and ankle smoother.

Daily habit correction

1, unwilling to sit for a long time

Remember to walk for half an hour at work, or stand on tiptoe 100 times a day.

② Sit in the middle of the chair with your toes on the raised platform and your heels pressed down as far as possible.

③ Take the heel as the axis, rotate around the toes (counterclockwise) or move your feet straight up and down.

Step 2 refuse high heels

It's ok to wear it occasionally, which will cause great pressure on the calf in the long run. Because of the same force, the smaller the stress area, the greater the pressure. It is precisely because of this principle that the force acts on the calf through the ankle joint.

3. Walking posture

This is simply the most fundamental reason for many girls without ankles. The wrong walking posture will make your calf muscles compensate, thus making your eyelids thicker! The correct diagram of walking force is as follows
