Have you ever experienced ankle instability? If you are a runner, you most definitely have. However, you don't necessarily have to be a runner to experience it. It only takes a misstep to destabilize your ankle. This can also result in a sprain or injury. While these may be isolated events, chronic ankle instability can happen if you've experienced enough ankle sprains. Many athletes repeatedly sprain their ankles during exercise, but luckily there are ways you can prevent this, thus preventing chronic ankle instability as well.
Ankle sleeves support your lower legs by providing you with graduated compression that helps combat the effects of gravity on your lower legs, as well as help, deoxygenated blood flow back to the heart. Some studies have shown that blood flow increases up to 40% during exercise and up to 30% during recovery. This also helps speed up recovery and reduce muscle soreness. Additionally, the compression effect helps stabilize your muscles and reduce muscle vibration, in order to reduce fatigue.
