Single-Leg Balance Training for Foot Strength
Practice static single-leg stands, usually while looking at a fixed point on a wall for about 10–12 feet away, and make it harder by closing your eyes or shifting visual focus. Doing these drills barefoot can further challenge the foot and ankle, helping build ankle stability, intrinsic foot strength, and overall balance control.
