high ankle sprain

[AlfredoM90]

hey I was doing some track running and I stepped into a divot and twisted my ankle. It is a bad high ankle sprain. I’ve had these before when I was younger and took a long time to heal, now that I am older I know it won’t be fun

any advice how I can weight train around this? Am I out for leg work?

you need to stay off the ankle as much as possible. it will take many weeks to heal

if you have ankle issues avoid legs just do yoga on them and stretch and really take it easy

do upper body and work your core hard

high ankle sprain is a tear of the soft tissues, it usually takes longer than a break to heal

Apply heat and cold(5min each) several times per day, do more stretching and work other parts of the body

Train the other leg.

Give proper rest to your leg....let it heal....

You just need to try and take as much time off to recover!

I would likely just take a break from lower body and only train upper.
