This invention relates to an elastic resistance training apparatus for the performance of ankle plantar flexor exercises, dorsi flexor exercises, ankle inverter exercises, or ankle everter exercises by a user. Previously, the inadvertent sliding and movement of exercise devices during use limited their effectiveness. Embodiments of the present invention use an elastic cord (20) with a first end and second end forming a primary loop (12) at each end. The primary loop is configured to engage the dorsum and plantar surfaces of a user's foot. An auxiliary loop (14) is connected to primary loop and configured to engage the user's calcaneus bone when the primary loop engages the dorsum and plantar surfaces of the user's foot centering the apparatus at the talocrural joint to enable the user to perform talocrural joint movements without the apparatus disengaging from the user's foot during resistance exercises. |
