Will Harlow - HT Physio on Instagram: "A simple routine at the start of your day can improve blood flow and circulation for hours afterward.
As we get older, circulation often slows, especially in the legs. That’s why ankles feel stiff in the morning, feet feel cold, and walking takes longer to feel “easy.”
The fix doesn’t need to be long or intense. Just a few targeted movements to wake up the muscles that pump blood back toward the heart.
Try this every morning:
🟢 10 ankle pumps
🟢 10 seated calf raises
🟢 10 standing calf raises
🟢 10 squats
It takes 2–3 minutes. No equipment. No sweating.
This routine helps:
✔ Improve lower-leg circulation
✔ Reduce morning stiffness
✔ Make walking feel lighter throughout the day
🔖 Save this reel and try it tomorrow morning. Your body works better when circulation comes first.
