So I have really been wanting to attend the SFB course. The one thing that has stopped my is my absolutely horrid ankle mobility. I had a lot of ankle sprains when I was younger and grew up in shoes all the time and as a result I have really poor ankle mobility. Worse than the normal person. This has led me to never even being close to doing a pistol. I can do it assisted with a TRX or band and I can do a very poor one wearing Olympic lifting shoes but in only one leg. I really want to attend but also be able to participate and get something out of the pistol section. I have done the standard ankle mobility drills but none of them have ever made a dent no matter how often I do them.
I was hoping there are others that have experienced something similar themselves or worked with someone similar. I am not sure exactly how to progress to be able to get to the point where I can do a legit barefoot pistol. Hopefully there is someone that would be able to be able to provide some advice or dills.
My goal is to attend SFB in June and be able to participate and learn how to do the pistol better.
Any advice is much appreciated in advance.
