A previous injury is one of the biggest risk factors for new injuries.Therefore, it is crucial to undergo good rehabilitation and implement injury prevention measures – to reduce risk and keep the body strong over time.
The Ankle Trainer is designed with resistance on the inside of the ankle. As you walk, the muscles on the outside of the ankle must actively work to bring the foot back to a more neutral position. The goal is not only to activate the muscles but also to stimulate joint proprioception and neuromuscular control around the ankle. Over time, this helps the ankle become better at registering and correcting the foot's position during movement.
If you have sprained your ankle once, the risk of doing it again is higher. Good rehabilitation is therefore important, but the challenge is that most people do not complete it. It is often not about the exercises being poor, but about the difficulty of fitting enough training into a busy daily life. Research shows that effective rehabilitation after an ankle sprain can require more than 900 minutes of training. That amounts to 15 hours – and for many, it is precisely the quantity and execution that becomes the problem. Ankle Trainer has been developed to make this easier in practice.
The Ankle Trainer is designed to integrate rehabilitation into everyday walking. Instead of having to set aside specific time for exercises, your ankle receives adjustable resistance that it must actively work against while you walk. This means you not only train the muscles around the ankle, but also proprioception and the body's ability to sense and correct the foot's position during movement. This makes rehabilitation easier to carry out over time – in situations you're already in, such as walking to work, shopping, or taking a stroll.
Measurements of muscle activity while walking with and without the Ankle Trainer showed increased activation in the fibularis longus and fibularis brevis when the product was in use.
The difference was most apparent during the swing phase – that is, in the part of the stride where the foot prepares to hit the ground. It is precisely in this phase that good control and pre-activation are important for better foot placement and to reduce the risk of the ankle ending up in a vulnerable position.
For you, this means that the Ankle Trainer doesn't just feel like exercise – it also provides measurable activation of the muscles around the ankle during walking. In the measurements, the difference in the swing phase was statistically significant, with p=0.002 for the fibularis longus and p=0.00005 for the fibularis brevis.
Ankle Trainer and Ankle Support are designed for two different needs – and many find both to be very useful. Ankle Trainer is Wear'N'Go's rehabilitation product for active ankle training. It is designed to stimulate muscles, joint proprioception, and neuromuscular control while you walk.
Ankle Support is developed for support, compression, comfort, and relief around the ankle. It is well-suited when you want more stability and security during activity, during periods of soreness, or when your ankle needs extra support.
Many therefore choose both: Ankle Trainer for active rehabilitation, and Ankle Support for stability, comfort, and relief when they are not using the Ankle Trainer.
“Every year many people get injured — but far too few do anything about it. This can lead to major problems later in life.
One of the biggest challenges with rehabilitation after an injury is that most people do not complete it, because the exercises are often perceived as time-consuming, difficult, and boring. With Wear’N’Go, we want to make recovery made simple. Whether you are starting rehabilitation after an ankle injury, want to prevent injuries, or need support products for activity — our goal is to help you stay healthy and active.”
Ankle Trainer is intended to be used for 10 minutes to 3 hours at a time. Start slowly and gradually increase as your ankle tolerates more.
Research shows that effective rehabilitation after a sprain often requires more than 900 minutes of total exercise.
Ankle Trainer has been developed to make it easier to reach that training volume in practice – by moving the training into regular walking.
The Ankle Trainer is designed for active ankle rehabilitation while you walk. It provides adjustable resistance that your ankle must actively work against with every step. This stimulates the muscles around the ankle, proprioception, and neuromuscular control.
The Ankle Trainer is a rehabilitation product for active ankle rehabilitation. An ankle brace is designed for support, compression, and relief. Many people choose the Ankle Trainer for rehabilitation and an ankle brace for stability and comfort otherwise.
The size corresponds to your shoe size. For example, if you wear a size 43 shoe, the recommendation is 43–44 for the Wear'N'Go Ankle Trainer.
If you are between two sizes, it is generally better to go down than up.
If you are unsure about which size fits best, we are happy to help you via chat, email, or phone.
