    This is exactly why I've been religiously going to the gym 3 times a week for the last 5 years!

    I feel the diagram a little misleading. The best way to do this exercise is one leg at a time. Put the exercise band around a chair or table leg and stretch the band allowing the foot to invert. The foot then should be everted keeping the leg absolutly still. It is also important to keep you toes pointed away from you to isolate the peroneal muscle group.

    Er... any chance of a link to somewhere that explains it perhaps with images? This is almost as hard to understand as explaining how to make an origami crane without diagrams!
