Default Here's a quick question...

Why is it that when some people do a turning (roundhouse) kick that their feet are "floopy" and they end up not keeping their foot inline with the leg, thus kicking with the toes???

I think that it has something to do with the muscles in the front of the calf, and that FFS (floppy foot syndrome, lol) can be prevented with calf raisers (an exercise when you go up on tiptoes, and back down, strengthing the calf muscles.), but I was wondering if anyone else has seen this before, and has found ways to prevent it.
