My 4 year old was having similar issues, I got her on a low dose steroid and started making her eat two cans of tuna a day. During the first can she had to do lunges around the backyard and the second calf raises. Add in a little ankle flexibility work and finally a tied a 8 pound weight around her head to make sure shes looking down and leaning forward over the ball when she would kick.

She's 5 now and has probably the 2nd or 3rd strongest leg on her team.




Rare gems like these are why I come to TigerDroppings.
