Ankle taping is a common practice in Jiu-jitsu to prevent and support ankle injuries. It involves wrapping athletic tape around the ankle and foot in a specific pattern to provide stability and reduce the risk of sprains, strains, and other injuries.
Ankle injuries are common in Jiu-jitsu due to the high-impact nature of the sport and the frequent use of takedowns and grappling techniques. Taping the ankles can help to prevent these injuries by providing additional support and stability to the joint. It can also help to reduce pain and swelling if an injury does occur.
