Foam Roller

“mobility stuff. I do my, and that's something I always do. I always do my 90-90s, I always do my foam roller a little bit to roll out my back. I do the world's greatest stretch, I do, and it depends on what I'm doing that day.”

“can foam rolling help you work through, you know, a painful point. How do we do it? Like, what should I be doing? So let's start with that. Foam roller doesn't solve all the problems. If it solved all the problems, there'd be no problems. We've gotten that message, right? But you may need a smaller ball.”

“your quads on a roller and then contract and relax, that's a very sophisticated thing we're doing there. We're teaching your brain. It's safe to develop force in this position, but that's, that's really a sneaky version of an isometric again, right?”

“tissues that are really fibrotic and stiff. So anything we could do about that. So if we just played press and guess traps feel tight afterwards, like let's get you on a roller. Let's get you on a ball. Let's start working and see if we can restore motion to these segments. And then run our test again. Does it make us feel better? Then we could also ask, do you have full range of motion overhead?”

“watching TV. And maybe I did a little mobility work. I pulled out a roller and said, what's tight. Look at that day. It's pretty agnostic of exercise, but we put a lot of inputs into the body. And sometimes that's what we're doing.”

“which is really good. There are self tests in there. If you have a ball and a roller, we can really get you a long way in terms of making your body feel better at home. Um, and you know, way leads to way. There's so much. That's a, any one of those things, uh, are in there.”

“If you want manual massage, great cupping infinite ways to do it. But what you want to do again is not just compress the only thing traditional, like a foam roller or, um, any other self myofascial release. Generally people are smashing down.”
