Foam Rolling can provide great benefits both before and after a workout. Foam rolling prior to a workout can help to decrease muscle density and allow for a better warm-up. Using a foam roller can provide similar benefits as deep-tissue massage. By increasing flexibility and decreasing muscle tension, it can help prevent injury and improve performance.
Foam rolling can also be an important tool to use while cooling down after exercise. If you add a foam roller to your warm-up and cooldown routine, you may find yourself feeling less sore in the days following. If you regularly sit or stand for your job, or just have aches and pains, foam rolling can also be useful.
Pilates, yoga, rehabilitation, and many other exercises can be enhanced with the addition of foam rollers. Use them to help develop balance, postural alignment, and flexibility or as support for dynamic strength exercises. Ideal for self-myofascial release and massage therapy.
