Foam Rolling and Ball Work

This one is from the archives.  May 15th, 2012.  Still relevant now.

Soft tissue work at its most basic. This is a quick video that is going up to ensure that the dinos get the information they need so they can quit whining about being sore. If I get a chance I will get a full write up together for this series on stretching and foam rolling. This deserves some high quality video and some actual explanations on what it is that I am doing this for. For the time being, follow the carny. Look for sore and tender points and try and “iron” them out with a roller or a ball. I find that a hard ball works better than a soft one, though some give in it is essential. A lacrosse ball works quite well, and I am quite fond of super bouncy balls.
