Hi, James. I watched a German physiotherapist explaining how to use a foam roller (see link below). I hope you don't mind me writing about this. According to him, there are 3 mistakes to avoid with a foam roller: 1) don't roll it in two directions! It is like 'sweeping dust back and forth'. The toxins should flow in one direction like the lymph fluid, not be spread more in the muscles. 2) Do the exercise just once or 2-3 times a week. If you do it more often, it doesn't have more effect. 3) Toll it very very slowly, never quickly because the liquid of the cells must be moved between them. There isn't much space. It's not like a motorway. If you move too quickly, the body tends to produce collagen which is not good for the muscles because it makes them more stiff. At 3:32 you see how the movement must be done: with pressure but extremely slowly. Finally: 4) the foam roller is too hard. It should give in a little bit so that it doesn't hurt the bones but makes a movement in the muscle possible, which resembles a wave. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lbymg9uA3dS1ZaM.html
