Link doesn’t seem to be the same one from review

Good advice! My chiropractor (trusted one, lol) improved my technique even though I wasn’t applying pressure on the downward pass. Pressure is to be applied on the upward stroke/pass toward the heart. Thx!

this advice should be in bold, highlighted and underlined. Thank you!

@MiekoNeko yes - just one direction ( towards the heart so avoiding possible damage to veins ).

now i am nervous about using mine. i need a visual i just have been rolling it upwards do i have to lift it up and start over.

@@acestarone Dont be nervous , sounds like u got it. Heres a playful visual for you - just imagine your stroking a pussy cat ...

They're just too awkward, these sticks really hit the spot

foam rollers are primarily designed for upper back and lats and it bands , its obvious it wont work on hams and arms and legs that efficiently bc of their thicknesses

I can only speak from experience here but I do and I find it helps. I tend to roll before any hard effort or race. I don't put quite as much torque behind it though as I do for post run 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Jon Zygon rolling pins are also a great shout dude!! I've broken a lot of them though 😁

No worries, these things are so effective and cost barely anything. One of the best purchases I ever made 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Hey man, you should do what you enjoy. If you you enjoy running and lifting - do both. If you prefer being as fast as you can on race day then probably best to stay away from the 5*5's. I would say do what you love dude, 5*5's is a great program and running brings so much joy - so do both if you want!!

Kalclash Fitness V do you have any tips/tricks from your powerlifting days with running, or keeping strong during your current triathlon training?

Hey man, glad to hear you're getting on well with the roller! They really are the best piece of running kit you can buy for the money!! 💪🏼

Laura Brett hi Laura, a golf ball, tennis ball and/or a refrigerated Coke can will do the trick 😊

Thanks! I will try these!

Pete A thanks mate, I'll film my stretching routine soon 💪🏻

Very interested in your stretching routine too

Take mine I never use it 😂😂🙈

Soak in Epsom salt bath in the tub. Use the roller before and after exertion, be it running, gym workout or sports. Only apply pressure on the upward pass in the direction of venous blood flow, which is toward the heart.

I use dry lube for bicycle chain....it works great and it doasnt melt plastic. I think wet lube is based on wax.

Oh dear... What did I do?

ringperm speak for yourself mate

Dominic of course. It is the only way I can. But don’t you think that it would be an improvement if the «chapter headlines» that appeared once every minute was toned down or removed in future videos? Don’t get me wrong, this was a good and useful video, I just found that aspect of it unneccesarry for such a short segment. Furthermore it sounded that the tune of it all was cut too abruptly and sounded slightly amateurish. That being said, I may be wrong or way off base. But I wanted to convey a bit of constructive critisism. Or at least I tried to. 😎

@MiekoNeko cats are evil

Don't worry about it dude, that thing's been asking for it
