You need to maintain your muscles, tendons and ligaments so you can perform your best. Foam rolling is a self-myofascial release (SMR) technique.
It can help relieve muscle tightness, soreness, and inflammation, and increase your joint range of motion. Foam rolling can be an effective tool to add to your warm-up or cooldown, before and after exercise.
By applying pressure to pin pointed spots on muscles, tendons and ligaments, foam rolling can loosen tight soft tissue and can improve blood flow. This stimulates your muscles for optimal recovery and performance and gives your bones a better support system
