Why foam rolling? I think the “why” behind what we do is extremely important. Taking 10-15 minutes to foam roll before and/or after a workout has many benefits. It can help relieve muscle tightness, soreness, and inflammation, as well as increase your joint range of motion. Foam rolling promotes blood flow to the muscles and increases circulation. During this video I follow up the foam rolling with an "active stretch," not a "static stretch." This is important BEFORE a workout. If you are doing this video AFTER a workout, you may do a static (hold) stretch in place of the active.
