Definitely loosens knots and tightness, for me at least.

[CJHan]

High pain tolerance from your guest my goodness those were savage blows with the roller.

[Coolhand]

Loving these shorts you've been doing, please keep it up! Very helpful and well put together quick info

[dannypacini]

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia music 😁

Nice, I've been foam rolling for a while now 2 or 3 times a week. Usually before squats and deadlifts. Feels good lol

[snaga]

What we really need answered is the sumo vs conventional deadlift debate. Separate facts from fiction from feelings (ego).

[darthveda]

Upper rolling my back def helped with my costochodritis. The ONLY thing that ended up helping

[Ricardo-kvtk]

One of the best things I’ve invested in

[dayytube]

Nice to see a funny video by squat University.
It really works and makes the show interesting with a little kick to it.🤭
Nice work SU.

[trickynik]

I don't know why, but this seems homoerotic 🏋️‍♂️

[sman]

Something very camp about this video but I love it!

[ritvikkumar]

The connection with Aaron and Graham Tuttle is beautiful

[uwzty]

What can I do when I have shoulder pain on my right shoulder when doing one arm dumbell Extension for triceps, like I can't go down bc it hurts
I happened to me while ago but stopped happening, and yesterday happened again

[theHUMANAUT]

Didn't even show popping your back with it...which is basically its main use

[Backwoodstails]

It can help with posture. I know a lady who is a massage therapist, and one of her clients that she suggeated foam rolling to, is getting a lot of improvement to her neck hump.

[AkshatSTREDGE]

In my experience its good for those who have extremely tight muscles and nasty trigger points.

[gageabdul]

Had that same exact foam roller.
Hated it lol

[brunonator]

Just a question here. If it decreases athletic performance, wouldn't it be better to do it after training?

[darrelfelonia]

can i still do it b4 and after ( 60s per muscle followed up by Static Strething ) training session ???

[EzekielDBarrett]

I've always found foam rollers oddly creepy
