Foam Rolling

Any good articles or resources on how-to for foam rolling? I'm interested in reading up on this and giving it a try, especially for my hamstrings.

LOL. I youtubed it. I do it for my hamstrings too. I looked up pictures and videos of how to do because I didn't want to look like an idiot in the gym. That's all my advice....lol

I have seen some folks at the gym using it and had no clue as to why. Needless to say I have yet to look it up and still do not know why its done lol

my crossfit just had a seminar on foam rolling and its helping my knee pain quite a bit. I just did a quick google search and found two sites that had similar moves to what we learned. Hope it helps!

that infographic is great.

don't expect it to feel great the first couple of times...you'll figure out how to control pressure.

hated mine at first, but now if someone tried to take it i'd spork them in the eyeball.
