Amazon Basics High-Density Foam Roller for Exercise and Recovery, 12 Inches, Black

this is basic roller, firm and solid. what more to you need. perfect length if you want to hit that spot between the shoulder blades. just be aware this is solid, there is no give in to this roller.

This little back roller is great. Nice, dense foam and travel sized but works well so I use it for home use as well.

Works great and is exactly what was suggested by a trainer. Reasonably priced. Rolling relieves my muscles from feeling tight.

The fiam roller they have at my gym is a long very soft one and I realized I didn't like it because it felt as though my body didn't have enough resistance against the foam.. Compared to the 1 I got here I really do enjoy the fact that it's smaller so I can fit in my gym bag and that it says Amazon basics, so people know I'm not stealing it from the gym. I really enjoy the stiffness for my glutes in my legs because i Primarily do cardio in my workouts. The downside is due to the size and stiffness its way too hard to work my back on it and I personally would prefer a medium stiffness for that location. Definitely a new gym bag staple! For reference on stiffness i included a photo of me gripping it tightly.

The roller is very comfortable, firm but at the same time pleasant, which gives me security during the exercises. It has helped me a lot to improve knee flexion and to perform my therapies more effectively. I totally recommend it for people who are in the process of physical therapy or recovery.

This is my travel one. These back rollers have helped so much with my back. I set it horizontally and kay that way on it and all the kinks get worked out as I roll. Snap, crackle, pop away myself to relief of pain!!!!!

Good product, just its size is bit small and it will be nice if it is longer to cover more parts of the body.

The warmup room at my gym only has one foam roller. I bought this one so I wouldn't have to wait. BONUS: It happens to fit perfectly in my dance shoe bag.

I've had this for a little under 24 hrs. Normally I don't review anything in the first month or so because of wear tests etc. But this product has already changed my life!! I'm a 24 yr old student with genetically 'short muscles' and the best study neck, anterior pelvic tilt and inflexibility you have seen. Osteopaths, physiotherapists and massage therapists LOVE me. I've had severe back issues for the better part of 10 years and recently I had a rib go out of alignment from tight muscles due to stress and study. After much more stretching and some osteopathic treatment, I decided that my fear of the "hurt so good" reviews and horror stories from my friends, I'd give a cheap foam roller a try. After a few pinterest deep-dives and youtube tutorials, I started easy but on my problem areas. I did my thoracic/upper back and started on a bed to give my a bit more 'give' until I knew I could handle the pain. I love the smoother texture, especially as a beginner, but I carefully rolled over my upper back and the release was almost immediate. Next I did my thighs (have to admit, touch more painful) and my calves, each individually due to the length. Lets give this a quick breakdown: PROs - simple and cheap for beginners - not textured but does the job (not going from 0 - 100) - foam does have a bit more give than the PVC hollow ones - small enough to isolate particular muscles/limbs so you can support yourself with the rest of your body. - releases muscle tension while providing support CONs - the length, in my view is a pro and con. I can do my entire shoulder area in one swoop, but instead I can focus on niche areas. Overall, I LOVE this roller. I've been studying/procrastinating all day and got up to my hip-flexors having a mild freak out (super tense). 2 minutes on the roller releasing my iliopsoas and thoracic muscles and I'm good to go! PSA - If you're considering a foam roller, I would definitely make sure you can hold your own body weight in a plank for 10-15 sec, even just on your knees. When doing leg work, you really do need your arm supporting your upper body. I have a high pain threshold, and I would put this as probably a 3-5/10. You can definitely feel it but you can adjust how much weight you're putting on there and therefore can reduce it if its too much. Hope this helps!

While it is a bit short it is suitable for everyday use. Easy to store.

Good support. Not too large.

Does the job well enough!

Trifft wahrscheinlich auch auf andere Rollen zu. Aber seitdem ich mich fast täglich drunter lege, hab ich fast keine Rückenbeschwerden mehr. Hätte ich viel früher kaufen sollen.
