Trigger Point Therapy with the Foam Roller (Roller not included-Only book)) Paperback – June 7, 2022

This book is much more thorough than the video that came with my foam roller or the exercise guide that came with my knobbed roller. The book focuses on using rollers with small and large knobs. I've found two styles and two sizes of rollers to be the most useful, and to successfully complete the series I use one 12" smooth, one 12" knobbed and one 30" knobbed. It's taking some time to ease into the Rumble Roller which has large knobs. For me the intensity of exercises such as Iliotibial Band Release and the Piriformis Release require the smooth foam roller. The 30" roller is needed so you can lay down from head to tailbone on the roller to complete the awesome Shoulders & Hips Challenge. There are programs for different sports activities and well explained instructions and good visuals for exercises to reach every part of the body. I've only been doing the program for two weeks, three times per week, but I can tell I'm releasing a lot of tension and my breathing is fuller and deeper after each session.

Good and informative!!

I had forgotten that I bought this book. It is excellent. Previously, I ad bought a Idiot’s book and it had no pictures so it was useless. This book has a picture for every specific muscle group.

I did not receive the foam roller that was supposed to come with the book. I had to order another roller separately.

ok....I actually thought I was ordering the roller itself

I am new to foam rolling. This book introduced me to so many stretches & exercises. With the knowledge I gained from this book I now have incorporated foam rolling into all of my workouts & feel and perform so much better.

I tried using this on the back of my thighs while on the floor, and it was a little difficult, but the whole object of breaking down tight muscles is going to be great once I learn how to use it a little better. It was great for me to use while I stood against a wall and rolled the roller up and down my back. Tried doing my hamstrings while standing, but that was alittle hard too. Will just take some practice. Glad I have it, it will be great!!

No real new information in this guide. I felt most of what was written was common sense.
