Jordan's Tip of the Week

The key to foam rolling is "slow and steady". To best utilize the foam roller, try to lay down on whatever muscle group you are targeting and roll from the top of the muscle to the bottom of the muscle in a slow and controlled fashion. By performing this slow, there is a greater chance to increase tissue extensibility. You should spend at least 1 minute on each muscle groups or 10-15 swipes. Performing 1 swipe is equivalent to rolling all the way down and up. If any tense areas or "trigger points" are found during foam rolling, you should pause and lay on trigger point for 30-60 seconds.
