No matter when you read this blog post on May 11, stop and ask yourself: how did I spend National Foam Rolling Day? If your answer is, “By foam rolling, of course!” Congratulations! You know how important a little bit of discomfort can be when it comes to releasing tight muscles and practicing excellent self care!
If your answer is “Why would I do such a thing?,” then we need to have a talk. Foam rolling is a great way to give yourself a little mini-massage — and one that doesn’t require driving anywhere. With a foam roller, you can really work out all of those achy and tight spots that you just can’t quite get to any other way.
We want everyone to celebrate National Foam Rolling Day with us! Our friends at Trigger Point Therapy have a site that can explains all of the whys, hows, and whens of foam rolling. And to get this party rockin’, TP Therapy is having a giveaway on their Facebook page!
Here’s what you need to do:
• Head on over to their Facebook Page.
• Let them know your favorite thing about rolling
• Include #
Now go get your roll on!

That video is AMAZING. I’ve been foam rolling for a few years, but this hit spots that I didn’t even know I was supposed to roll (um, shins?) Thanks for sharing!
I use the moves from this video on the regular. Thank you for this awesome resource!!
I’m the rare person who actually enjoys foam rolling! Thank you for the video!
Couldn’t agree more. Foam rolling is the ultimate muscle tension release method out there for everyday runners…I may be a bit strange but I actually enjoy the painful spots being rolled out just knowing that it’s making a big difference :)
