Sore Muscles after workout?
If you are exercising or playing tennis several times a week for over an hour, many times you'll have tight muscles and/or soreness (calves, quads, back are common areas). With a foam roller, right after a workout while your muscles are still warm, simply use your own body weight to facilitate what is called "Myofascia Release" or loosen the soft tissue that have gotten sore or stiff.

Foam Roller Benefits
I just recently discovered this amazing new product that helped me so much after a long workout session. It offers most of the same benefits as a Sports Massage but in the convenience of your own home. Most massages will cost $40-50 per session and you usually have to schedule an appointment ahead of time.
