Perfect firmness & lengthJune 4, 2009 C. M. Ball(Portland, OR) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is the perfect foam roller. I recommend this over the shorter ones, you can do a lot more with it & you don't need to adjust your position like you do the ones half this size.
IT band problems? This'll help.August 9, 2009 Dave Dawson(San Diego, CA USA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
ITBS is absolutely no fun - and a real SOB to get rid of. This product will actually help, although the first few times you use it, you might think it's just plain torture and must have been part of the Marquis de Sade's arsenal.
There are videos on youTube showing this used, and the folks demonstrating either do not have ITBS or they have mastered the art of not showing pain. It'll range from uncomfortable to @#$!. Stick it out. It actually does help. Buy some Traumeel ointment too. Traumeel Ointment 100 Gm Tube This combination worked for me. I hope it works for you - there are no guarantees in life and everyone's body reacts differently.
As my dad used to say - "Free advice is worth exactly what you pay for it."
Great roller, great priceOctober 28, 2009 J. Beck(Philadelphia, PA United States) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I'm no expert on foam rolling (having only recently heard about it) but my chiropractor recommended it when I asked him about it. I don't have IT band problems but am always looking for useful (and inexpensive) techniques to increase my flexibility and enhance my P90X training regimen. My chiropractor loaned me one of his while I waited the week for this one to arrive (for which he says he paid more than twice the cost of this product) and honestly I like this one quite a bit better than his more expensive one. His seemed too hard for me personally but this one, while it's solid and holds its shape perfectly, seems to have just the right amount of give to make using it much more bearable. It really does seem to work - I feel nice & loose and relaxed afterwards, and it helps relieve low back tension in between my chiropractic adjustments. Excellent product, great price, highly recommended. (And I checked prices on Exertools' web site and Amazon is definitely the better value.)
Awsome product!April 20, 2009 R. Holwell(Sheridan, WY) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I work out and run regularly and since using this product the soreness in my IT band and TFI muscle have improved 90% or more. I noticed improvement imediatly.
Excellent Foam Roller ChoiceOctober 27, 2009 Ricardo(Eastern PA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I ordered the standard firmness (white-color) 36" x 6" round foam roller from Exertools through Amazon.com. It came quicker than expected using standard shipping. With shipping it cost 1/2 of what they cost at my local sporting good store and a Big Box retailer.
This roller is the right firmness for doing Iliotibial band stretching exercises. So far it is holding up well. If you aren't sharing the rooler with others or using it on a dirty floor then you probably don't need a slip-on fabric cover for the roller.
