    if you foam roll the lower back make sure you u have enough upper body strength to stabilize the rolling motion. Lower back rolling is only beneficial if you have lower back muscle to roll out. Im 27 and been experiencing a bulging disc since 18 years old and once i learned/ discovered full body foam rolling its been a game changer for even that lowet back muscle development. Been foam rolling seriously since i was 21 years old and will never stop.

Luckily, my boyfriend owns a foam roller and started with me opening up my IT Band which is so painful on my right side as well as watching your video three times to open up my hamstrings and hip abductors. You both exude such warmth, fun and alot of great information - thank you!!!!

      Don't foam roll your IT Band, look up AthleanX or Jeff Cavalier, he'll explain why you shouldn't foam roll it and what to do instead. There is a reason these guys skipped the IT Band, instead rolled right above, I hope this helps.

  • @BlaineDP

    Love the opening quote. I foam roll with the hard black 36" roller nearly every day before bed time or if I tweak something during the day. I am 43 years old, 6' 1" and do lift weights and try to stay somewhat athletically active. I started using it after pulling a hamstring to aid in healing. Everyone needs to understand that using the hard black roller feels like you're rolling on concrete for the first month. The first few times can be a bit painful...but for the 1st month or more wear a thick sweatshirt, or 2 sweatshirts ect..to help pad it more. BUT after a month or so your whole body starts to get used to it, loosen up more ect..and you get so you don't need as much padding and eventually you get to the point where you don't need to use any padding and just wear a t-shirt or even no shirt. It takes a little while to get to that point but it just shows how much your body changes going from it feeling like torture to the point where you sleep better after you roll in the evening. My experience has been to roll as close to bed time as possible, drink some water just before or just after rolling and it's like getting a full body massage before going to bed. I spend 5-10 minutes rolling 5-6 nights a week before I go to bed and it makes a HUGE positive difference. I've read where you're supposed to roll with the most pressure pushing fluid "towards the heart"..but I haven't noticed much difference between just using equal pressure in each direction and trying to use more pressure while rolling "towards the heart". Also, rolling is a bit of a work out.. you are manipulating your body around and at times you're kind of in a planking type position so at times it isn't easy to do and requires some effort. But if anyone is wondering: Rolling is SOOOO worth it! I recommend it to everyone. Of course if you're having lots of pain issues this is just one tool..you may need to work on flexibility, strengthening muscles for stabilization, muscle imbalances, see a doctor, see a chiropractor, see a PT, may have an old injury you need to finally deal with ect.. so don't think that rolling is a fix all for everything..but if done properly it can help alleviate A LOT of pain over your whole body.. :)

      @motorcitykitty700 6 років тому +2

      Great, encouraging post BlaineDP! And thank you for the sweatshirt-first recommendation. I have a very stiff foam roller with groves in it and sometimes it gets really intense. I like it, but at the same time (and as a new foam-rolling person) can only take so much. I'd love to keep working up to more, and I think your tip will help me do just that!

    • @BlaineDP
      @BlaineDP 6 років тому

      Cool..glad I've inspired someone! I've never used one with grooves in it..but I can see how that would/could change the overall feel/function of a roller. I'm sure there are reasons why some have grooves in it but IMO, I'd just go with a solid 6 inch round roller without bumps, grooves, any kind of pattern in it. I even have an 18 inch smaller one I take with me when I travel.

  • @motorcitykitty700
    @motorcitykitty700 6 років тому

    This was great. I just bought a foam roller at Costco last weekend. I bought it in the hopes it would help me relieve upper and lower back tension. THEN this video comes out and I see you can do so much more with a foam roller than I imagined, AND you're not supposed to use it on your lower back.
    I followed all the instructions in this video, spending a lot more time on my glutes and upper back. Man! I feel like I just got a full body massage (except for the fact I had to exert energy and therefore, I worked up some body heat). This video was very good and timely.
    QUESTION: B&B - what WRIST tips do you have for doing these exercises? I felt that some exercises really strained (hurt) my wrists.
    COMMENT: B&B, you have the Vikings and the Pack displayed very nicely, but what about the mighty Lions? Go with the top of the NFC North, baby! Or, the top after week two that is...😜

    I love rolling the lumbar lower back area. It gives me a nice stretch. I had a car accident 8 years ago and broke hip and pelvis in 3 places.
    When I get right down in my lower back it's such a relief.I even kle to rest my hips on the roller with the rest of my body on the ground

    I love foam rolling my lumbar! I've had hip issues for years and the best thing I've found is to put something right under my lower spine and relax over it. It really helps stretch out the back of my hips.
    Of course, I'm not the pro, so maybe it's not helping as much as I think it is haha

      Not good to foam roll your lumbar for a few reasons
      1) the mid back (thoracic) has the rib cage to protect and stabilize the spine so as to not cause hyper mobility to the vertebrae. Too much pressure on the vertebrae due to less stability
      2) most people have issues with kyphosis in the mid back, and lordosis in the low back. So a self administered myofacial release would be great to release that kyphotic nature of the mid / upper back. The low back predominately ( due to secondary curves ) has a tendency to become tight, meaning forward trunk flexion would be better for the lumbar region.
      It’s just safer to not foam roll the lumbar region, it’s best not to mess with that area when it comes to this type of release.

    I am interested in getting a roller. I have extreme tightness in my back due to back surgery years back. Have been to PT numerous times but just stopped and do need something to massage my back. I am confused on which one you recommended. I saw a couple that color but are different prices. Please help, tks

    Can foam rolling around the glutes inflame the sciatic nerve and cause sciatica?

    I just received one from by brother who is a runner and uses it every day. Bob & Brad did not say how long each roll should be.
    When is enough is enough?

    Would rolling your wrists and forearms help with carpal tunnel?
