Sports reviews of PB Elite Molded Foam Roller 3' Long, 6" Round (Most Popular Size)

Customer Review: Why this is the right roller for you
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

OK here is the deal: If you are serious about getting past injuries, improving performance, and reducing further injuries then this is the foam roller for you. This roller has the appearance of hard cork-board on the exterior and the interior is VERY solid. At the same time is is lightweight and easy to handle.

Be warned, this is a very solid roller and WILL hurt when you roll over tight spots in your muscle. This means it is working. If you are serious about getting better though you can move past the pain and feel MUCH better afterward.

If you have severe tightness due to injuries you might want to start with a slightly softer roller such as this one:

and move up to the harder roller when you are ready. For everyone else however this is the roller for you and it will get the job done.

I have spent several years living in front of a computer and it was starting to take a toll on my posture and range of movement. My hips and legs were especially tight and it was causing problems all over my body. After using the roller just a couple times I am already feeling better during running and have much less pain.

I've found most of the videos on the internet are sufficient to instruct you on proper usage, however if you are completely lost or looking for more ways to use the roller for a workout or massage you can check out these videos:

Description of PB Elite Molded Foam Roller 3' Long, 6" Round (Most Popular Size)

A molded foam roller that does not contain cells making them last three times longer than traditional celled white foam rollers
Improve your balance, massage your muscles, and stretch your tight hamstrings all in one with the PB Elite molded foam roller. Unlike traditional celled foam rollers--which break down and flatten out over time--the PB Elite's molded form doesn't have cells, helping it last three times longer. More significantly, the roller helps your body in a number of ways, including improving your alignment and hip mobility, increasing your core flexibility, and assisting with myofascial release. Flexibility is an important part of achieving and maintaining a full range of motion around the joints. The PB Elite roller contributes by letting you gently challenge your back, hamstrings, hips, abs, and other body parts to improve your core strength and flexibility. The roller also helps with self-myofascial release by putting pressure on tender areas along the muscle tissue (myo refers to muscle, while fascia refers to the tissue that surrounds the muscle fibers). When applying pressure, the golgi tendon organs help trigger the relaxation of the muscle spindles, helping dissipate the adhesions, increase blood flow, and enhance overall movement. Some users also use foam rollers to practice their golf swing, or during yoga and Pilates sessions. The PB Elite roller measures 3 feet long and 6 inches round.
