Foam rolling: what it does and what it doesn't

Sep 4, 2026

A member lies back over a green foam roller with his arms stretched out

Foam rolling feels good and can make a stiff area feel freer for a while, which is a perfectly good reason to do it. It does not rearrange muscle, and it is not a substitute for sleep.

How we use it

Two minutes on whatever feels tight before a warm-up, and never as a reason to skip the warm-up itself.
