]]> Foam rolling is one of the self-massage techniques people can’t stop raving about, and it’s not difficult to see why. It’s cheap, it’s easy, it’s fun – and it will make you feel as good as new after a workout. Here are a few health benefits you should keep in mind in case you haven’t tried it yet.

Improved Movements

Turns out stretching isn’t the only way to decrease muscle tightness and improve flexibility before your workout. Foam rolling can have a pretty much same effect and lead to an improved range of motion. Stretching and loosening your muscles by using a roller can also increase blood flow and lead to better circulation.

Of je moet foam rollen? Nou, dat moet absoluut niet. Tenzij je een mobiliteitsbeperking hebt die je prestatie in de weg staat en wanneer deze verholpen kan worden d.m.v. foam rollen. Best specifiek toch? Daarom gaat het bij veel trainers mis met deze rol. Die laten Jan en alleman elke keer rollen om, eh, te rollen 🤔? • De foam roller is al veel wonderlijke kenmerken toegeschreven: het zou "spierknopen" weghalen, bindweefsel losmaken, je schoonouders laten verdwijnen en de Brexit voorkomen. En dat doet het eigenlijk allemaal niet. Wat het wél doet, daar is de wetenschap nog niet over uit. Een van de minder belichte, maar plausibele scenario's is de 'diffuse noxische inhibitoire controle', waarbij de pijn van het rollen ervoor zorgt dat de pijnsignalen die je mobiliteit in de weg staan minder worden. Maar zeker weten doen we dit nog niet. • Maar dát het werkt tegen bepaalde mobiliteitsproblemen, dat weten we wel. Tenminste, op kortetermijn wanneer je vlak vóór de oefening rolt. O, en tegen spierpijn kan deze ook een verlichtende werking hebben😎. • Rollen jullie eigenlijk? Mochten jullie minder willekeurig willen rollen en meer willen trainen: er is volgende maand weer plek voor online-coaching! DM voor vraagjes. Dan gaan we gezond de kerst in 🎅! Groeten 💪🏻✌🏻! • #strikeapose #foamroller #foamrolling #keeponrolling #fitdutchies #fitfamnl #fitdutchie #fitnl #fitgirlsnl #fitlife #gymtime #sportschool #mobilitymonday #fitspo #dutchfit #dutchfitness #personaltrainer #utrecht #fitnesslife #warmingup #mobility #fitanddutch

Injury Prevention

What a better way to treat an injury than preventing it from happening in the first place? Foam rolling will get you there by stopping many injuries associated with tightness and overuse right in their track, by decreasing the likelihood of an improper movement that may lead them.

Faster Recovery

This form of self-myofascial release can be pretty effective if you opt to perform it post-workout, as well. It will help your body get rid of waste products such as lactic acid, by bringing fresh blood and nutrients to your system. Foam rolling can also be good for your mental health, and help you reduce stress after hitting the gym.
