The post When Should You Use a Foam Roller? appeared first on yourdailysportfix.com.
]]>If you want to use a foam roller to improve your range of motion with your muscles for your workout, it’s a good idea to use it before your workout. It’s important to note, however, that you should always warm up before you use a foam roller. Using a foam roller on cold or static muscles could lead to injury or pain.
The most popular use for foam rollers is definitely after a workout. When your muscles are totally exhausted and swollen from your workout, rolling them can help prevent the cramping and soreness later on. It’s recommended to use a foam roller right after your workout on the muscle groups used. Do this before your cool-down stretch to get the best results.

]]>In general, it’s okay to work out if the soreness you’re experiencing is mild. Working out increases blood flow, which can help speed up recovery and bring some relief to the affected area.
If you’re feeling sore to the point that it’s uncomfortable to walk, it’s best to take a break and give your muscles time to recover. Overusing a set of muscles can increase the risk of injury that would ultimately require taking a longer time off.
Help your muscles feel better quickly by playing an active role in recovery. Get a massage or use a foam roller to relieve soreness or relax in a warm bath with some Epsom salts. You can also try gentle, low-impact exercises like yoga and stretching to encourage circulation without stressing your muscles further.

]]>The truth is that most of the DOMS tips out there like taking Epsom salt baths or icing your muscles may provide some temporary relief, but they aren’t actually going to make your DOMS go away any faster. Nothing is going to end your DOMS other than time, so just be prepared for it to take between 1 and 5 days until your DOMS is gone all the way.
If you’re used to a workout regimen that has you in the gym multiple times a week, you might find yourself in the situation in which you have DOMS but are supposed to work out those same muscles again. Pro tip: don’t do it. It’s only going to make the DOMS worse. Your muscles need time to properly recover before you put them through the wringer once more.
That being said, being totally sedentary isn’t going to help either. Getting your blood flowing can help your DOMS hurt a lot less, so at least try to get up and walk around a little bit every so often while you’re recovering.
