So what the heck is that you ask? I have attached a link to the manual that I use to explain it to my clients. Simply it is massaging your limb and torso in specific areas to remove sore spots and to activate muscles for more efficient workouts. Take a long look at the manual for better descriptions and instructions. I usually recommend that my clients at least massage the areas that are being worked on that day. For instance if today was a upper body day I would put the emphasis on the arms, shoulders, upper and lower back and the glutes. On lower body days or even before a run I would focus on the legs, glutes and lower back. Post work out myofascial release is excellent for helping the muscles get into repair and recovery mode. Again the manual goes into very concise details; the science behind it, rational, indications/contraindications, modalities and techniques. The author of the manual is Mike Robertson MS, CSCS of Indianapolis Training and Sports. A highly respected athletic training center in Indianapolis, IN. Check it out and give it a try. I have yet to meet a person who does not LOVE to do this once they have tried it and have seen the benefits of doing it. TRUST ME!
