How can you change tissue quality when you move so fast over the roll or ball? 180 degrees in contrast to the proven method of bodywork (rolfing, deep tissue, connective tissue, KMI, etc.). Also, Yamuna Body Rolling. Only go as fast/deep as the tissue allows, never forcing anything, like the hot knife cutting through butter analogy. They both can’t be right, eh?

Nice one Smitty!

I wrote an article on foam rolling basics (http://www.straighttothebar.com/2009/05/fix_your_body_with_a_foam_roll.html) but never thought to connect movements together using a med ball.
