Foam rolling in particular can feel uncomfortable, especially if you re extra tight or new to it. When you find a spot that feels tight, I encourage you to spend a few breaths gently massaging it. If direct pressure becomes too painful, back off and focus on the areas around trigger points instead. Foam rolling can be uncomfortable (you re directly putting pressure on sore muscles after all) but shouldn t be unbearable or painful. โบWhen should I do this routine? I recommend adding this to your daily routine. You can do it right after waking up or as a cool down for at home workouts! โบ๐คฐIs this workout Pregnancy-Friendly? With modifications.
