DAY 6 - FOAM ROLLER-ING

Okay, so the pain is subsiding a little!!
Its interesting actually as im using a brand new roller at home which is very dense whilst the one i use at the gym is a fair bit softer. I used to find the gym one painful, especially on the IT Band, but after completing nearly a week on the harder one at home (and getting deeper into the tissues because of it) the gym roller is now a walk in the park! Happy days.

Ive also found a really beneficial part to roll; the upper insertion of the rec fem, sartorius and TFL (basically the top of the thigh) immediately below the anterior hip bone. Hips feel a lot looser after five minutes in that area. And that point is kind of a nice pain! :)

Still following Kelly Starretts mobility WOD. Its a great blog and fair play to the guy for posting a video EVERY day! He knows his stuff.
