We’re starting with the foam rollers with the lower extenders and the calves. We’re going to start with both calves on the foam roller as we slowly progress up and down. I like this because it allows have equal pressure on both calves. And kinda get a two for one, however, takes a lot of stress to my arms. So I’m going to use one foot to decompress and help out my arms, so I can move through this. Now of course, there was a rolling progression to go up and down the entire cavity, back and forth. But there’s so much more that we can do, we can definitely externally rotate the foot and get more of the lateral aspect of the calf. internally rotate the foot and get more of the internal aspects of the calf is gonna be more kind of muscle knots in and around those those areas. Rather than just right on top. Find a spot. Like I said, you can laterally sift through it. If you feel kind of rubbing over a certain point. Stay on that point and then slowly massage it through memory, speed and rate is not the most important thing. You can move the foot as you allow that foam roll to compress the tissue and hydrated as you move through it. A major thing to focus in on is allow the body to move slowly stick on the points of interest and focus. They’re forcing you to switch sides and do the exact same thing.
