quadriceps decreases biceps femoris activation. J Strength Cond Res 31 (8): 2238–2245 …

Context: Many athletes report that foam rollers help release tension in their muscles, thus
resulting in greater range of motion (ROM) when used before stretching. To date, no …

Background Foam rolling (FR) has been shown to alleviate some symptoms of exercise-
induced muscle damage and has been suggested to increase range of motion (ROM) …

Context: Foam rolling (FR) increases joint range of motion (RoM), but the optimal training
parameters are unknown. Objective: To investigate the effect of FR velocity on RoM and …

Musculoskeletal health benefits from flexibility training and maintaining a functional, or sport
specific, range of motion is important to one's overall fitness. Commercial foam rollers are …
