Foam rolling (FR) is an easy-to-perform self-care activity to improve the range of motion in
patients with injuries. However, even if FR is performed at the same intensity, the feeling …

Background: Foam rolling (FR) has been widely used with the intent to increase range of
motion (ROM) before strength and power activities. At the moment, few studies have …

Introduction: Foam rolling (FR) has become a very popular modality to provide self-
myofascial release. FR is often used during the warm-up period or cool-down period and …

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) …

Over the last decade, acute increases in range of motion (ROM) in response to foam rolling
(FR) have been frequently reported. Compared to stretching, FR-induced ROM increases …

Foam rolling (FR) durations totaling≤ 60 s per muscle are reported to acutely increase
flexibility and vertical jump performance. However, limited research has investigated …

Foam rolling (FR) is a new and popular technique for increasing range of motion. While
there are a few studies that demonstrate increased performance measures after an acute …

Background A single foam-rolling exercise can acutely increase the range of motion (ROM)
of a joint. However, to date the adaptational effects of foam-rolling training over several …

A single bout of foam rolling (FR) can acutely increase joint range of motion (ROM) without
detrimental effects on subsequent muscle performance. Similarly, long-term FR training can …

Abstract Background Foam Rolling (FR) is currently used by athletes at all levels. It is not
known whether FR is more effective being used as a warm up to aid performance or more …
