Product Description
The Gymstick Foam roller is a perfect tool to stabilize your core, develop the balance of your lower body and improve your stamina. The core of your body is essential for overall fitness and a strong core offers many benefits. One major advantage is that it prevents back problems. You can also use the Gymstick Foam roller for stretching and mobility exercises for your joints and spine.
Three exercises are shown on the packaging of the foam roller. The foam roller comes with a QR code giving you access to training videos.
The foam roller is part of the self-myofascial release technique and is becoming increasingly known in the Netherlands. The foam roller removes trigger points (knots and adhesions) in the muscles, greatly improving the body's flexibility and mobility. Using the foam roller will ensure better posture, improved performance, less stiff blood vessels, and a much lower risk of injury. Use the foam roller during warm-up and cool-down to help muscle recovery and prevent delayed onset muscle soreness. This contributes to better muscle development. You can use the foam roller when training muscles in the upper and lower back, thighs (front and sides), calves, and hips. The Gymstick foam roller with training videos is available in 45 and 90 cm.
For many athletes, there is no need to purchase the long 90 cm foam roller, as 45 cm is sufficient for those who mainly want to use the foam roller for the lower body. The use of the foam roller for the lower body (legs) has recently become especially popular among runners and other athletes. If you also regularly want to use the roller for the upper body, we recommend the 90 cm.
We also often see the 90 cm foam roller used for Pilates exercises. Gymstick is a quality brand from Finland. The fitness products are developed by personal trainers and therefore a lot of attention has been paid to the quality, user-friendliness, and effectiveness of the fitness products. Simple and effective!
