RumbleRoller - Extra Firm Textured Muscle Foam Roller Manipulates Soft Tissue Like A Massage Therapist (Black, Compact)

Life changing. Just got to be careful not to over use it in one sitting or I get a little sore.

I've been using this everyday for a full month and I really enjoy this item. I use it before bed and when I get up in the morning. I use this in conjunction with a good stretching routine and I would say it has cured my back issues.Normally I had to go get adjusted or get a massage once a month just to not feel pain all the time. I finally had had enough and decided to try and fix my back myself. I did this by getting this roller, stretching twice a day, and taking ice baths to help inflammation. Normally by now I'm having trouble walking due to a bulging disc in my lower back but I have yet to even notice any back pain and I haven't been to the chiro or massage therapist in over a month.Is this roller the sole reason I feel better? No, the stretching is necessary and definitely makes a difference. But it does help with muscle soreness and honestly feels like a deep tissue massage. I especially enjoy using this on my IT band, it hurts at first but I feel so much better after using this a few weeks. If my back continues this way, I may only have to go to the chiro but a couple times a year instead of every month.As for the product itself, I'm 100% happy with it. I don't think the full size would be worth the money and I'm glad I went with the harder of the two products, I don't feel like the softer blue roller would be worth the time.

If you are used to using a foam roller, the RumbleRoller is definitely not for the weak!It really gets deep into the muscles and stretches out where the other foam rollers can't get.I was expecting it to be similar size of our TriggerPoint roller but even with it being so compact, it works great!

I use this roller for my butt & legs because I have some nerve damage and this really gets in there deep when I put it on the floor and my weight is on it. It hurts- it’s a love hate relationship. In a good way.

This roller is outrageously dope. I use it before I go to sleep.For some reason, I always sleep incredibly deeply after using it. I think it is by far the most effective SMR tool I have encountered so far.It feels INFINITELY superior to conventional foam rollers – the kind made out of pure foam and nothing else.But it ALSO feels superior to the other, more modern kinds – the ones that are better than pure foam but don't have nubs like the Rumble Roller does.And there's something more, too. I really TRUST the Rumble Roller in a way that I just don't feel about any other foam roller. I know that it will always make my back feel better, for instance. It might not be easy or pleasant, but it will be effective.I really enjoy using the Rumble Roller. I'm glad I bought it. I highly recommend it.

Very painful, in a good way! This has been great for helping relieve tense muscles (also my neck, oddly enough). However, I bought this because I thought it could pop my back for me. It could not. I guess I am just too tense, but I still require a bro big enough to lift me (250lbs) in order to get that back relief.

I got this as my first foam roller and I adore it! However, I like incredibly deep trigger point therapy massages and to me that is the good kind of pain. There are also plenty of scaled down ways to use this; for example for the IT band you can put it against the wall vertically and lean on to it, rocking a little bit when you're ready to. I also wouldn't put your full weight on your leg muscles at first; just lie down and place it under your calf, quad etc and rest them on the sore spots when you find them. I use this for my back, my shoulders, my arms and my legs. Really got into knots in my forearms that I didn't even know I had! You can start rolling and putting more weight on it once those knots this gets to start to break up and you get used to it. I will be getting a GRID roller as well for more of the full muscle stretching aspect of foam rolling too, but this is an absolute must have. If you can't break up those knots then stretching doesn't do anywhere near as much good anyway. There are plenty of you tube videos on different ways to use this roller, including the scaled down exercises. Just take it easy to start and you will still reap mega benefits without the bruising. I love the portability of the smaller size and the fact that's it's not as unwieldy to use on arms, or vertical in the upper back to get into tough to reach spits, against the wall for my shoulders etc.; but I love this so much I'm going to invest in the large one too so I can get both legs and glutes together and save time.

If you prefer deep tissue massage that relentlessly prods at knots until they are tenderized and softened, this roller will be a Godsend for you. Genuinely lifechanging!
