What's a Foam Roller?

What will a foam roller do for you? And how do you use a foam roller?

About a month ago we published an article titled, The Static Stretching Renaissance, which talked about the use of foam rollers. Since then, we've had so many questions from our subscribers asking; "What's a foam roller?" that I had to do a follow-up article about them.

I started to write the article, but I thought the best way to answer the question would be to show you. So below you'll find a couple of videos (that explain better than I can), exactly what a foam roller is and how to use them.
