High-Density Foam Roller

A firm, high-density roller for working through tight calves, quads, glutes and upper back — a popular pick for at-home muscle recovery and myofascial release, and for loosening up before a session.

Key specifications

• Dimensions: approx. 33 cm long x 14 cm diameter
• Material: high-density EVA foam over a hollow rigid ABS core
• Surface: textured trigger-point pattern with raised ridges and flat zones for varying pressure
• Firmness: firm — more pressure than a soft EPP roller, which suits recovery work on larger muscle groups
• Weight capacity: approx. 130 kg
• Weight: approx. 600 g, light enough to keep in a gym bag
• Good for: calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, IT band area, lats and upper back

How to use

Roll slowly, around 2 to 3 cm per second, and pause for 20 to 30 seconds where a muscle feels tight. Keep the roller off your lower back and off joints, and breathe rather than holding your breath through a tender spot.

Care

Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap after use, and air dry. Store away from direct sunlight and heat, which will soften EVA foam over time.

If you have an injury or an ongoing pain issue, check with a qualified professional before adding foam rolling to your routine.
