Appreciation post: the 2 dollar foam roller at the gym in Tampa beat my fancy one from the mall
Bought a 40 dollar textured roller last spring because the packaging sold me. Used it 3 times and gave up. The cheap smooth foam one sitting in the corner of my gym for free got used every single day for 5 months. I thought the bumps and ridges were doing something. They were just uncomfortable. The plain one actually got me to slow down and breathe through the tight spots instead of wincing my way off it. Anyone else ditch the pricey stuff after the free option won?
