Myofascial Release SPLURGE

Rumble Roller: $45-$70

A Rumble Roller rolls out myofascial (connective tissue) tightness through rolling exercises with the extra pressure of the bumps or ridges. Users say that the bumps give a more intense release to their tension and the roller holds up under pressure well.

Foam Roller: $15

A plain foam roller, such as this one by Exervo, also rolls out the myofascial tissue, without the extra pressure points.
