You may have seen people doing this at the gym and you were thinking that this is not for you. Well, you may think twice. Foam Rolling (Self Myofascial Release) – helps prevent common injuries, helps you de-stress, and keeps you flexible. You can foam roll all of the muscles – stay on the bulkiness of the muscles, not on the joints. If you had a bad day – lot’s of tension builds up – then foam rolling will help release that tension that builds up in the connective tissue. Foam Rolling before and after your workouts will help you gain flexibility.

Health and Fitness have been my passion. Back in the '80s in Romania, I have been a competitive runner (1500 m and 3000 m). In 2008 I got enrolled in the Personal Training program with NPTI - National Personal Training Institute, day class. This is a great opportunity to get in shape and see the results of these training techniques on your own body!
