Self-Myofascial Release

Posted by jim on Monday, August 28, 2006. Visit jim's BodyDaemon Journal.

With respect to my knee, I have problems with overpronation of my feet - right inparticular - which is in part caused by tight calves. I stretch the hell out of my calves, but I'm not making as much progress as I'd like with tightness. So I'm giving this a go too:

I don't have a foam roller to hand, so instead I filled an empty 2 Litre bottle of coke full with water, and used that. It felt like a rolling pin: I imagine I'll be sore tommorow. But hopefully it's helping to loosen up my calves and hamstrings.


Has anyone else tried this?
