Lazíts aktívan és a tested meghálálja! Ismeritek a foam rollert, vagyis a masszázshengert/Pilates hengert? Többféle névre hallgat és sok mindenre lehet használni. Van egy nagyon hálás tulajdonsága, mégpedig az, hogy az egész tested átgyúrhatod vele. Mire jó? A foam roller segítségével oldhatjuk az izomcsomókat, fellazíthatjuk a feszes izomban és környékén található letapadásokat, és kimasszírozhatjuk a triggerpontokat, serkenthetjük a vérkeringést. Használata: Hengerelés közben lassan testsúly terheléssel gördülünk át az izmon. Amikor elérünk egy triggerponthoz (izomcsomó), egy pontban érzünk fájdalmat. Ezen a ponton megállunk és várunk (5-30 mp), hogy múljon a fájdalom. A henger felszíne és a testsúlyunk terhelésének a hatására, kiszorítjuk a vért a fájdalmas pontból, ezzel csökken a fájdalmat okozó anyagok jelenléte az adott pontban. Amikor tovább gördülünk a pont újra vérbő lesz, de már elszállítódtak onnan a fájdalmat kiváltó gyulladásos anyagok. Próbáljátok ki! Szeretettel küldök nektek egy kis összeállítást!
