Foam rollers can be extremely useful tools for anyone from hardcore sportspeople to average gym goers.
Once relegated to the dusty corners of gyms or mistaken for fluorescent pool toys, there is a new breed of high-quality rollers providing support and relief for athletes. They apply targeted pressure to muscle groups and joints that can take strain during exercise.
Since its launch in 2016, BackBaller has become the go-to foam roller for many of the world’s leading sports teams, including Manchester City FC. All the guesswork is removed by a bespoke 16-step program that targets the most important muscle groups for a myofascial release. These rollers are made from high density EVA foam and are contoured to minimise spinal contact. Each roller is fitted with steel ball bearings and neoprene grip pads in an ergonomic design — plus they are compact enough for travel as well as home use.
