Excellent way to relieve sore muscles after working out. Using the roller allows me to get in a short workout on days when I don't go to the gym.

My husband I and have both used this product, and we think that it helps relieve muscle stiffness if you actually take the time to do it.  It is relaxing and simple to do, and it only takes a few minutes to read through the book that comes with it and explains the concept.  Also, the balls and book are small enough that they are easy to take along on trips.

Great way to warm up the lower body and get the blood flowing. Like to use it to get the glutes and hips going for squats, deadlifts and to get my hips ready for benchin'. Good to just work out the kinks after a heavy leg day. First time you stretch it, the Slingshot logo tears and sounds like something awful has happened.

Using these to help tone up is much better than excersize alone, it made me sore for a few days but that soreness goes away after a few days.
Only time will tell how much this will benefit me so I'll do a follow up in a couple weeks.

Smooth transaction,  and great product for a reasonable price.  I've been having some back problems,  and thus has helped with the pain.  It's also good to use after a workout to get rid of that pesky lactic acid buildup,  to ease the pain and lessen the muscle soreness.  I only use it to massage my back.  If you roll over it the right way,  it will even crack your back in the best spots

This relieved the sore spots I was developing in my heels when I was bedbound.  I also have hardware over my ankle bone from surgery that is close to the surface and easily gets sore, and the gel pad is big enough to relieve both areas.  My physical therapist was impressed with this product.

This works well! from the first time you use it you feel the muscles tightening. My husband used only 7 times then happen to get the flu and hasn't restarted and in 7 days you see the six pack! I used it three times less then 3 minutes each time and im toning up already!

I have been going to PT for a torn calf muscle and typically have pain and tightness each evening. I have been icing nightly with some relief. I have found that that relief is doubled when I follow icing with this product. I definitely recommend!

I got this video during my first trimester, so I've been using it for about 5-6 months now.  I absolutely adore it!  I was having frustrating pain in my hips and lower back that made it difficult to sleep, and doing this workout made it stop.  I feel wonderful after I work out - it's just the right intensity level and allows for easy adjustments on days when you just don't feel great so that you still get something out of it without feeling guilty.

It really helps to open up the body before and after exercise.  It's specially good for working out the kinks after you work out and feel tight.

As a high school wrestling coach, I am no stranger to muscle soreness and lingering aching pain in my muscles and joints.  For a while, I had to find ways to cope with sore legs and sore neck muscles form the grueling practices I put my athletes through.  Hot baths and foam rolling just wasn't cutting it.  That's why I bought the Miracle Stick.  This thing is great.  It's like my own personal masseuse I can carry around everywhere with me.  In fact, I think it's better: it doesn't have to rest and doesn't charge me $80 an hour to use it!

If you train hard and can't let sore muscles stop you from living the rest of your life comfortably, than you should buy this now.  Or you can keep having pain and discomfort when you train, drive to work, sleep, and walk around.  Choice is yours.

Treat yourself - your body will thank you.

Very good for relaxing the muscles, before and after exercising. Get one! You will not be disappointed! My personal trainer uses it all the time too.

I use this with several foam rollers every day for stretching and message. Foam rolling according to Dr. Ben Kim's method has eliminated most of my pain. It's amazing how it makes my middle aged muscles more limber.

I had a serious injury a couple of years ago from which I am still recovering. But I have reached a point where exercise and strengthening is really helping with that recovery. I have found that a few minutes of foam rolling to work the muscles before I start working out really seems to help. I also like to do a few minutes of foam rolling after I exercise and cool down. I have a couple of foam rollers and even a knobby hard plastic roller stick. I use different sizes/texture rollers for different muscles. So when I was offered this set at a discount for review purposes I thought why not, its another to add to my growing collection. I am glad I accepted because the texture and firmness is different on these and it works well. The inner roller comes out of the outer roller and is quite good as the smaller diameter works muscles differently than the larger diameter.

Overall I think this is a nice addition to my roller collection. I would also recommend trying a lacrosse ball. They work great for getting into smaller areas and joints. I use the lacrosse ball against the wall for working my shoulders and chest. One thing I have found in my experience is that I only need five minutes or so with the rollers to get a good benefit. I have a few friends that swear by 20-30 minutes of roller time, but I have tried that and it seems quite excessive for me. Five minutes seems to give me all the manipulation I need, unless I have some really stubborn muscles that ache from the previous days exercise, then I may go a few minutes longer.

I have really stiff muscles all over my body with chronic backpack and my main source of finding relief used to be massages and stretches, sometimes trying to break up muscles knots with my hands which was quite unsuccessful. massages became too pricey, I went to see a PT and he strongly recommended a foam roller. What a great idea! The GoFit foam roller attracted me with its lightweighness and seemed like durability, which is true as I have been using it over a year now and it shows no signs of damage whatsoever. The price factor was very right too. It's very firm, and that's whet I expect from a foam roller, as a beginner back then it was even hurting after couple of minutes of working on one zone but the pain was dismissed by relief of tension. To achieve best relays, I would recommend to use it on a level firm surface like wooden floor/vinyl/tile because carpet doesn't yield same results to me.

I use this ball to roll over sore body parts after workouts to loosen tight muscles. Works great for me.

My back and shoulders are in constant pain, Ive been practicing jiujutsu and Cross fit for years now and these bands have been a lifesaver. They facilitate my stretches and make it much more effective. I've notice that using them after my workouts has helped my muscles recover faster.
Put simply, these bands are awesome. I've used several kinds for workouts and injury rehab over the years, and these are by far my favorites
I also use them before my workout to warm up and I notice my range of motion and muscular contraction improving immediately.
They are a great post-workout tool specially to keep active during active rest days.
I highly recommend this product, very happy with my purchase.
