Reply With QuoteI wouldn't waste money buying any fancy foam roller piece of crap. Just get some large width PVC piping and a baseball or softball. Ive even used a golf ball for little nooks and crannies.

I've done a little experimenting with the foam roller in the last few weeks. It is awesome for the quads and calves but I didn't find it effective for the hamstrings. I found an old softball that kind of gets in there. The tennis ball just kind of squished down and trapped leg hair between the ball and the floor...not cool. The best thing I've found for my hosed hammys is a brutal massage therapist...but that's 80 bucks a pop so usually wait until I'm noticing a knot or limited range of motion before I go there.

I just purchased a PVC pipe and a lacrosse ball. It hurts like hell, and is still tight. How long do you suggest rolling the IT bands?
