Recent studies have shown that foam rolling has a multitude of benefits and these improvements can be seen at any age. Foam rolling produces a short term increase in flexibility as well as an increase in blood flow to the rolled area. It is often used as a warm-up instead of static stretching which can harm performance for a short period of time. Long term flexibility is increased by doing both a combination of foam rolling and stretching on a consistent basis. Some other benefits achieved are a decrease in the amount of soreness one has after a workout and an improvement in balance. It also affects the part of the nervous system responsible for stress reduction. Foam rolling is a healthy addition to any individual's workout routine and is also safe for individuals new to exercise.
