You don't need a foam roller, just some flat ground.
>>34977338
You should, foam rolling helps prevent the worst quad, ham, and lower back DOMS, and most importantly: calf DOMS, they are so fucking bad for me normally, but after foam rolling I barely even get them.

foam rolling is way more useful than stretching, unless you have a specific flexibility need for some sport or something

What foam roller should I get from the above link? Money is no concern

this and it helped cure my knee discomfort caused by tight quads that i couldn't stretch decent enough with regular stretching.

I had pic related and it tore at the sides after a few months. Also this guy from work said he made one from pvc pipe and tape, I think the directions are in the sticky.

Now I have one of these and it's a lot harder but sturdy.

>implying
my squat and rdl roms increased by 30-40% thanks to stretching

I have this one >>34980308 but honestly it doesn't really matter, they all do the same thing. Just get one that you can comfortably cover the entire width of your leg with and has a decent diameter. But keep in mind that some of the ones made of actual foam will start to deform a bit after a long time of use.
Also think about getting a lacrosse ball. They're cheap and you can do the same thing as a foam roller with it only you can get into smaller spaces like the piriformis and peroneals.

Seriously quads are a bitch to stretch. I have yet to find a stretch exercise that actually gives mine the stretch they need. Foam rolling has been amazing for them.
>>34977338
fuck yes you should

Why don't you buy a 13" black dildo aswell and use it to stretch out your asshole, faggot.
How big does it need to be? There's ones that are 12, 18, and 36 inch on amazon. Do I really need to drop $35 on the 36 inch or will I be fine with 12?
>>34983274
Because I already bought one to roll my calves, silly.
