Warning: The foam rolling guide the sticky links to is down
Just picked up a foam roller and wanted to see /fit/s recommended exercises.

Just put it underneath a muscle and try to put as much weight on it as possible while rolling. It's not one of those things where you need a guide. Once it stops hurting, do the other muscle, then switch muscles, it'll stop hurting after a while of doing it regularly.

The rolling should be back and forth by the way don't try to turn into a car it's not gonna work

isn't it possible to injure certain parts of your body on it (i.e. neck)?
Cover it with a water based lube and shove it up your ass
Fuck you, and fuck your gypsy snake oil bullshit.

Remember to ONLY use a water-based lube.

Not if you're not fucking stupid. Don't do shit that's obviously gonna break your neck and you're fine. Don't try to roll your head, your abs probably won't work, to roll your back muscles you just have to lay on it.

It's a tool to massage oneself, there are studies behind the benefits of massages for recovery, to prevent injuries, etc.
It's not snake oil at all.
