Well they show my 600lbs life on TLC, it's not like I have a choice.

foam roller over large areas and lacrosse ball for pinpointing works great
you want something really crazy get a random orbital car buffer and use it on your muscles or a percussion massager

I don't understand how people can squat heavy without foam rolling first, I tried once because I was feeling lazy and it was so uncomfortable and I felt like I was about to tear a tendon or something.
Bought that one in the picture 3 days ago

Just your quads or everything lower body?
>>37737808
When I squat I foam my thighs; quads, hamstrings, IT Band, and Hip flexors, as well as my lower and upper back.
Then I do a flexibility thing to open up my hips;

You shouldn't foam roll your lower back, numb nuts.
It's alright. My gymbro loves to help me stretch with it though. He likes to put my legs over his shoulders as I foam roll on my back.
My ass always becomes sore afterwards though.
