Have you heard of foam rolling?
I hadn't until a personal trainer introduced it to me. I admit - I thought it was stupid.
First of all, she said it was going to hurt. Really? Rolling on top of what looked like a thick pool noodle was going to hurt? Wimp!
I found out that I was the wimp!!! It hurt. Really hurt. So, I only did one hip.
Laura, personal trainer extraordinaire, talked about the benefits of foam rolling. Again, I doubted her. Stupid me! The next morning the hip that rolled felt great. The hip that didn't roll was jealous of the other hip!
I've learned my lesson. (Both of them!)
Time to suck it up and foam roll!

- Foam rolling hurts but is worth the pain.
- Laura is the expert, and I shouldn't doubt her.
