Great roller for after any workout!
This roller is well designed and durable. It has a rigid inner tube to hold the shape of the roller and will hold up well during stretching or an after workout tuneup. It feels built to last and comparing it to my other rulers, is vastly superior in both quality and ability!

Works great
I really enjoyed using this massage roller. It works perfectly under your feet and and your calves when you have a long day. The various different raised bumps help massage your muscles. I would recommend this to a friend. The only problem that I have is it's very heavy so it's hard to lift up and move around especially if you're weak because you're older or you're not feeling well. I would say it's probly 6 pounds just a roller by itself. I would still recommend this product.

    Sturdier than I expected
    This Athletic Works 18"x5.5" Massage Roller is sturdier than I expected. My husband is a cyclist and was using another muscle roller that had moving bead like parts but was not getting relief. The size of this roller is the key, it's wide enough to use on your hip but small enough to use on your calf. After bike riding sometimes up to 50 miles in one day, his leg muscles are tired. A few minutes with this roller relieves the pain. It stores upright in our closet and does not take up much space. The different shapes and sizes of the protrusions work for making the pressure stronger or lighter on your muscle. If you are not savvy on using on of these, there are so many videos online to show you how to get relief. He used this roller by moving his leg over the roller, you don't really need to use any hands like the other muscle rollers with moving bead like parts. This roller you can use yourself, alone. I would recommend this to anyone who spends a lot of time on their feet with tired leg muscles. After massaging yourself you will feel the stiffness go away.

    Great Relief Roller
    Great quality, hard rubber, black, smooth rollers for massages, the Athletic Works Massage Roller for muscles is a great addition to start or end your workout. The small nodes are made of a medium density foam. They are hard enough to provide relief for your aching muscles with a deep tissue massage. The rolling technique will help you loosen your overworked muscles, especially for beginners when stretching before and after your workouts. By using this Athletic Works Massage Roller as part of your daily routine, the different geometric patterns will help stretching and softening your tissues for maximum relief.

    Athletic Works For Me!
    The Athletic Works 18"x5.5" Massage Roller provides really Works! The roller assists with providing a firm compression. With the wide and narrow exterior textures, it actually almost feels like a deep tissue kind of sports massage. I love it! I have been using this product only on my back so far but it can definitely be used to roll out your calves, lats, glutes, and quads. The pattern on the outside of the roller is ideal for rolling through tight muscles, knots, and kinks. It may help to break up the lactic acid in order to accelerate muscle recovery. I have noticed that it truly helps to relieve pain and pressure in my tight / sore back muscles. Not only do the pressure points feel really good, but this massage roller may allow for improvement of your flexibility, balance, and mobility. The exterior of the product is made with a very dense type of foam (that does not flatten) over a firm and rigid hollow core. It is sturdy, durable, and able to hold my weight while still maintaining its shape. It is also very easy to clean - spot clean with a damp cloth. I would highly recommend this product.

    Very stiff rubber roller with a nice raised surfac
    Very nice roller. Compact and hollow core. I use a wooden 24 inch baker's roller to roll on my client easily. It may be too stiff to some. Thus you can add a piece of foam sponge or sheepskin cloth secured around the tube.

    Very good but need to know how to use
    I like it very much. My back was a little bit sore and this roller helped relieve the soreness almost instantly. I wish there was a link for videos showing how to use it because when I went to check on YouTube, some videos and on the wrap paper, it said that I should consult with a health care professional because some moves might not be suited depending on your health conditions.

    Perfect for integrating into your yoga routine!
    A couple years back I began to visit a chiropractor for intermittent back pain and he suggested I try doing yoga, so I purchased a few things to get going. I bought a mat and blocks but put off getting a deep tissue massaging roller. I'm glad I did because I wouldn't have known how great this could be. I love the color of it, the soft edges of the varied raised ribs, and sturdiness of this deep tissue massage roller. It's not flimsy and doesn't bend even when placing my full weight on it. I use it for my back and legs, but you could use this for so many more things other than yoga. It's got some weight to it so it doesn't feel cheap or weak. My cats also love it as you'll see in the included photos. It's a semi hard rubber so it's not uncomfortable and doesn't bite into your skin or pinch. I'm so glad I waited because I may not have made a good choice or would possibly have been overcharged for one of this quality. Well worth purchasing for yourself! I whole heartedly recommend this to anyone with back pain, even if you don't decide yoga is for you.

    Too hard.
    I'm reviewing the Athletic Works Deep Massage Roller. I have never had one so I have nothing to compare it too. Diameter is 5.5 inches diameter x 18 inches long. I tried several times to use it. My daughter was visiting when it arrived. She does CrossFit and had trouble using it. It has wide and narrow textures with firm and rigid hollow on inner core. It would be easier to use if there were handles on each end. It would be better if it was softer. Unless a person is in great shape it would be hard to use.

    Hurts so good!
    I decided to try this massage roller after a long bike ride. My legs were tired and sore and this roller really helped get the lactic acid moving. I have tried out many massage and foam rollers over the years. I was impressed by the solid construction and variety of tread type this one offered. I'll be using this one from now on.
