Setup instructions

1) Lie on the floor on top of the roller. Place it on your thighs and rest on your forearms. You should be in a low plank position with toes hovering of the floor.

Perform instructions

1) Find the area of discomfort and hold it in place - apply some pressure.

2) Slowly roll back and forth along the muscle.

Note: If you discover more discomfort around the area, repeat step 1 (for about 20-30s). You shouldn't feel pain. Alternatively, you can rest your right leg on top of your left to emphasise the pressure.
