I put my foam roller substitute to the test today. I am getting better with the soda bottle, for sure, but I need to make my foam roller, which would at least be the right length (3 feet). I’m still not sure what the “hotel alternatives” are, but they are explained better than I thought the first time.
There is still a problem with the length of this recovery session, compared to stretching. This will take longer if I pause to work on different areas. Tony Horton suggests perfecting the foam rolling technique, then using it in front of the TV. I guess it’s multitasking for your health, or making good use of TV watching time.
A cast note: Is that Kristi Yamaguchi? I don’t think so, but it’s strange that the others get a name and description, whereas she only has a name (and Tony mentions in passing that she lives in Hawaii). Maybe it’s more about her privacy than to assume she is actually a celebrity. Obviously I haven’t seen Kristi Yamaguchi very often, or I would know right away.
P90X2 Tip of the Day: The foam rolling sessions in all the P90X2 workouts are for demonstration purposes only. Your foam rolling time and requirements may vary.
