FitBeast Back Foam Roller Targeted Muscle Roller for Deep Tissue Massage, Back Stretcher

These are amazing!

Build: The build quality of the Fitbeast foam roller is simple, but very solid. The inner ring (apparently made of racing helmet material) has a smooth finish. There is text embossed to indicate which side is the more firm, but this is pretty obvious just from pressing the nubs. The foam layer is firmly attached to the inner ring. As indicated above, the roller itself is half firm and half softer. It also has a channel down the middle where there are no nubs to avoid the spine. I thought that was a really nice feature that has been lacking on other products that I’ve used. I go a bit further into comfort below. After a month’s use, I can’t see any wear on the roller. It seems like something that will last a long time. I have purchased other Fitbeast products before including various grip strength tools and gymnastic rings. I incorporate most of these items into my daily routine and have had no issues with quality after having used some of their products for 3+ years. I definitely recommend the brand. Usage: I’m a big fan of foam rollers and have a small collection that I’ve accumulated over the last 5-6 years. I have rotated between a standard 6” diameter roller, a more aggressive knobby roller, and one that runs between the shoulder blades. They all have their purpose, but also drawbacks. My bumpy roller was too aggressive, especially on my shoulder blades. I also felt that it was too aggressive near my spine. I found it useful, but often painful. The type that ran between my shoulder blades didn’t do anything that my standard roller would do and wasn’t aggressive enough. After having used the Fitbeast for a month, I think I will eliminate those two from the workout space. I can’t imagine giving up the 6” roller. It’s very versatile for the whole body. I think the Fitbeast roller shines when used on the back. I have tried it to foam roll my legs a bit. It was effective, but I think that the 6” roller is just a bit easier for that application since it’s closer to the ground. That said, for any back application, the Fitbeast roller is hands down the most effective foam roller I’ve used. I’m a software engineer and sit a lot, so I use foam rollers daily for maintenance. I’ve used the Fitbeast daily for a month for both maintenance and on several occasions where I had a particular need to foam roll. It has always been very comfortable to use and it does a great job helping to work the tight areas in my back. I like the bigger yoga wheel since it gives my back a nice stretch. It doesn’t irritate my shoulder blades or spine so I can get the therapeutic effect without the discomfort so I much more relaxed when I use roller. I’m very happy with my purchase!

Love it

I've got a bunch of these and this is my favorite. It's a decent price compared to the others and incorporates some of the best traits from others. It pops my back and provides a deep massage to my back and neck. And appears solidly construted.

It is hard to keep balance at beginning, my suggesstion is make knobs at both side of the edge, then the wheel can touch the ground stablly. it can relax my back, but it is a little bit expensive.
