ROLL Recovery R8 Plus (Carbon Black) - Deep Tissue Massage Roller

I am obsessed with this! How did I not discover them before in my many years of running?! I saw them being featured at one of the youtube videos/olympic runner I was watching where they used this before their long run and after their long run. It's definitely a convenient, yet versatile way to get a 'roller' massage in without having roll all over the floor using the typical foam roller. The massage effectiveness is as good as a regular foam roller. The only downside is this very costly, but the value for money is definitely worth it if you're a serious runner or serious about your recovery! The firmness is fantastic and I love that I can adjust the overall tension if I want as well. Not only that I use this for my legs and glutes, but I actually also use it for my forearm and biceps/triceps. Great recovery tool for the arms as well especially after a heavy 'arm day' session at the gym. Not to mention, this is also very conveniet to pack and easy to travel with!

This may very well be one of the best purchases of my life!! LOVE IT Absolutely amazing, I wish I would have owned it years ago. don't waste your money on anything cheap. I finally bit the bullet and spent the money. Worth every penny. THANK YOU !!!!

If you have any upper body injury’s or are in recovery after a training session this isn’t great as it requires a fair bit of work to open. Muscles should be massaged in the direction of the heart ideally so that means opening the device repeatedly when in use which is quite a bit of work. It’s a quality device which is well built. Functionality wise it’s great to use on someone else or have someone use on you but seems expensive for what it is. If there was a version which has some sort of quick release to open and close it back I would buy since it does get deeep into the muscles.

Ça travail très bien ,je suis satisfait de ce produit je le conseil a tout le monde!

I’m a marathon runner and lifter and get deep tissue massage every three weeks. I have a Thera gun and a massage chair and all the rolling equipment. I was dealing with an “impinged” shoulder which I realized was an extremely tense muscle in my deltoid which reached all the way up my neck and to my bicep. Little by little I’ve worked away to get and maintain range of motion. I was down to mostly tension in my bicep in strange areas connecting to my deltoid and shoulder. Dumbbell curls felt awkward here. This handy device got a massive amount of pressure right where I needed it. It compressed my arm and I could just leave it on the tight spots or gently roll it thru the vice grip. It felt amazing first of all to finally have access to this area with enough pressure to roll it smooth. I’m surprised how good this felt. I also rolled some of my hip flexors. This does a better job than the thera gun by a mile to achieve this level of force. Works better than mat roll too. Now I feel zero impingement this puppy works. I’m a happy camper now. Fantastic product
