Excerpt from Maximum Boost Workout© Book SMR Foam Roll Techniques Page 17:
 
Self Myofascia Release - Myo refers to muscle, fascia to the tissue that surrounds the muscle fibers. By applying pressure on tender areas  along the muscle tissue, the golgi tendon organs help trigger the relaxation of  the muscle spindles, helping to dissipate the adhesions, increase blood flow, and enhance overall movement.
  • The foam roll is a great recovery tool for all training programs.
  • Correct muscle imbalances
  • Prevent injuries through improved muscle extensibility
  • Improves postural alignment & hip mobility

Upcoming Essay:
The current top 10 weight loss myths.
Full essay will be available end of October 2008. I will talk briefly on the difference of weight loss and bodyfat loss...the latter you do not lose muscle nor excessive vitamins,minerals and nutrients during the process. Loss of muscle mass will decrease your metabolism...fact.
 
Then I will list the top 10 and reasons why they do not work, not healthy, short term and how it can lead to a cycle of more weight gain.
Currently...
10. No fat diet...differentiate good fats from bad fats..e.g. no trans fat vs.  good polysaturated fats found in fish oil.  Total low fat diet is effective.

This is part 1 of my ‘Got Knee Pain?’ essay.  In this essay, I will discuss the importance of ankle mobility and muscle balance in the calf/shin muscles.

Visualize what you do when you get out of bed. The first part of our body to touch the earth is our big toe followed by the other toes, the ball of our feet then heel.  If you ever stumped your toe, you will quickly notice the importance of our ankle mobility and how it affected our posture.  Click here for article
