Unique compression for the calves.

If I’m working with someone who has experienced Body Tempering many times, I love doing this posterior chain set up. My main concern is making sure they do not feel hyperextension in the knees. But for most people this feels phenomenal. A great way to address a large tissue area in a small amount of time. I will usually let this cook for about four minutes.

What intrigued me about body tempering? The ability to give feedback as I was being rolled out. I love being able to identify the bad spots and signal how much pressure I wanted applied.

Hard to get the hamstrings to receive pressure if the glutes are battling them. Our goal in tempering is not to force a mechanical change in tissue by beating them up. Our goal is to give input to the nervous system, so it can lower perceived threat and let go of unwanted contraction. Once the glutes went passive, so did the hamstrings.

Old school and one of the best pressures on the trap. If you have one of these tables do this immediately.

I’ve had a lot of questions about this tool over the last year. Came across extra materials, so had a friend make up a round of tools. Order at our website.

Giving the adductors some love. It’s starting to get warm here in Iowa so people are venturing outside to run. I suggest this to many people who increase run volume and hit the trails.

Over the years, I’ve realized how beneficial visualization is. When I have heavy rollers on me, sometimes I don’t realize how guarded I am. Being reminded to breathe, visualize the roller sinking down into the tissue, wiggling my toes, letting my glutes get heavy, all these little things make an impact.

3 rounds of consistent compression on the calves.

Dynamic. Static. Agitation. I see a lot of strength and conditioning coaches use dynamic. I see a lot of massage therapists and body workers use static. I see a lot of physical therapists and athletic trainers use agitation.

This 50 pound rogue roller can do wonders for muscles along with the thoracic.

Whether it’s my first session with someone or my fifth, I always let them acclimate to the weight on their bodies before rolling or twisting. Personally, I’m a fan of static loading, trying to slowly release muscle guarding over time.
