The lat foam roll reduces soreness and tightness while increasing flexibility and range of motion throughout the lats.
Instructions
Lie on your side and position a foam roller horizontally under your armpit with your bottom arm extended overhead and against the floor. Your other hand should be in front of you for support.
Slowly roll your body upward over the foam roller so it travels downward against your lat. When the roller reaches the bottom of your ribcage, pause, then reverse the direction back to the starting position.
Trainer’s Tips
Avoid rolling too quickly. Start with a slow tempo, moving across the muscle in a controlled fashion.
Start with light pressure and increase throughout the set.
