Know what SMR is…

SMR, Self‐Myofascial Release, involves releasing one's muscles and fascia to improve elasticity and flexibility.

SMR techniques help in preventing excessive tension and promote muscle relaxation.

Common tools used to perform SMR are foam roller, medicine ball, lacrosse/tennis ball, and the stick.

How can you benefit from SMR?

Improved mobility, reduced scar tissue, decreased muscle tone, improved movement quality, and an affordable alternative to the more expensive massage therapy sessions.

Beginners can perform SMR before the start of their workout while experienced individuals can perform post-workout.

When should you not perform SMR?

SMR is unsuitable for recently injured areas, circulatory problems, chronic pain conditions, and bony prominences/joints.

How much time should you spend on SMR?

Time spent on SMR depends on tissue quality, ranging from 30 seconds to 2 minutes per area. Always spend more time on tighter muscles & fascias.
