HOW TO RELEASE TIGHT MUSCLES (Prevent injuries and move better!)

  • Learn how to perform active release on yourself using a foam roller or ball. I made this video so you can follow along with me, but feel free to spend more time on any tight areas that you might have. Ideally, this active release technique should be the first part of your warm-up whether you're headed out for a run, about to do a strength session, or even just before you do some mobility or static stretching. If you jump right into mobility or stretching, you may not actually release your tight muscles. Doing active release first will loosen up your muscles so you can then fully benefit from mobility exercises and get the range of motion you need for your best running form.
    I know this may just seem like another thing you should do but don't really want to do. My advice is to make it a goal to do this for a month and see if it helps. Notice if you feel better on your runs, especially that first mile. Sometimes one tight muscle can screw up your entire stride. Also, know that a little is better than nothing. I think a longer, fully body active release session once a week is a good idea, but most days a couple of minutes is more than enough. Personally, I feel that listening to upbeat music and doing the active release is a great way to get both my mind and body ready for my run.
    Special thanks to Kevin Purvis for making sure I implement this on a daily basis. www.kpperforman...

    I'm watching this a 3:30 a.m. and luckily you're just the right person to get me motivated to get out and run today! Thank you for sharing. Great tips as always. 👍❤

    So serendipitous that you posted this today. My outer ankle has been bugging me for a while. 10 seconds of release on the shin and the pain is gone!
    Shins are the one area I never ever look after. Gonna show them some love from now on. Great video. Thanks!

    Hmm, I never really considered rolling before running. It makes sense I guess. Warm up, roll, run. I might have to give it a try!

    I do a lot of this before my runs, more of a shortened version just to hit what I know is tight and it makes for a more relaxed and smoother run. Good stuff!

    Been subbed for a while now, not a single video has came through on my feed or notifications. Only reason I saw this was from V02 productions...
    RUclips is drunk. Nice to see this video and get a informative answer 👍
    I had a Peroneus tertius issue caused by tight calves and poor ankle ROM was so bad it was diagnosed as CECS. Took a year off and started back slowly stretching religiously.
    I envy the people who don't stretch and are injury free their who running careers.

    Thanks! I just started walking and mild jogging for weight loss in the last 2 weeks and ordered my first roller set last week!
    This was great information, the exercises I did felt great! I was not sore in feet or quads but WOW!
    Here is to my first full week starting tomorrow, bright and early; got in 29 miles last week, vast majority is walking still... but pace has needed to increase for same hr, progress!

    You seem like a very sweet person. Thats a rare trait these days unfortunately. Keep up the great work! .... ive been kinda slacking on my running ever since they cancelled the boulder marathon, but once i get back into it, ill be trying out the exercises in this video.

    Cheers Sandi, the front shin lacrosse ball - yikes!! Think I’ll have to work on that one!. I now also do about 10 mins walking post mobility / activation just to get everything moving. Seem to be minimising injuries and the past two years I’ve probably had most of the common ones!. Takes a while to make it a habit and see the benefits. Certainly helping me though! Keep up the great work and hope you are doing well?

      Ha! The tennis ball would have been better but sometimes it's hard to think about what I'm doing the same time as I'm talking. :) Sounds like you have a great warm-up routine!

    Hi Sandi, great video- esp your emphasis on relaxation while MFL, and not-forcing a release. (Also: SO good to show the psoas target!)
    I’m doing research on fascia (fascianating stuff), and have a couple q’s:
    1) what’s your reasoning behind the 30s/area?
    2) how do you feel about the company “Addaday’s “Biozoom” trigger gun?
    I’ve been loving your shares: you’re wise, talented, intuitive and well-expressing.

    I know that oranges help to relax tense muscles. You need to eat one or two oranges.

    My inside elbow tendons have been so inflamed, it’s absurd. The only time it doesn’t hurt is when I’m lifting, ironically enough.
