I recently wrote an article on the importance of SMR as well. My quads used to be soooo tight, all the time, and my calves, and my tensor fascia tatae (outer front hip), and my iliotibial band (outer thigh), well ok pretty much my entire lower body. Anyway, SMR was my savior. If you are interested, you can check it out at http://livewell360.com/2008/08/smr-for-long-and-lean-muscles/ Sheila Mark,

I am a big fan! I have three of my own! I've used it on myself and with patients when they had upper back or pec tightness and pain. It really is a miracle device.

The oh-so-awesome thing about them is you can actually do soft tissue release 'on yourself' with these rollers, which was and is unheard of. Most of the time you need a massage therapist, or PT or ATC to attend to the soft tissue, like your myofascia. Great post.
