luv your vids brian and following along w/ u. also i have the foam roller too. also good that u always remove your shoes and just do socks which is good for stability and mechanics and u should continue. i would like to see more your home workouts. i like following along, u explain well, u are handsome and u present well. ❤️kim

[@Criticalbench]

Thanks for watching

Thanks, brother, great video! ❤ When I tried to get the ebook, the page gives me an infinite "loading animation" after providing my email address

[@lorenrenee1]

I’m so impressed he’s not screaming in pain like I do.

[@Criticalbench]

Truly Coach Brian's signature! He never disappoints!

[@aramos6089]

U might be and probably are very tight. Meaning your muscles are tight

[@macnero4932]

Lol eventually it’ll be less painful

[@knightrdrx]

More you do it..

[@knightrdrx]

And it's not a rumble roller

[@jat-1689]

I’m an athlete, and foam rolling was not an option for recovery or warming up, we do massages and stretching instead. I bought a roller just a few weeks ago and did the routine myself, massive help btw. I’m way more agile, less unnecessary injuries due to lack of stretch in some areas, just overall better. Thanks for the introduction to foam rolling!

[@Criticalbench]

Love to hear it, scream it louder because there are still people who doubt. 💪

[@blairmarshall544]

Love this delivery. It’s not the over the top peppy high energy crap all other fitness coaches are spewing out on yt. Just great info delivered well.

[@Criticalbench]

Thank you very much!!

[@Nini_369]

First time I ever foam rolled my Lats and Quads ” I was speaking in tounge lol ,,, the things we overlook” foam rolling and stretching really changed my life for the best🙏🏽

[@Criticalbench]

Good stuff!

[@Internationale1]

How did it change your life? Never thought of doing this exercise.

[@PULAG]

He quit 3 days later..

[@blessed2338]

Yeshua Hamashiach is God in the flesh, the Son of God, the Word of God, and he died so that you may be presented blameless in the sight of the Father. And so you may inherit his kingdom. The LORD Yeshua Hamashiach is the only way to the Father and his kingdom. Repent of your sins accept him into your life as your LORD and Savior before it's too late, every day is not guaranteed. John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me. May God bless you all.

[@Paddycazcabel]

Just did this on the Lats for a first time now, im a rock climber. Holy fuck, I am screaming every roll, but I knooowww it's a good pain, what a discovery

[@alandmcleod5988]

I'm new to foam rolling so, of course, scanned KZbin and watched heaps. Dude, your's the best!!!

[@Rickiizthe1]

Thanx for the intro on using the roller, I work in the medical field and the dangers of using a foam roller on the lower back or lumbar is too risky....so i wouldn't suggest to do that anymore...but thanx for the foam roller quick guide bro, its helps my tight muscles 😊😊

[@Criticalbench]

You're welcome

[@Rickiizthe1]

Well when you use the foam roller it's OK to use it on your back where you have more thoracic support meaning your chest, but as you move lower past the rib cage, there is no support for your spine in the lower lumbar region. Our spines already contort in the S shape curve so you are pushing in the same direction but added more pressure on your organs....plus if the person is dealing with a pinch nerve or sciatica you could be making the problems worse.... Some people who have back issues don't require tightening or elongating of the spine.

[@Rickiizthe1]

Here's a link to Vid to help Explain in a bit more detail. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4Gnepuufstleas

[@kanecooper8174]

He didn’t foam roll his lower back…

[@renee8543]

Thanks for the video. I liked how you were real and was like this hurts. I was hurting doing this. But it was a hurt so good pain. This was longer than 5 minutes, but you tried! First time I saw one of your videos, I look for your others.

[@Criticalbench]

Awesome! Glad you liked it, Renee 👍

[@patriciarudolph9089]

Thanks you there was pain here and there but with time it will get better! Asante ❤😊

[@Criticalbench]

You got this!

[@jvheg473]

I have never felt better, and my pinched nerve in my neck is so less painful with rolling of my shoulders with coach Brian's video, breaking up tissue.

[@Criticalbench]

Glad to hear! Thanks for supporting the channel!

[@GerganaHinrichs]

Love this video! I keep going to it whenever I need foam rolling 😊

[@girirajlakhotia1853]

I don’t even realise time. Great work brother. Love from 🇮🇳

[@annabanana6005]

Thank you for this! I've had pro body builders and trainers tell me my muscles are like "frozen chicken" and that I should foam roll. Stretching doesn't seem to help at all. I downloaded your PDF and followed along with the video with my black foam roller. Super painful, but I'm hoping it'll pay off soon!

[@Criticalbench]

Keep up all your hard training and you'll be great... we appreciate your efforts! 💪

[@jimmedavis3131]

Thanks, used this today after working out and I feel much better

Ms. Lil Babii it hurts when your muscles are sore and stiff but feels good after

[@phillipharris6143]

000

[@voodooblue6162]

@Lil Babii If you lift weights, your muscles become stiff and tender, which can lead to inflammation if they are not "loosened" properly.

[@MrWolfSnack]

@Lil Babii It hurts because your body is like set in concrete for people that never exercise.

[@johnnesbitt3210]

Thanks coach. Never foam rolled before but after watching this I'm going to give it a go. I'm stuck in lockdown in Vietnam and working on my overall fitness and health. This will be another new thing I'll try. Once again thanks.

Can we do this before warmup of workout or after finishing the workout or the day I am not working out

Ideally, you should do it everyday. You can do it whenever you want.
