3 tips for buying a foam roller
Foam rollers come in various styles: smooth or ribbed, and with different levels of firmness. If you're new to using a foam roller, it's best to start with a smooth and soft one, allowing you to ease into it without causing pain.
A frequent mistake is choosing a roller that's too firm, resulting in discomfort and discouraging continued use. As you become more comfortable with the roller, you can progress to firmer options, either smooth or ribbed.

A ribbed foam roller, also known as a trigger roller, offers a more intense massage and is effective at targeting knots. It's a suitable option for individuals seeking advanced trigger point therapy to help alleviate stiff muscles.
Besides firmness and ribbing, think about the size of the foam roller you require and whether you need one that offers a deeper massage than a standard roller.
- A longer foam roller, around 50-60 centimetres, is ideal for treating larger muscle groups, like your back.
- A small foam roller is convenient for travel or taking to the gym, and it's also great for addressing smaller muscle groups.
- A battery-powered foam roller with a vibration mode brings an extra-effective massage experience, as the vibrations boost your blood circulation too.
FAQ
For those who exercise a lot or have muscle problems, a foam roller is a good tool to invest in. The foam roller helps you with everything from muscle knots to the rehab of damaged muscles. A foam roller can also help you with the recovery of hard-trained muscles and pain relief, as it massages out the muscles. This, in turn, enables and speeds up the body's own healing. So you get an effective recovery ability.
There are different sizes and thicknesses of the foam rollers that you will find in the stores, and the different variants fit different purposes.
- A thicker foam roller is suitable for larger muscles, while a smaller one is suitable for smaller muscles such as the calves and arms.
- A long foam roller is more efficient and comfortable for larger surfaces, such as the back. The shorter models are great for accessing and massaging smaller individual muscles.
You can use a foam roller basically every day without any problem. But, of course, you need to know whether it helps you or not. If you use it incorrectly or overuse it, you may get hurt instead. If you get more pain on a specific area from using your foam roller too much, take a break for a couple of days until the pain disappears.
It depends mainly on two factors:
- What size and thickness do you want on your foam roller? The larger models are recommended for beginners because it is easier to work the technic with them. You can also perform more types of exercises with a larger foam roller. The larger one is also better for massaging the back, while smaller models are better suited for massaging smaller muscles.
- Do you want a smooth model or a patterned one? A smooth foam roller is recommended for beginners, but of course, it is a matter of taste. The patterned models provide more intense massage, and it is easier to massage out muscle knots and access specific points. However, the smooth variant is effective for larger muscle areas, such as the back or thighs.
