Rumble Roller

My PT swears by this every time I train with her. It looks so enticing for after those really tough workout sessions. I use a cheapie regular roller now from Sports Authority and it has already helped so much with long term back issues. There is nothing better then an aligned and relaxed back. Love it! No more pain management with drugs.

They are kind of pricy so cannot wait until my wife lets me spend money on one of these rumble rollers! Has anyone tried one?

That looks like it would feel so good. Please update us and let us know what you think of it.

Oh my goodness, I just got this exact roller and it is WONDERFUL! I love it! I foam roll every day with a regular firm foam roller and I thought this would be a nice addition. It really gets into the areas that need some digging. It feels so good.

I highly recommend getting this roller. I would also recommend getting the longer one, I did, as i am used to rolling with a longer roller. I do not recommend this for first time users or if you are not athletic. It is a firm roller I think it would hurt too much if you aren't used to rolling.

Awesome to hear good reports on it. I have already hinted to my wife I want it for my bday next week. :) Rolling around on these rollers sure beats the heck out of paying for massages.

Also beats going to the chiropractor! My whole body cracks when I roll. Your wife needs to get this for you! Send me her number and I'll tell her.:) Seriously, you will love this.

Hey BTB - after researching for a while, I decided on this one (trigger point) and tried it out for the first time today. Heaven! The massage is so therapeutic and unreal. I do believe it may have also straightened out the curvature of my spine a little, but that might be wishful thinking. It also is designed to build a strong core with the right exercises. I am excited about a long relationship the two of us are going to have...

I've used mine a few times now and let me start by saying that I have never used a regular foam roller before.... it is intense? YES! but it feels amazing. So if you're like me and haven't used a foam roller ever, it will take you a while to use your full weight on the roller. The other thing I need to mention is that it does leave bruises on my legs, but for what it does, it's well worth it and I wouldn't complain about the bruises at all.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
