Fitness Tip: Foam Roll & Inchworm

Toya's Tips!

FOAM ROLLING THE SHIN AREA

(To avoid getting shin splints and relieve tightness in the front of your leg)

• Kneel and place the roller under both shins while supporting your upper body with your hands.

• Roll down to your ankles and back to the knees. Be careful not to roll over the knee  joint.

• Remember to roll down the ankle to get the entire shin.

• The shins are often a neglected area—athletes often focus on the back of the leg.

INCHWORM (Release for Glutes, hamstrings and Calves)

• Stand with your legs straight, feet hip-width apart (A).

• Bend at the waist and place your hands on the floor (B).

• Keeping your legs straight, walk your hands forward while keeping your abs and lower back braced. Then take tiny steps to walk your feet back to your hands

• Do ten repetitions
