Foam roller stomach
Whether and which exercises you can do with the fascia roller for the abdome
Are you asking yourself whether and how you should use the foam roller on your stomach? Find the answer here.
Simply rolling around your entire stomach area is not what the foam roller is for. The foam roller is also not the right tool for treating the stomach area with all of its organs. However, fascia training in the stomach region does exist: ideally with the BLACKROLL® BALL 08 or a TRIGGER TOOL. These allow you to target and reach more specific areas, such as in your hip region or diaphragm. Proceed with caution when working in the stomach region. Find out more how it works in the following.
Hip Flexor Massage
Lie on your stomach with your forearms supported. The head rests loosely on the back of the hands. Place the BALL directly above the groin between the straight abdominal muscles and the lateral iliac crest. Slowly lower your weight onto the BALL.
Lower Abs Massage
Lie down on your back. Place your feet on the floor. Take the TWISTER in both hands. Let the knobs face you. Place the TWISTER in the lower abdomen, create pressure. Push the tissue towards your feet and bring it back again.
Diaphragm Massage
Start in prone position. Place the BALL below your ribs. Support yourself with your arms on the floor. Slowly place your weight on the ball. Breathe in and out deeply. Try to relax and let the ball slowly sink deeper into your muscles. Remain in this position.
