Addaday Pro Massage Roller Product Review

“Disclaimer: I received an Addaday Pro Roller to review as part of being a BibRave Pro. Learn more about becoming a BibRave Pro (ambassador), and check out BibRave.com to review, find, and write race reviews!”

One of the first running-related products I reviewed on my running blog was a massage roller called The Stick. It was a self-massaging tool that you can use on different parts of your body to help reduce muscle knots and increase blood flow to prevent soreness in the future. The Addaday Pro Massage Roller is very similar to The Stick with the basic design, but is much more advanced in terms of how it can be used. There are different rollers or gears along the stick that are purposely placed to address specific muscle needs. For example, if you have a sore shin, there is a smaller gear that you can roll to target that muscle. I have been able to use the Addaday Pro Massage Roller on my calves, achilles, quads, hamstrings. The compact design allows it to be easily packed in a suitcase so you can travel with it if needed.

When I joined cross country in high school, we followed a strict routine of warming up, stretching, going for a run, followed a cool down run and more stretching. As a working adult, it is hard enough to find time to just go out and run, let alone all of the other pre and post run activities. The Addaday Pro Massage Roller addresses the stretching component by allowing runners to stretch out their muscles at their own leisure, whether it’s while sitting on the couch watching TV or at your desk at work. It is just a matter of keeping it nearby and going for a quick massage roller session to keep those muscles loose and stretched.
