font-size: small;\">In this shop, I will be showcasing products I believe in and use in my daily practice to help my clients achieve peak health and fitness.<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 <\/span>For now, I only have three products in my shop, so you are essentially only getting a \u201csneak peek\u201d as I quickly pull the curtains back for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;\">In a few weeks, I will have a grand opening of sorts with many more products to offer.<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 <\/span>So, what\u2019s in the shop and how does it relate to me?<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 <\/span>Well, today, I wanted to briefly discuss the importance of using a rolling device to facilitate myofascial (soft tissue) release.<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 <\/span>Many of you know I run and train runners and athletes of all sports.<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 <\/span>One of the most common issues I see (especially in runners) is problems or pain related to trigger points or soft tissue tightness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;\">How do I solve this?<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 <\/span>When I injured my soleus training for the half marathon last fall, I used a roller to resolve pain and tightness before and after each run.<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 <\/span>Using a self roller such as the Tiger Tail is very effective in resolving these trigger points and areas of tightness.<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 <\/span>You will not be able to enjoy maximal strength and power production in your workouts if these trigger points are interfering or limiting you because of persistent pain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\">You would like to think stretching alone would rid you of such issues, but this is just not the case.<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 <\/span>Once you effectively relieve the trigger points, the muscle balance is restored and you can get back to 100% again.<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 <\/span>So if you or someone you know always complains of tightness or soreness in one calf, hamstring, IT band, etc., this may be just the answer.<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;\">The best part the Tiger Tail is that it is very affordable and easily transportable if you are on the go.<span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\">\u00a0 You control the pressure and location of the release.\u00a0 In just 5-10 minutes you will be on your way to feeling much better.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;
