Foam Roll Shins
A step-by-step guide from the Ægir Iron exercise library: how to do the movement and what to watch for.
- Equipment
- Other
HOW TO PERFORM
- Set up on all fours with the roller under the front of the shins, just below the knees.
- Shift your weight back onto the roller, with the hands on the floor taking the rest.
- Roll slowly between the knee and the ankle along the muscle on the outside of the shin bone.
- Pause on tender spots and breathe, turning the legs slightly in to keep the pressure off the bone.
FORM TIPS
- Roll the muscle beside the shin bone, never the bone itself.
- Shift more of your weight into the hands to ease the pressure.
