the stick

anyone here ever use the stick? my calf has been hurting for a week so i went
out and bought the stick. sure enough i could feel a knot of muscle when i pressed
hard enough with the stick. basically it hurt like hell but by using the stick
i fixed my calf today. you should all get one lol.

i used one at a race expo i went to

It's pretty expensive though, I'll save the money for when my performances matter more.

Yeah, i love it just make sure you're using it right

otherwise its just pointless

i use a frozen water bottle

We always have extras at cross country meets, so I've used them then. If they didn't cost so much, I'd probably get one. They seem to work really well.

What's the difference between that stick and, um, a stick?

it hurts wen u try to roll a stick on ur leg
it releives pain wen u roll "the stick" on ur leg

i used it and it hurt so bad it made me cry...i was really tight

well it eventually releives pain

i have one but it dont do shit so its just sitting in my closet

i always use mine before my races to help me stretch
it relieves tension in my calves, i like it

and i didnt pay the $25 for it...i found it at a meet jammed up in a crack underneath a bleacher. so i took it

that's because you don't train enough to get knots in your muscles, it's useful for those that need it

Hmm... so I have never trained hard enough? Good sign for my improvement then I guess.

eh, i have tried the tennis ball trick though, and that worked quite well

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what she said.

I have one and it actually works well, yet its wasting away in the closet

i would love to have one, don't just let them waste away people!!!

Whenever im running with people and they say "this is getting hard" or something I say that.
I think it's starting to get old though.

i hate to admit it but that was perfect

I could pretty much pull a "that's what she said" on every post on this thread.
