Foam rollers can help ease muscle pain and help you to relax.
Adding rubber bands to your workouts is the perfect way to warm up muscle activation or as a way to add dynamic tension to your session. Bands can improve the quality of your exercises, help you to focus your control and are a great alternative to machines that can give your workout a bit of variety.
