The Stealth Align is one of the best foam
rollers that you can buy. This “new
design concept” of a foam roller initially transpired when Michael Palizzi (one
of the founders of MuuvSport) was stretching his lower back on a roller and he
realized that it just could not give him the stretching range and motional
flexibility he was looking for. After researching various products and
seeing that a real need for a better roller, Michael teamed up with Ernest
Peralta to develop a product that could take rollers to the next level.
As a result, MuuvSport™ was created based on the necessity to develop something
more robust than the standard rollers on the market. Out of this desire
to improve a good idea and build a better product, a ground-breaking patent
pending design called the Stealth Align™ was born.
HOW
DOES THE STEALTH ALIGN™ WORK?
The
Stealth Align™ is designed to stimulate, stretch, and provide better blood flow
to your muscles. A term called Self-Myofascial Release (SMR) is a
technique used ideally when using a foam roller to keep muscles from tightening
up and exerting more force than your bones can tolerate. Muscles can be
full of scar tissue and soft tissue adhesions or knots also referred to as
tight spots. Think of knots in a muscle as knots in a rope. If one
were to pull on a rope with a knot in it, i.e., stretch a muscle
that hasn't been relaxed, the knot will simply tighten. In
order to lengthen the rope, the knot or tight spot must first be taken out,
meaning the muscle has to be inhibited and in a state of relaxation prior to
lengthening.
WHEN
SHOULD I USE THE STEALTH ALIGN™ ROLLER?
Ball
release and Foam Roller Release can be done pre or post workout. It should then be followed by gentle
stretches. Once you eliminate the knots
and smooth out the muscles, you are preparing your body for a successful foam
roll. Depending on your degree of tightness, in the beginning it may
create an unfamiliar tension and discomfort but you will feel better
afterwards. The important thing to
remember is that you need to breathe when doing release work. The breath facilitates the movement.
