Foam Roll Chest Stretch and Thoracic Spine and Rib Joint Mobilization

Foam Roller Pec Stretch and Thoracic Mobilization - Posture and flexibility of the upper body and trunk are often overlooked parts of a runner's performance plan. Those of us in the know realize how strong, but relatively flexible legs can help our running. However, poor posture and stiffness in the upper body and trunk can translate into decreased breathing/lung capacity, poor core muscle function, and ultimately performance losses below the waist in the legs. With a simple 6 inch foam roller, you can undo much of the damage caused by extended sitting, computer work, and years of slouching. You will be a better looking runner, you will feel better day to day, and you will likely set a PR up your favorite local peak.
