Mobilize the Chest on Foam Roller6 minutes and 18 seconds
Using a long foam roller (3 foot) learn how to mobilize the chest and thoracic spine. If you sit in a chair, work on a computer, watch TV or train your chest really hard, this is one of the best exercises to open up the upper ribs and chest. We need good mobility in our upper body in order to breath properly and move with function.
