What Other People Say About the RumbleRoller

RumbleRoller Feedback

"We instruct coaches and athletes in the Alexander Method of Self-Myofascial Release (SMR). They love the Rumble Roller for the ease of use and effective self-care that is possible. With so many Self-Myofascial Release products on the market, the Rumble Roller is like having several products in one. Hands-down, it is an essential part of a SMR tool kit."
Jeff Alexander, Founder, Network Fitness


"As a specialist in pain management & rehab medicine, an expert in traditional Chinese medicine, and an international lecturer on functional movement strength & conditioning, I've seen no shortage of pain relief devices come across my path and my desk. While it can be said that many such devices are helpful if used within the proper context, I've seen very few devices or training tools that impressed me nearly as much as the Rumble Roller."

"When I first saw the Rumble Roller on OPTP.com, the device looked downright medieval and too painful to apply for self-myofascial release (SMFR) protocols. Yet, upon trying it, I was pleasantly surprised at how the rubber nubs felt more like the fingers of a trained soft-tissue therapist - not too rigid to be uncomfortable, and not too soft to lack effectiveness. The staggered layout of the nubs allow for side-to-side rolling to be more effective as well. Instead of being limited to a long-axis rolling application, the Rumble Roller allows for tremendous therapeutic benefit for areas that are usually too delicate or too narrow to access with a traditional roller."

"I have introduced the Rumble Roller to clients, colleagues, students, and patients across the world to great acclaim and look forward to seeing it more widely distributed internationally in the years to come!"
Dr. Mark Cheng, L.Ac., Ph.D., FMS, RKC TL, Chief Instructor - Kettlebells of Los Angeles, Clinic Director - Chung Hua Institute


"We have been using the large blue rumble roller for over a year now with our athletes.  We also have over 20 different foam rollers of varying density and sizes.  Every athlete that uses the rumble roller for the first time immediately notices that it has a much different end result than other rollers on the market.  When athletes come in the gym, they immediately walk by the other rollers and grab the Rumble roller..it is especially versatile and even works well with the larger, more muscular athletes -- more so than any other roller.  We use it often and highly recommend that every gym should have at least 1."
Jeremy S. Hoy, MS, CSCS, PES, USAW, Director of Physical Preparation, Finish First Sports Performance


"It's been pretty popular with our athletes and staff."
Eric Cressey, MA, CSCS, President and Co-founder, Cressey Performance


"One of the best investments I made in the last couple of years - the Rumble Roller. I haven't had any soft tissue injuries at all no matter how hard I train, and I believe this tool is a big reason why."
John Meadows, CSCS, CISSN, Founder, Mountain Dog Diet


"I just got my Rumble Roller today and I love it. I like it much more than traditional foam rollers for SMR purposes."
Bret Contreras, CSCS, a.k.a. The Glute Guy


"I have just purchased your product and am in love with it!  I have used foam rollers for over ten years and have never had such a great response from one. The design is brilliant, the material is brilliant and the final product works like magic!"
Mark Reifkind, Master RKC Instructor, Girya Kettlebell Training


"YOU'RE SO RIGHT about it obliterating the QL's -- I have a 'spot' on the right side that it hits hard - GREAT!"
Tom Seabourne, Ph.D., Professor of Exercise Science


"I just received the Rumble Roller, did a session with it, and compared to the foam rollers I've used, including the new textured roller by Trigger Point...I LOVE the Rumble Roller."
Ben Greenfield, CSCS, 2008 Personal Trainer of the Year


"It's a great product."
Mary Thode, DPT, Founder, Vertex Physical Therapy


"I found it very helpful for my lower and upper back, it hits a few spots that the normal foam roller cannot contact. It was SO tough on my IT bands so I'll have to work into that one."
Callie Durbrow, CSCS*D, USAW Sports Performance Coach


"The Rumble Roller is awesome for this and by far the best type of roller I've ever used."
Dave Tate, Founder and CEO, Elite Fitness Systems


"I am a huge fan and several of my friends have purchased the roller also.  I have some significant SI, back, hamstring issues - and currently use both a tennis and softball, but once you've rumbled, its just not the same."
Donna Rice, triathlete


"The rumble roller is one of the best investments for my back I have made. The quality & feel is un-matched!"
Greg Zook, Owner, Zook Studios


"I've had good feedback from guys that have used it within the training centre where I work. The majority of guys like it and use it as an alternative to the regular roll."
Dr. Ryan J. Hoover, BSc, DC, CSCS, ART Provider, Back & Body Health


"I've been using a foam roller to roll out my back, IT bands, calves, and just about every part of my body after a solid CrossFit workout but nothing has compared to this. My CrossFit gym has been carrying this for a short while now and I think it's one of the most effective rollers out there... it hurts like hell to roll on it but works like magic. I ran just over 6000m of hill repeats the other day and my knees were killing me. I knew if I didn't do something I'd be crippled for a few days and the eccentric load on the joints was a bit much. Paul, the owner of CF Colosseum suggested I try this roller... so I did. No pain the next day! My knees felt great!!"
Joanna Zdrojewska, personal trainer


"Good for the quads and ITB and Thoracic spine."
Scott van Niekerk, PT, Wholistic Physical Therapy


"Yes, I know it looks like a torture device. But just find one and lie on it. Your body will thank you."
Jennifer Stahl, Editor, Pointe Magazine


"Awesome."

How To Maximize The Benefits Of Stretching

RumbleRoller for Recovery and Injury Prevention

"Every athlete envisions days of stardom and brilliance, days where all the hard work and fortitude finally piece together to fruition. Ask any athlete the key to physical success and the answer's almost guaranteed to be 'hard work'. The question has almost become rhetorical because even the upper echelon athletes stand by such a verdict and little else. Unfortunately, your body can only be pushed to its limits for oh so long."

"Injury is often the byproduct of 'hard work' gone unchecked. Yes, checked. What athletes fail to fathom is that the role of recovery is just as important as the role of training. You break your muscles down then you rebuild. It's a simple process that becomes increasingly complex when you add nasty variables like adhesions and trigger points to the mix. Without proper recovery protocol, performance-inhibiting lesions develop within the musculature. These barriers impede proper blood flow and contractile ability causing the muscles to fatigue quicker, recover slower and just plain perform worse. You know the best option is a deep tissue massage to work the knots out. But if you plan on working hard every day how can you afford such a procedure daily? Thankfully, that's where the Rumble Roller comes into the equation."

"The Rumble Roller is a foam roller with a demonic appearance like that of a torture device. It has many little raised 'bumps' along its surface that makes rolling look dreadfully uninviting. In fact, it most resembles the design of a muscle recovery product called the Muscletrac, albeit on steroids. I had been looking for a long time for a foam rolling product with that 'penetrative bump' design and I had finally found it. The problem with most stick rollers is their limited use. Upper body exercises with them for self myofascial release plain and simply sucks. You can't efficiently target the lumbar region, the lats, the neck, the traps or anywhere effectively for that matter."

"As an elite track and field sprinter I came in with the knowledge that all your muscles work together as a whole system. Biomechanically, if one part failed then another part (muscle) would compensate for that one's short-givings and then that particular muscle would become overworked and another would have to overcompensate. This chain reaction would happen gradually if recovery was overlooked; it would creep up on the athlete until injury ultimately occurred."

"That is why even utilizing the best 'stick roller' products I still felt them vastly inadequate in my endeavors for full body recovery. The Rumble Roller has successfully satisfied that aim and has become the foundation for my recovery efforts. I can effectively target and isolate any part of my body that I want. It works magic for hip flexor tightness, especially for the gluteus medius which chronically gets tight and has the hamstrings overcompensating for it (hint: That's probably the reason your hamstring is tight!)"

"I worked my lats for the first time with this by rolling underneath my armpits and was surprised as to how tender the muscle was and how trigger point riddled they had become due to years of neglect. Even my pecs (yes I rolled those too) were astonishingly painful as well as my lower back. The bumps are rigid enough to dig deep into the meat of the muscle and seem to erase the pain felt in just moments. The addition of the technique of 'rocking' side to side adds a whole dimension of agonizing goodness to the mix. Much like cross fiber friction massage this technique really gets in deep and erodes those knots that an 'up and down' motion can't fix. It's painful... very painful, but once you do it a few times it becomes your favorite part of the day. It's almost too easy to get carried away because the results are so amazing. I spend AT LEAST an hour rocking and rolling away every other day just to make sure my muscles are clean and knot free. The threat of injury has become laughable now, even in a high risk event such as sprinting."

"I no longer feel heavy or tight anymore. Ever. Even with the stick roller products I would get tight. It seemed like they were more for treatment and never prevention because they simply could not get to those other muscles to fix my biomechanics."

"There are few things that can triumph over this product in terms of aiding in physical endeavors. It seriously kicks any recovery supplements butt despite being a totally different category of aid. You can feel free to push it in practice knowing Rumble Roller is always there to help you recover AND prevent injury. That's just something a recovery mix can't do. Instead of spending money on powders or pills promising insane recovery acceleration, spend it on something that actually works first."

"I have heard comments about how this product is better than a professional massage. Sure I've gotten them before, deep tissue and the works. The comparison between self myofascial release with the Rumble Roller and professional massage is laughable though. This thing could put masseurs out of business easy. The paramount reason being is that it's YOU who's giving yourself the massage... You know where it hurts and you can feel the trigger points and knots a heck of a lot better than any therapist. It helps that it's a one-time purchase as well. Did I mention that the Rumble Roller is one hell of a sturdy product? It can handle a lot of weight, much more than conventional foam rollers and it doesn't lose its shape or hardness."

"In short, I am in love with this product. I was always a believer when I first laid eyes on it. I have the Muscletrac and that had been my pride and joy for quite some time. The Rumble Roller is like the big brother of that-hell-the Dad. It has almost rendered it-and all other stick roller products-obsolete, the only advantage being their portability. Regardless, I wouldn't hesitate to try and stuff this in my bag during any travels I may take."

"I believe with this product... STI has created an inexpensive tool that brings the benefits of professional massage to the average athlete without compromise. If everyone were educated on myofascial release and its effects governing biomechanics, then there would be a phenomenal drop in injuries... because everyone would have the Rumble Roller. It is truly something that no serious athlete should be without."

"All massage products are rated in comparison to a professional massage. If there was a score higher than a 10 then the Rumble Roller would get it."

Darrell Wesh, HS National Champion at 60m, Gatorade 2010 VA Athlete of the Year, D1 Track and Field Athlete

Edge the Weimaraner on the RumbleRoller

"I thought I would share this with you. My dog is an athlete (hunting, agility, rally obedience, etc.) and he is used to his regular chiro adjustments and massages.  He is very good at knowing what he needs. Well, he has been watching me use the rumble roller and we had a long day at a trial this weekend and when I used it, he decided to join me. I thought it was so cute I went to get the camera and he stayed on it. He knew it would help him! He actually stayed on it for quite awhile."

Additional RumbleRoller Reviews

American Council on Exercise (ACE)  > Editors Review: RumbleRoller

Editor's rating: 5/5 stars
"All models of the RumbleRoller were very easy to use as they rolled well and had a good surface for massaging the muscle tissue. We found the blue model a good density for most people and the black model useful for someone with deep tissue soreness and adhesions."  more...

JP Fitness Forums > Super Foam Roller... Or Super Waste of Money?

"If I were in charge of their marketing and website, I would advertise how INCREDIBLY effective the RumbleRoller is at fixing tight hip flexors. It took me only 1–2 weeks of daily usage to finally, finally, finally loosen them up, and for me, that is worth the price of this product alone."  more...

JP Fitness Forums > I <3 my rumble roller

"Its a roller with spikes on it and it is way better than a regular foam roller - gets to the muscle easier and gets rid of the knott/tenderness/achyness/burn (whatever you want to call it)."  more...

Life Out of the Box > Muscle Tissue Lovin'

"I ordered one recently and it is fabulous! The day I got it, I used it on my calves. Normally with foam rolling, it feels like the knot in my calf is just getting moved around and not broken down like it needs to be. The lacrosse ball works, but takes a while due to the small surface area. The Rumble Roller worked perfectly. It felt like I was simultaneously rolling 4 lacrosse balls on my calf."  more...

Dragon Door Forum > Tight IT bands when squating

"This roller is fundamentally different. It is not just more 'painful' but moves the muscles/fascia around in a much differerent way. it's the difference between an forearm slide and a thumb during a deep tissue massage. the knobs manipulate the tissue in a completely unique way."  more...

Dragon Door Forum > Hip flexor problem... Pavel?

"I just got a Blue RumbleRoller. It's hard to describe just how awesome this thing is. It's like starting foam rolling all over again."  more...

Carter Irvin Fitness > Sore Muscles?

"I have only used two sessions on this roller.  Neither of which have gone over 10 minutes.  In both sessions I was able to release so many knots (most of which I did not know I had!).  In short, I was AMAZED!"  more...

Zach Dechant Sports Performance Training > Rumble Roller

"The first time I used the rumble roller I was a little disappointed.  I’m used to using a 4" round PVC pipe for my soft tissue work and the rumble roller just felt too soft.  It seemed like I was taking a step back to a softer material.  But after a few weeks of work with the roller I quickly realized this wasn’t the case at all."  more...

WOD Almighty > Recovery Pt. II: Foam Rolling

"The Rumble Roller is absolutely no joke. This thing is insane. It's basically a firm foam roller with hard little nubs surrounding it. The nubs provide an advanced level of kneading and pulling as you roll, and at first I was in absolute agony using this thing. But over time, just like with it's traditional predecessor, the Rumble Roller has now become pretty standard during my evening recovery exercises."  more...

Bicycling Magazine Gear & Bike Review  > RumbleRoller

"The experience is intense. When the roller came into my office (blue, original density), I immediately plopped my IT band down on it and proceeded to roll away with all my weight and nearly hit the ceiling. I backed off a bit and was still undecided if I liked this rough new 'masseuse.' Then I rolled on my back and was sold. It worked out all my hard to hit kinks with just three or four rolls. I felt better immediately."  more...

Athlete Treating Athletes > RumbleRoller Review

"The knobs themselves are soft so you don’t have to worry about hitting bone and they are positioned so that they build on each other. As you roll over one, it provides a stretch to the muscle so that the next knob can sink in deeper."  more...

Recover Your Stride > What is a Physiatrist???

"I have used many different types of foam rollers, but I think I have found that best foam roller ever made. I have been using this for two weeks and it is quite a monster and can hit muscles in ways that a traditional foam roller cannot and it feels better than it looks as it can really isolate tight spots and trigger points."  more...

Kill Fat Me > Hitting Deep Muscle Pain and Tightness with the RumbleRoller

"I've had a hard time finding a massage therapist that can give me a hard enough massage to really work the tight spots in my Scapular and Trapezius muscles. I've only been using the RumbleRoller for about 24 hours, but already I can feel how well it works. It is certainly a lot more painful than my other foam roller, which will take some getting used to. But wow, my shoulders feel so much better after rolling on it."  more...

The Body Forge > Rumble Roller Review

"I hate these things. And by hate I mean they are probably one of the smartest (albeit slightly expensive) purchases I have made all year. The Rumble Roller offers something the standard foam roll, pipe, ball, whatever can not offer - small nubs that will actually dig into soft tissue to help further remove knots and loosen up tight muscles."  more...

Monster vs Beast > And on the seventh day, there was rest...

"This thing is amazing once you get past the ridiculous amount of pain you experience due to muscle tightness when you first start using it. After my marathon, I had some IT Band issues that caused knee pain and I ended up in physical therapy because of it. I've been using the Rumble Roller faithfully ever since and haven't run into any further issues."  more...

Dr. TriRunner > Tried it Tuesday // How do you ROLL?

"Not for the faint of heart – the surface of this bad boy will work you over like a physical therapist… with a desire to make you squirm."  more...

Detroit Runner > RumbleRoller foam roller review

"The RumbleRoller was a HUGE surprise for me in my testing. Given that I have used a foam roller in the past, I thought there might be a small difference between what I use today and the RumbleRoller. WOW, was I wrong!!!! The deepness that this gives you is like nothing else I have used."  more...

The Insaniac > P90X2 Recovery + Mobility

"I have had a horribly tight groin (just in my right leg for some odd reason) and spent extra time stretching it everyday before and after my Insanity/Asylum/P90X workouts for the last year, and it's never gone away. However, after one session with the Rumble Roller, my groin is no longer tight. It completely released the excess tension in a single session."  more...

Traveling Workout > RumbleRoller

"It hurts like heck. But it's one of those things that hurts and is uncomfortable at first, but you come out of it feeling soooo much better, so much more loose, so much more open and flexible. And I can't say this enough, RumbleRoller, RumbleRoller, RumbleRoller. If you are looking for an excuse to get the P90X2 Ultimate Package, this is it!"  more...

"I can see how the rumble will help with all forms of fitness, not just in P90X2 but also with my cycling. You know those sore muscles we get after a long ride will feel right as rain after a run through for 30 minutes with this beast. There's not a spot on your body that this thing can't seem to make feel better after rolling on it for a few minutes. I see a lot of rolling around on the floor in my future."  more...

TeamCorpsFitness > Rumble Roller - It hurts so good!

"In the evening, when my back is hurting, I simply get on the floor with the rumble roller and use the power of gravity and my own weight to kneed out my tightest knots and sorest muscles.

The Cellulite Investigation > Do Foam Rollers Work on Cellulite?

"I am now officially addicted to the Rumble Roller.  I honestly cannot tell you if it does a thing for cellulite because I've used it solely to target The Knot every day since I discovered the standing technique.  I'll move on to the legs eventually, but the Rumble Roller has already paid for itself as far as I'm concerned.  It's even better than most of the professional massages I've experienced."  more...

The Cellulite Investigation > The Poor Man's Massage

"In the initial review of my new RumbleRoller, I made the statement that using a foam roller 'is even better than most of the professional massages I've experienced' (at least when it comes to the actual massaging action - I still miss the instant relaxation that comes with the spa atmosphere).  I've been using my foam roller consistently for a month now, and I stand by that original claim."  more...

"I spent about an hour with it the first night I got it, and holy cow, it's the greatest self treatment tool I've ever used. Painful, but excellent. My calves have not been so loose since I was a kid, my right forearm which had a suspicious tingle I thought was the start of carpal tunnel is gone, my quads are looser, and so on. I use it on traps, neck, lats, and even arms which are surprisingly sore. After using it, my deadlift went up by 20 lbs, just like that..."  more...

Breaking Muscle > Product Review: Rumble Roller

"While the knobs take a little getting used to, they do seem to provide added benefit. The ease with which I can clean the roller and its durability are also big plusses in my book. Overall, if you're looking to upgrade your roller, the Rumble Roller is the way to go."  more...

Studio Veena Forum > Rumble Roller

"This thing is heaven! It is a roller studded with little 'thumb-like' protrusions that work the fascia and release it like nothing I've ever felt. It's not for the faint of heart. But if you've worked up to the black foam roller, you can definitely handle this one. Love it!!"  more...

BodyBuilding.com Forum > Which RumbleRoller should I get?

"My recommendation would be to buy both. Initially you use both of them (one on the lower back and one on the upper back) at the same time. It is less painfull when your weight is distributed over two rollers rather than one. You can then up the intensity by swapping them so that the stiffer one is under the area you are focusing on"  more...

"When you first start using it, you may feel as if you have no idea what you’re doing, that's how I felt, but as I continued to use it I was able to find those knots and feel when they released. You will really feel good after using the Rumble Roller, and you'll find that you're more flexible."  more...

Bradley Stroberg > Self Inflicted

"Using your body weight to help hard bumps push into your muscles isn't exactly fun but the results are immediate. Definitely saves on those massage bills if you can inflict that pain on yourself day after day."  more...

 I have been 'rolling' on the knot and I let the Rumble Roller really get into my trigger points, and the relief is amazing to say the least."  more...

Girl Heroes > Rock'n and Roll'n with the Rumble Roller: A Review

"Before using the Rumble Roller I was using a conventional smooth roller. It was serving its purpose but it seemed like no matter how much I used it (along with mobility drills) my achey hamstring (I pulled one of my hamstrings when I was doing taekwondo) would not stop acting up. I've been using the Rumble Roller for over a month now and, I kid you not, the pain in my my hamstring has all but disappeared."  more...

John Phung > Black Rumble Roller Review

"I find that my mobility is increased after rolling my back, IT band, quads, adductors and whatever muscles I’m forgetting. I can squat deeper without any aches if I do some foam rolling before touching a barbell. The Rumble Roller has now become an essential tool for my warm ups."  more...

Born to Plod > The Beast

"If used correctly, a normal foam roller will cause a fair bit of discomfort, with a wince-factor similar to having your nostril hairs plucked out by a stout Dutch milkmaid. The Rumble Roller is a different beast entirely though. The very moment I started using it, I knew that this was going to be a love/hate relationship the like of which the world has never seen."  more...

Home-Gym-Bodybuilding > Rumble Roller Review

"After using my rumble roller (small, black 36% firmer) I can say my doms is almost completely gone the next day after a leg workout. I now finish every workout by taking only five minutes to message the muscle I worked. THE RUMBLE ROLLER IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AND BETTER THAN ANY SUPPLEMENT I HAVE EVER TAKEN FOR RECOVERY!"  more...

Nick Momrk > Rumble Roll

"It's the best purchase I've made in a long time. I've been rolling several times a day since I got it and it's making a big difference in my recovery and how sore I get.  I went with a 30" for about $70 but may also pick up a small one for traveling. It's that good!"  more...

HOWtoBEAST > Review: RumbleRoller

"The thing is awesome. I have gone from rolling just my lower back every few days to rolling my hamstrings, calves, glutes, hips, quads, IT band, lower, middle, and upper back every night. I feel like straight sex afterwards. Days following a leg workout, forget about it: the glutes and IT band are unreal. Back is satisfying every time."  more...

Put Yourself First > Massage Anywhere with the Rumble Roller

"The first 'hot spot' I came across was in my calves and oh my gosh, I felt it. I wanted to quickly gloss over the pain and move to a more comfortable spot. Still, that would defeat the purpose of the 'release.' So I stuck it out. Eventually the muscle or tension would release and feel better. Just like when you get a massage. It temporarily hurts and then it feels better."  more...

BrinkZone > Your Foam Roller on Steroids

"Personally, I prefer the standard (blue) firmness Rumble Roller. Highly recommended if you already use foam rollers, not recommended for those new to foam rolling for soft tissue/SMFR work as the Rumble Roller is very aggressive."  more...

Luuux > Zeus > Rolling your way back to health!

"The big massive black roller with the knobs sticking out of it was exactly what I needed. After a few sessions of maintenance with the Rumble Roller, all my tightness went away. The knobs on the roller did an amazing job of putting pressure deep into the muscles and help disperse deeply embedded knots."  more...

Mom So Hard University > Review: RumbleRoller

"It hurts SO good. I'm serious. When you use this thing, just prepare anyone in your house that you will be making bizarre, guttural, animal noises. I didn't realize how much my calves had been bothering me until after my first session with RumbleRoller. Because they felt sooo much better when I was done. All of the leg rolling I do now with RumbleRoller is pure owie-in-a-good-way bliss."  more...

The Rx Review > Review: RumbleRoller Massage Device

"I train a lot and run into the same problems everyone else does with knots and tightness, especially in my upper back. I have found using the rumble roller on my back helps a lot to keep that area less tense. I find myself using the rumble roller every other day now – because it works!"  more...

Amazon.com > Customer Reviews

"I had resorted to using PVC in place of a standard foam roller, because the foam ones just didn't get in deep enough. The Rumble Roller finds those knots and applies the right amount of pressure without making you want to pull away."  more...

Elite Fitness Systems > User Feedback

"It has just the right amount of firmness, and the 'bump' really dig deep in the tissues. I have tried a PVC pipe, but it really seems to run into my bones in some areas. Also, because it has no give, doesn't spread around the muscles well. The RR seems to solve those issues, and is really a great addition for someone who is looking for the 'next' level of rolling to get deep into the muscles."  more...

Runners Roost Blog > Gear: The RumbleRoller

"Surprisingly, the pain isn’t as bad as you’d expect. It definitely has a bit more ‘bite’ than an all-foam roller or even a Trigger Point, but the biggest difference isn’t in the level of pain – it’s in the placement of the pain. On a Trigger Point, the sensation usually feels fairly close to the surface of the area being massaged. With the RumbleRoller, I feel a deeper, more complete sensation."  more...

"If you have the slightest bit of tightness in your muscles or connective tissue, the Rumble Roller will kindly highlight it for you. And yes, it hurts, but it's ultimately doing you a favor. It's loosening you up and smoothing out your fascia so that real trauma – the career-ending, surgery-requiring, joint-destroying kind – can be averted."  more...
