Quadriceps-SMR

Use a foam roller to relieve tight quads and enhance recovery.

Foam rolling the quads is a simple way to release tension and improve flexibility. This SMR technique is great for warm-ups, cooldowns, or recovery days. At FitnessTracker, we recommend this to support healthy movement and reduce soreness from training.

Instructions

  1. Lie face down and place a foam roller under one thigh.
  2. Support your upper body with your forearms and lift the leg off the floor.
  3. Slowly roll from just above the knee to just below the hip.
  4. Pause for 10–30 seconds on any tight or sore spots.
  5. Switch sides and repeat as needed.
