what do you use them for? post workout stretching? ie you literally just roll around on them?

benefits?
It is good for tight areas, or areas where you are prone to injuring/imbalances. very good for the back, rotators, hips, IT bands etc... it basically acts as a self massager to increase blood flow in the area that is problematic, and "kneed" out the muscle to say the least. I usually find it most beneficial pre stretching.

Have you tried the travel roller? I find the trigger point one not hard enough... And the different sections somewhat gimmicky.

^rolling off your muscle fibers helps release built up tension and also relaxes the fascia surrounding the muscle. It's awesome for post-workout and essentially, you want to make sure you're applying enough pressure onto the muscle as you're rolling it so that you're

Great places to use the roller for: hip flexor muscles, calf muscles, quads, hamstrings,forearms.
