AmazonBasics High-Density Round Foam Roller 36″ vs Stamina Doorway Trainer Plus

My old foam roller started getting squishy after a few years so I needed a new one and got this one cause the size and price were perfect. This foam roller, however, is solid as a rock, like really hard, like it doesn't give at all. Kind of felt like I beat myself up a bit first time I used it, though I'm subsequently getting used to it. I guess the upside it is should last a very long time

so if I had it mounted I've got a gap here on the side I might have to figure out you know how do what to do about that so it doesn't fit my my door d...

I practice Pilates and started having IT band issues in the beginning of August. Painful and uncomfortable as it tightens! If you know you know! Stretching will NOT fix it, but a foam roller sure will. It’s now the end of October. Have only had 4 days and use it 20 mins twice daily

It works, too. Combine it with long walks, some gentle aerobics like t'ai ch'i or yoga, and you have an affordable, decent fitness program.

I worked at a gym and theirs were amazing, this one is a little stiff but it works great for what is needed. I love to roll out before and after workouts to help work the soreness out and stretch my body out. Small enough to take traveling!

I have serious shoulder issues I am rehabbing and this is an important feature for me. Even though I've not been able to use this pullup bar, while assembling it I was impressed enough with its construction that I think it would have worked quite well for my needs if only I didn't live in such a weird house.

Buy if you are like me that are always in pain for workinout a lot or just always doing so much manual labor. Hopefully this review helps others.

Nothing a little elbow grease can't remove, or paint can't cover. I still give this 4 stars despite these drawbacks -- just be smart about how you're using it and keep an eye out for any marks/indentations.

This roller is very firm. There is no give on this. It’s perfect for those extra sore muscles, but be prepared for the pain of the roller. A good pain though

I assume judging my experience with this bar that the sit up utilization should work fine. I also use this for dips. Real dips use your entire body weight, but to correct for this do as many reps as possible. One point of clearificiation for anyone reading this
