Look at this crazy contraption.

This is Trigger Point Performance Therapy‘s product, The Grid.  And Swim Bike Mom readers can save 10% (details below).

Now, The Grid is not to be confused with the traditional foam roller.  The Grid is the traditional foam roller’s hot, younger sister.

Love at First Lay.  Er, Roll.
The Grid came in the mail about a week ago.

I’ve got all sorts of hip, knee, hammer, and IT band issues stemming from not-so-stellar first triathlon performances, the wearing of way-too-high heels, feats of klutziness and general poor running form. (Oh, and from wearing my fat suit). Okay, so I’m a bit of a mess.  Literally and figuratively.  I’ve been battling these issues for a while.

TP Therapy has helped me tremendously over the last few months, but I was still using the ugly sister foam roller.  So this fancy pants Grid was to be interesting.

I had a massive swim, bike, run workout on Sunday, and I prepped for it Saturday by “rolling” on Friday and Saturday.  The workout on Sunday was the biggest of my life. I walked away sore…but not broken.  And this morning, I had 7 miles of hills in the dark and in the rain, and I felt pretty darn good. That’s a miracle.


Soooooooooo.

A week later, I declare and shout from the rooftops “I love the Grid!” And here’s why.

The Smart Sounding Details:
The Grid uses Myofascial Compression Techniques (MCT).  “MCT is Trigger Point Performance Therapy’s revolutionary form of self myofascial release that systematically restores tissue elasticity, fluidity, and function resulting in pain reduction, injury prevention, and performance enhancement.”

(This is not me.  I wish.)

  1. I love my Grid. Worth every penny. Plus it does not break down like a regular foam roller. I've had mine almost a year and it looks the same!
