our unboxing video of the "roll-on" fascia role
great set with hard and softer fascia role as well as a massager
self massage of aching tension and taped fascia is good and helps quickly and reliably. Physiotherapists use fascia roles long to reach the deep muscle and fascia to stretch and to extract 'stick'. Fascia roles you often only has the problem that the appointed role is too hard, too soft, too thick or too thin. At a set "Roll on" by Sportastisch how does the 3-in-1 set you this as two degrees of hardness plus a massager in it are. Equipped so one has a narrower and softer role and the staff supporting the back massage that you can use the hard role otherwise fine for more sensitive areas like the neck, legs and arms. Also, such a set is much cheaper than if you would buy the products individually. If the quality is right, you almost get a round one Los package. Whether this "roll on" is set, I have tested what it promises, for you through its paces. See all advantages and disadvantages of the set and decide for whether you will do your body a favor.
Packaging and delivery
two business days after the order arrived the fascia roller set with me. The carton is Brown and reveals just who is the manufacturer. The surprise effect is so given. Included were sealed in and plug it together:
- a big hard fascia role
- a softer thinner fascia/massage roller
- a massager/massage roller
- a nylon transport bag
- a service and warranty card
warranty
Sportastisch offers its customers the possibility of a three-year warranty, which is one year longer, as normally common in Germany. To get this extended warranty, you must register with the product within three weeks after the date of purchase on the manufacturer's website. The link is on the supplied service and warranty cards. You do not, the normal warranty period of 24 months applies.
The price
is very cheap with just 48 euros (in March 2017) the fascia roles set by Sportastisch. There are three products in the set, which worth alone already each 30 Euro or more. A carrying case is also.
design and equipment of the set
the three-piece set has already the first surprise, if one takes the roles and the staff on their transport bag. With 48 cm, all parts are quite a bit longer than is usual with fascia roles. Thus, people can handle your stress in one go with extra wide back. But now more about the items:
the black hard hollow core role
with six different surface structures provides the major role of the fascia versatile levels, achieving also the deeper tensions. It is black, completely made of hard plastic material and with the exception of the small manufacturer logo in white. Thanks to a production method called ABS technology, the hollow role remains unaffected up to a weight of 200 kg. The dimensions are: 45 cm long, 14 cm in diameter and a thickness of 2 cm
softer Orange hollow core role
is made and provided with deep grooves, hard foam lighter Orange role for making hot and sensitive areas, for which the hard big role is too intense. You is minimal enough after rubber and fits with its dimensions of 45 cm length, 9.5 cm in diameter and 3 cm thick perfectly in the large.
The role of massage / massage stick
A combination of a hard and a soft fascia role is not unusual to have a rod in self massage here but, is rare. The bar is equipped with four waves knobs in the Middle, Orange and there made of a hard rubber material. Including metal, which you can't see but is likely. The ends are decorated in grey and have a light grey grip made of plastic with knobs that allow a small hand reflexology in addition and give better grip. At one end of the rod is a loop made of black nylon for the suspension. You must not hang but the rod, because he fits the role of Orange and makes the set so the absolute space saver. The length of End of handle to end of the handle is 45 cm, such as in the role with three movable limbs each 5.7 cm long. The diameter of 3.7 cm.Die sports bag to store the set is made of easy-care nylon in tubular form and can also well be used as bag for other purposes. Das schlichte Schwarz wird nur durch ein dezent platziertes kleines weißes Logo unterbrochen.
The free E-book
to the set is there still a free E-book called"FASCIA TRAINING - a miracle of nature". It includes 43 pages and can be downloaded here. You can also find the note to the link on the service and warranty cards. In the first part of the book concerns the scientific and medical background of the fascia and fascia exercise. This chapter is certainly exciting for masseurs and physiotherapists, but not so much for simple citizens. The second part sounds there already more interesting. It's about the fascia training itself. However, the author also here rather confined to the theory than on instructions for the practice. It's a pity really.
Practice test
after I had searched me some training videos on the Internet that the training could begin. With the softer role I loosened up first the muscles, before the hard, black role was used. The Orange massage roll is soft without being too soft and massaged so already just fine all muscle groups and fascia to edit with it. Almost she would have been enough already, but need something more then my back. The black role, striking that she as a medium hardness is declared, but feels much harder. She was not a bit after when I Herum rolled out. It was perfect for my back. Rather, I have edited all other parts of the body with the softer role, because it hurt there with the black. The Massager called massage roller by the manufacturer, is great. I got him for my upper trapezius muscle and my neck black role used for the too big and hard and the Orange was too soft. With selective pressure he rolled through the authorities, for r the roles not just enough work. What is also great, but of course is contrary to the principle of self massage, is it, when a training partner with the stick back or edited the undersides of the thighs.

conclusion
the three-set "roll on" lessons from Sportastisch something does for almost every tense muscle and every bonded fascia. Have an massage ball would be doing, you'd need nothing more. Would you buy individually the parts, you would loose 80 euros or more go, which makes less than 50 euro, which is to have the set of currently (as of March 2017), a great deal. The role of Orange a little smells like rubber, but not mind. It would have been nice if there was the set still in other color combinations, but that really doesn't matter in the function.
