Feeling much better!!
Thank you Rachel, I appreciate your comment 👍🏻 glad you feel better after this 😊
Did this the day after a big hike and it was absolutely glorious for my sore muscles. I've recently found your channel, and am finding so much use from your videos. Thanks so much for the video, Ash!
You're so welcome! Many thanks for your comment I really appreciate it 🙏 welcome to my TH-cam community 😊
Those two extra minutes are totally worth it 😌 cheers!
Cheers to you too Thomas for your comments and feedback so regularly, I really appreciate it 🙏😊
Really like this one Ash, it’s exam season, less time to run but not less stretching 💪🏼
Glad you liked it Andrea 👍 thank you for commenting and good luck with exam season 😊
This is just what I needed today, stumbled onto your channel looking for a quick foam roll. I am turning over a new leaf starting this past year and getting better about maintenance and injury prevention, so I will subscribe and come back! Really good guidance, simple, kind, effective.
I really appreciate your kind words! Many thanks for that 👍🏻 welcome to my TH-cam community 😊
Great video! On my run today I could feel my hamstrings were tight and thought a good foam roll would help, and I remembered you had a foam rolling video. Feels so much better already and seems my quads were also VERY tight! Thanks for the video!
Thanks too Tiffany! Glad I could help you with this one 😊 well done for giving your body the care it deserves.
Great the way you’ve helped me work through using the roller, easier than I thought, and very affective.
Double session with me Andrea, well done 🙌🏻 glad I could help you recover after the stability session 😊
Thanks Ash! I didn’t have a good run today because I was noticing some twinges and soreness so I hope adding this to my training will help 🤞
Well done for giving your body some TLC after noticing the twinges. Hope they are ok 🤞
Ash, that was super. More like this, please. I liked manual massage part, esp.
Aww thank you so much as always Catherine. So glad you enjoyed this different style of video to the usual stretches. I will look to add more of these type of recovery sessions in too 👍🏻 have a great weekend 😊🙏
Mate your videos are awesome. I’m currently coming back from injury and these are amazing. Came back from my run today and my calves were solid - I really needed this video - and i can walk again. Also love your demeanour, attitude and accent lol and i love that you explain why we do these things. Ive done loads of your videos (and now you’ve explained why, I’ll remember to hit the like button). Keep it up and all my thanks - you’re keeping me running!!
Oh wow!! Thats amazing to read Heather, thank you so much for taking the time to write that, it always gives me a little boost when I read how much my videos are helping people. I'm so glad I am able to help you come back from injury! Lots more to come to help you get back to running injury free, well done for being consistent with this type of recovery work 🙌😀
Ash, as always, helpful ways to recover after running. After this session, I felt a great relaxation of my muscles, as if my muscles were refreshed. I used a roller before, but for too short a time in one position. Very useful tips. Have a beautiful day to you❤
Thank you so much for your kind words of support Anna, I’m very grateful for your comments 🙏 have a beautiful day too ❤️😊
Thanks for that quick and effective routine 🙌
Glad you enjoyed this session with me! I appreciate your comment, thank you 🙏😊
Perfectly timed video, thank you
Glad it was helpful Jessica, well done for caring for your body with this 🙌🏻😊
Absolutely loved it! Ty Ash
Glad you enjoyed this different session Ron 😊 thank you as always 🙏
Hi, Ash, I just wanted to say a big thank you for this great video - tomorrow I am running my first 16 km-race, and as part of taking care of my body, I’ve just done some foam rolling with you.☺️ I’m feelig truly refreshed, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed this foam roll session! Thanks for following along with me and commenting. Good luck with the 16k race tomorrow!! Have a great weekend 🙌🏻😊
Thanks Ash! I recently started my half training and always make sure to warm up and recover with your videos😃😃
You're so welcome Sheena! thanks for stretching with me before and after each run you do and commenting 🙏😊
Thanks Ash ❤
You're so welcome! Many thanks for your comment 👍🏻😊❤️
Thanks for the video! Small tip for the people who find it hard to massage their quads, you can buy a massage stick online that you can roll over your muscle, that really helped me :D
It’s so great to see you in the comments always Roderick😊 thank you for your excellent tip!! I’m glad I can help you recover with this one 🙌🏻
Thank you, Ash! I needed this!
You're so welcome, I’m glad you enjoyed this foam roll with me😊 thanks for commenting 🙏
Thanks! That felt good. Now gonna do one of your stretch videos 🧘🏻
Well done for caring for your body with these two videos 🙌🏻😊
Thanks Ash, another great video. Have done a 10 mile rainy run today with your 12 minute long run warm up, 16 minute stretch and a foam roller session. The run seemed tough today 😮
Fantastic Karen, you should get a super Ash badge for doing all the sessions with me 🤣 thank you! Sometimes we get those runs when it’s a bit tougher, can be weather, food, sleep, stress etc. it makes the more enjoyable ones better doesn’t it 👍🏻😊
Very nice little routine, thanks !
Thank you for following along with me and commenting as always Genevieve🙏😊
Loved it!
Thanks Camilla 🙏 I’m so glad you loved this and it helped you as always 😊
I value the shorter videos so I have no excuse to skip the stretch. There’s always time! Thanks for the video Ash.
That’s great to hear Alicia 😊 so glad I could help you not skip the stretch, thanks for stretching with me and commenting as always🙏🙌🏻
Magic thanks... this and the hamstrings video you did have eased my moderate agony :)
😂 that’s great to hear Robert! So glad I could help ease your hamstrings. Thanks for commenting 👍🏻😊
I just got a foam roller from Offer Up for $15 today! I’ve always wanted to learn how to use these things, my legs feel refreshed and appreciated!
Fantastic, that’s so good to hear Tony and so good to see you in the comments as always 👍🏻😊 have a great weekend!
This is brilliant Ash I've got a foam roller but was never sure if I waa using it properly. Its really helped to ease my sore calf and hamstrings after a 10 mile walk on Thursday thanks very much!
That’s so good to hear Tracy, I’m glad I could help you know how to use it effectively and ease your calves after the 10 mile walk, well done on that 🙌🏻😊
Thanks Ash, I just kept going and focusing on foam rolling my quads, IT band and glutes
Great idea Liza. I wanted to do a shorter foam roll session first to test if people found this useful and then will do a slightly more in-depth one if it is a popular type of video 👍🏻😊
@@RunBetterwithAsh absolutely, I totally get it, surprisingly I just got carried away
I've been following the routines in your videos after each of my runs, and they've significantly aided in my recovery process. In this video , the two-minute self-massage technique is straightforward yet remarkably effective in alleviating my knee pain for me . Thanks Ash
Amazing, that’s so great to hear Sashen!! So glad my videos are helping your recovery and you enjoyed the self-massage. It really does make a difference doesn’t it! Thanks too for commenting to let me know 🙏😊
Finally, I am making good use of my foam roller. I feel like having a quick foot massage which freshens up my day. Thank you Ash !
Glad you liked this one Ernestina 😊 so good to see you coming back to my videos so regularly, glad I could help you make use of your foam roller 🙌🏻
Thanks for the video Ash 👍
You're so welcome Julia 😊 I appreciate you commenting, thanks to you too🙌🏻

Thanks for this great info Ash!
Glad it was helpful Annika, I appreciate you following along with me and taking the time to comment! 🙏😀
This broke up my tight calves and leg muscles, I think I'll be ready for tomorrow's Speed Tempo Run because of it. AGAIN... THANK YOU SO MUCH ASH!!!
That’s so great to hear this helped your right calves. Thank you as always for your support and kindness in the comments 🙏😊
Thanks, Ash! My daughter bought me a foam roller almost three years ago and today was the first day I really used it and knew what to do with it 😊
That is awesome Jeff! So glad I could help you finally learn how to use the foam roller 👍🏻😊
Thanks Ash. I’ve stared running hills. Needles to say how helpful your video was tonight. Love the variety, they never get boring. ❤
You're so welcome Catherine, I’m so glad I could help you have a good stretch and you enjoy my videos 😊 thanks for commenting to let me know you love the variety🙏❤️
Thanks ash.
Any time Terry, thanks too 👍🏻
Love this!
Thanks Toni 🙏😊
Thanks for the video!❤
You're very welcome as always 😊 I appreciate all your comments ❤️
Thanks Ashe! The roller and those last 2 min to focus on quads were excellent
Glad you liked this one and the quad massage was enjoyable 😊 so good to see you coming back to my videos so regularly 🙌🏻
Lifesaver 🙏🏼
Ah ace thank you, so glad I can help your recovery 👍🏻😊
I don't remember if I commented but I did this one after my 10 km run last saturday and it was so good! Finally good use for my foam roller. My legs felt so much better immediately and less muscle aches in the days after! 🎉
Thank you so much for taking the time to come back and leave a comment on it, seen you 3 times today!! 👍🏻👍🏻😊
Please do a combined video with foam rolling + stretching. Thank you for helping me so much Ash!
Sure thing Cam! Thank you too, I’m glad you enjoyed this recovery with me, I appreciate your comments 😊🙌🏻
felt good to foam roll. I didn’t realize I was foam rolling to aggressively before! thanks for the video
I’m so glad I was able to help you have a kind foam rolling session this time 😂 thanks as always for your comments 🙏😊
Brillant-. thanks Ash! I don't comment every day but I definitely do your stretches on the daily! :)
Thanks Nelly, it’s so good to see that you’re still stretching with me so regularly 😊
Great Video, Thanks!
You're welcome! Thank you for commenting 🙏😊
Thanks for this video! :))
You’re so welcome, thank you too for commenting 🙏😊
I have a plan for my running, but no idea how to warm up and recover. Thank you for your guidance Ash!
You're so welcome! Thank you too. I appreciate your comment 😊
Thanks Ash
No problem Finn, glad I could help you recover well 👍🏻😊
Yes Ash!! Just what I’ve been looking for!
Brilliant, thanks Emily! So glad this was just what you was looking for 🙌🏻😊
Great video, more foam roller ones please. I bought a foam roller a while back but never really know what to do with it so good to have some guidance
Glad you liked this foam roll session with me, thanks for commenting 🙏😊will add some more of these for sure 👍🏻
@@RunBetterwithAsh thank you! It was great, my foam roller has spent more time as a doorstop to be honest 🤣🤣
Thank you this was really helpful
Thank you I appreciate your comments as always 🙏
Thanks Ash! New runner here, been training for 2 months. I just did my first 14km race (City2Surf in Sydney, Australia) yesterday and my hips and quads are incredibly sore! Should I continue to do this daily if I’m running 3 times a week? I always do your warm up stretches and post run stretches for my shorter training sessions throughout the week, I’m just surprised how sore I became after my first “long” run. Thanks again!
That’s a great long run considering you’re a new runner, well done! There’s no wonder you’re sore after it. Yes I would do the foam roll 3 times a week that’s great idea 👍🏻 greetings to Sydney from England 👋😊
Awesome cool down! Thank you 😊
Aww thank you as always Toni 🙏 I appreciate your feedback on this one 😊
Thanks again ❤
Always welcome Gary ❤️
Nice addition to your series. One question... when would you recommend doing a foam roll vs. a dynamic stretch vs a static stretch? Perhaps this I better answered in a Q & A video.
Absolutely Kevin, I will answer this one in the next Q&A for you. It will be 4/5 weeks as I am way ahead on my scheduling. Have a great weekend 👍
Thanks! My calves be ACHING after this 😂 but I know it's doing me good!
You’re so welcome as always Alex, I really appreciate your support in the comments 🙏 hope your calves are ok 😂👍🏻
Hi Ash, could you make a video on leg massages to do at home in addition to stretching and rolling to really help with recovery and injury prevention? I see you have one for feet, but it would be helpful to have one for calves, hams, and quads. Keep up the amazing videos!
Hi Karsen, absolutely! I can do one of those massage type videos for those muscles. I appreciate your comments as always 👍😀
@@RunBetterwithAsh Thank you! Very appreciative of your quick responses!
This is good to have to follow along. I can spend so much time foam rolling. It is my go to morning run warm up.
I find my hamstring guards so it can be hard to relax while getting pressure.
Also why don’t you use it on quads? My hands aren’t enough lol.
I also rotate around from glutes to hip flexors gently and slowly to release them.
❤ the foam roller. Thanks Ash. Keep up the great content!!!
Haha same question about not using the roller on the quads, what do you think Ash?
This was purely a time decision Corey. To get into place and explain rolling the quads would have made this video a lot longer and I wanted to keep the first foam roll session as concise as possible to encourage as many people to do it because the shorter ones tend to be more popular because people are so busy. Will do a more in-depth one 👍🏻
Thanks for your comment as always Paul 👍🏻 missing the quads with the roller was purely time decision as I’ve mentioned to Corey below. Keeping them shorter seems to be more popular so I just planned to do a quick manual squeeze of the quads. Will do a more in depth foam roll 🙌🏻😊
Makes total sense and TBH, it is a reminder to us that we can always do a little self massage in a pinch when we are busy and have a tight spot.
I need a jackhammer on my upper legs usually. My percussion gun is barely strong enough. lol.
great, thanks
You're so welcome, I’m glad you enjoyed this session with me😊 thanks for commenting 🙏
This was great. Thanks, Ash. I bought a foam roller ages ago, but I usually feel a bit silly using it. Only question, why do the quads with your hands rather than rolling in a sort of plank/press up position? (Your way finds tender spots, so I'm not complaining.)
Good question Dave! The answer is, time! If I would have rolled the quads the video would have been longer and I wanted to keep this short and accessible to see if people enjoyed the foam roll session. Will be doing a longer more thorough one 👍🏻😊
Ash - do you have a foam rolling video up for glute & hip work?
I will add this to my schedule. I stopped at glutes on this because of time. I wanted to keep it as close to 10 mins as possible. 😊
Is this ok on its own or do you recommend doing it in addition to a stretch?
Absolutely it’s great on its own, even better with another stretch 🙌🏻😊
Hi Ash, I’ve just been for a run on the treadmill today. When I run 5k outdoors I run this in 34 mins. On the treadmill it takes me 41 minutes to get to 5k. I don’t understand how far I am actually running and which is accurate. I track both on my Apple Watch and have tried setting workout and both indoor and outdoor run. Do you have any advice?
I would suggest getting the Strava app and seeing what that says because that’s fairly good GPS. I would say the treadmill is inaccurate.
Thanks for this video!
Thank you too, I appreciate you taking time to comment 🙏😊
Thanks Ash
Any time, it’s great to see you prioritising recovery as always 👍🏻😊
