Fitness Friday Fact #23


So far being a Girls Gone Sporty Ambassador has been an amazing experience.  Not only have I been able to meet a ton of like minded women via social media channels, but I have also been able to get some incredible fitness / wellness pointers from each and everyone of them! 

One of the coolest tips that I came across last week was using a foam roller as a core strengthener.  Having purchased a foam roller for recovery purposes while training for my half marathon, I was thrilled to learn that it could be multi-purposeful!  

Thanks to my fellow Ambassador, Nikki of "Grab Your Kicks.com,"  I have been able to let my abs take on the foam roller, as opposed to my IT Band.
