APT Protocol: 3. Foam Rolling the Lats (Latissimus Dorsi)

1 x 30 seconds each side
Steps to foam roll your lat muscle: Begin by laying a foam roller on the floor and positioning your lat muscle directly on it. Ensure continuous contact with the lat muscle and roll along the side of your body, making slight adjustments to target the fibers of the lat located on your back. Focus on maintaining steady pressure and control throughout the movement to effectively release tension and promote muscle relaxation.
To prevent possible harm like fractures or dislocations, make sure not to roll the massage roller too close to the lower ribs. It's important to keep the roller positioned higher on the back to reduce the chances of getting hurt. Remember, focusing on caution and keeping the roller in the upper back area can prevent unnecessary injuries.
