Revive and Rejuvenate with Pro-Tec Athletics RM Extreme Roller Massager! Review

I've bought other portable rollers like this one. What I didn't like is that they are loud and harsh. So when you're pressing on a muscle, there's not much to give. This roller is quiet, the handle has a light grip so my hand doesn't slip, and the foam roller is firm but not stiff so my muscles give a little even when I push down.
