And that makes a ton of sense. It would be pretty silly to think if I were to roll on a foam roller for two minutes and then all of a sudden I get up and I have a structural change in the anatomy of my quad.

That would be pretty ridiculous to think, right? So how long is that typically going to last? A few minutes, a few hours? As you alluded to earlier, if your only strategy is foam rolling... Or whatever the case is, it's probably not correcting it. So what other stuff do I have to do? What things can I tack on that give me a higher likelihood of this being a more permanent change?

I want to know what a sample model of that could look like. But before we do that, I've got a couple of quick questions on this particular topic. We asked about duration changes. My assumption is the harder you press, the more pain you're in, the better things get here, right?

That's how I really get these things changed, right? And I'm not actually joking because that was actually my strategy. Thank you, Kelly Starrett. Pain cave was my approach. And I always thought the more pain I'm in, the more it's solving the problem, it's causing the release, whatever was working. So what do we know about pain? The dosage, how long does it have to be? How hard do I have to press?

More pain, less pain? Give me the quick rubdown on that part of it before we get into these more comprehensive strategies.

Okay. Yep.

Okay. Yep.

Oh, damn.

Oh, damn.

I will tell you right now, the soft tools were 500 times more effective for me.

So that's a part of this conversation strategy, right?

The ones that put themselves in more pain got better, right?

Yeah, well, I'm still going to try to beat it out, but I appreciate you and your science, Jill. The glare. If you all just saw the glare she just gave me. No, I don't do it. I've learned my lesson from there.
