So, if we then look at another form of, like, not massage, but, like, foam rolling, for example, we see that, again, overall some increases in range of motion in some studies, uh, but you may need to be doing it for, like, four-plus weeks, um, in order to see those increases.

And if you're lifting with a full range of motion or at least, you know, emphasizing long muscle lengths, it's likely that you're get- getting a lot of, uh, range of motion benefits from lifting.

Keep in mind, those studies are not done on, you know, active individual always, or at least not always done on active individuals who are also lifting with a full range of motion and being pretty, you know, pretty active.

Um, in terms of recovery, some, uh, reductions in perceived fatigue versus just passive rest, but, eh, overall minimal improvements there.
Dr. PakGUEST

No interference on muscle growth, which is good.
