Description:
  1. Assume a side lying position with foam roller under latissimus dorsi muscle.
  2. Adjust position as needed to target proximal, distal, lateral, medial and central lats.
  3. Keep pressure on hips and opposite hand to control the degree of pressure.
  4. Increase intensity by removing support hand.  Decrease intensity by addition of support hand and taking more pressure on hip.
  5. Roll a small area at a time and then move to another area.  Do not over do any one area to the point of significant pain or discomfort.  Less is more.
