Some days, we want to take advantage of the big foam roller — or as we affectionately call it, "the torture tube" — to massage out our muscles for maximum myofascial release. Other days, we prefer a less painful, more portable variety to get our recovery kick-started. The handheld Trigger Point Grid STK Foam Roller is just the ticket, with a convenient size that tucks neatly away in a gym bag, office drawer, or a large purse to take on the road.

Trigger Point claims that its three-dimensional surfacing replicates the feel of a massage therapist's hand to soothe your muscles. The Grid STK features AcuGRIP handles for pinpoint relief and secure handling, while the whole structure is easy to clean and water-resistant to fend off errant coffee spillage or unexpected rain.
