Technique

How to perform Peroneals-SMR

  1. Lie on your side with a foam roller beneath the outer part of the lower leg.
  2. Support your upper body on the lower forearm and place the opposite foot on the floor in front of you to help control pressure.
  3. Raise the hips only enough to move the leg over the roller.
  4. Roll slowly along the outer lower-leg muscle area between just below the knee and above the ankle, avoiding direct pressure on bony prominences.
  5. Adjust pressure with the supporting arm and foot; stacking the other leg adds pressure if that is your chosen setup.
  6. Pause briefly where intended, then lower the hips and change sides.
