It’s more about technique than which foam roller you use, I think most runners will have suffered some tightness here, sometimes it approaches pain for me these days but not often. This video is the closest I could find to what I do, for me the extra release on top of the rolling is the key to effectiveness, and for the most part i do it more as occasional rehab than every day, even though a physio will tell you prevention is better than a cure, I can’t be bothered until it actually hurts!
