The Stick works wonders on tight sore muscles, and will get you back on the road with less stiffness and pain when used regularly. I love mine. 5 stars

The stick absolutely makes a difference in how I feel the day after a long bike ride. I ride 2-3 times a week for an hour or more and commute to work, and this keeps my legs feeling fresh every day. 5 stars

I already own 'The Big Stick' and it's a great product. This one however falls short.
I picked this one up so I could have something small at work to use since I'm terrible with getting around to using it at home.
The size is good and all, however there is far too much flex on this thing which does not allow me to get enough pressure on my target areas. The core rod is thinner than the larger models and therefore causes all this flex. I would say stick with something larger. This may be good for light work, but not for heavy tension such as I have. 2 stars

Very helpful for after, or even before a race. Prepared my muscles, but also soothed soreness after a tough race or workout. Recommended for any runner looking for a solution for those aches and pains. 5 stars

I purchased the Marathon Stick about three weeks ago, based on a recommendation from a message therapist. I have been having problems with one of my hamstrings for about one year when I run. After using the Stick for one week the problems with my hamstring are gone! Now I used it before and after I run, swim, or bike or whenever my hamstring, quads, or calf muscles are sore. The Stick has worked great for me! 5 stars
