Rollering muscles ! Beneficial or not ?

I was given this rollering of muscles to do for very tight calf muscles to help relieve my ankle injury too.

 

I imagine if I was using my roller in conjunction with a ballet class I would want to do it BEFORE the class as it's during the class that you want the muscles to be less tight......though I suppose you could do before AND after.

 

I bought this sort of roller made of a fairly hard sponge material.

I sit on the floor hands by side and then starting with the roller on the ankle roll up the leg towards the knee by lifting bottom off the floor and sort of balancing on hands.

This is also quite good for the core muscles while you are doing it!

I think only exercising in the right way would actually reduce bulky muscles though.
