Athletic training students studied the effects of "foam rolling" and presented their findings at Scholars Day, Buena Vista University's celebration of intellectual and scholarly accomplishment. Their research was the recipient of a Scholars Day Grant from the university.
Some athletic trainers believe that foam rolling can improve an athlete's flexibility and pain tolerance, while others disagree. The students measured the benefits of eight regularly used foam rollers.
At Scholars Day, BVU students proudly present their best presentations, performances, posters and artistic creations. These projects also allow visitors to learn about a wide array of intellectual and artistic topics.
