Unlike a standard cylindrical roller, where pressure is essentially evenly distributed and the contours of the back are hard to target with precision, the curved shape and divided design of the Gemini allow the user to get more leverage and a better deep tissue massage. Particularly optimized for lumbar and thoracic spine mobility, the Gemini can be used on the floor, against the back of a chair during your work day, or as a precision, hand-held roller. The effect not only loosens tight muscles, but can also help with rehab work and reduce the risk of more serious injury over time.

The Gemini was co-designed by TRS founder and accomplished trainer and physiotherapist Kelly Starrett. Author of the New York Times bestselling books Becoming a Supple Leopard and Ready to Run, Starrett has long been at the forefront of new innovations in mobility and recovery tools. "We spent nearly a year getting the Gemini right for the human spine," Starrett says. "We looked at the best tools in the world, integrated them, and made them more effective and more safe. We looked around and no one had yet created what we needed. It’s a game changer."

The Gemini is constructed from a thermoplastic elastomer and ABS thermoplastic resin, creating an extremely tough, impact-resistant material that still has the necessary level of give. The deep groove pattern isn’t random, but carefully designed by TRS to create a consistent “grip” for a more optimized, controllable form of myofascial release.

The Ready State (formerly MobilityWOD) is the leading innovator of specialized mobility tools, and its principles and products are used every day in high school, college, and pro training rooms, as well as the highest levels of competition in CrossFit, weightlifting, Strongman, and more. The Gemini works best as a complementary piece to other TRS products like the Supernova, Battlestar, and MobilityWOD Stick.

Rogue worked with The Ready State to create an exclusive new Rig Mount designed to securely affix the Gemini to any Rogue Infinity or Monster Lite Series unit. This simple attachment features (2) prongs spaced 2” on center and measuring ⅝” in diameter. Each prong comes with a screw-in knob that enables quick and easy set-up and removal from the mounting point—ideal for gyms serving multiple athletes. The Gemini Rig Mount also comes standard with (4) plastic washers to protect the finish of the rack upright, and a T-handle hex key for tightening the screws that keep the Gemini locked into the mount. Please Note: The Gemini Rig Mount will NOT work with Monster Series racks/rigs or the Gemini-Xm "Mush" roller.
