A myofascial release apparatus can include a head member and a shaft configured to couple to the head member and to releasably mount the head member to a weightlifting rack. This can be accomplished, for example, by threading the shaft of the apparatus through apertures on a support member of the weightlifting rack and placing a securing member or securing loop on the shaft to prevent the shaft from retreating through the support member during use. The apparatus can be included in a kit having one or more of the following additional components: a washer, a magnet, collars, two or more additional head members, or a handle. The head members can be any suitable shape, including a blunt nub head, a precision nub head, and/or a broad nub head.
