How to do this exercise: Ab wheel rolloutSetup · movement · load
Abs- Set your position
Kneel on a mat with the wheel below your shoulders and brace your abdomen.
- Make the movement
Roll a short distance forward without arching your lower back, then return under control. Increase range only after mastering position.
- Breathe and control the pace
Breathe out during the harder part and in on the return. Control the return instead of dropping the weight. Two reps in reserve means you could do about two more clean repetitions.
Watch out forDo not roll so far that your pelvis drops; begin with a plank if needed.
Understanding the loadYour body provides resistance. Begin with an easier variation or a shorter range that you can control.
For your first use, ask staff to show you the machine settings and safety release. Stop for sharp pain. This basic guide is awaiting professional review.
