Now THIS is the best video on how to focus the strain on the abs alone....I hate back pains and I've been doing this wrong by pulling with my arms instead of my core.....ty for this
I saw 2 other videos before this one on how to do it correctly and I just didn't get the difference between wrong and right way. Loved how you guys explained it, the wrong way actually looked different this time to me. The example of the string pulling on your back really helped!
Great video! You taught me how to do this exercise correctly for the first time in my life, I’m 42 lol. Using your form, I actually used my abs instead of my lower back and arms
I'm so happy I found this. I felt like such a wuss because I couldn't bring the wheel out any further without feeling it in my lower back, and I just assumed it meant that my abs weren't strong enough but actually I've been doing it right and once my core get stronger I can complete the full range of motion. also this is the first video I've ever watched of you guys. I've been listening to the podcast for months now and I love the balance of bro humour and science.
This, I am overweight and its my first time doing abs, I am following the correct form but I still feel it in my lower back. Mind you after like 4 of these I was dead and my abs hurt.
LOVED the price for all that it is, was looking for a th-cam.com/users/postUgkx1N3gatJfHIxCsI2TbcOH1-k8v-EDJ40N bench specifically with Roman chair capabilities. It was easy to assemble, light enough to move around easily, but sturdy and stable too. We put gym floor pads under it in the garage for added stability but doesn't really need it. Easy to adjust. The dumbell storage underneath isn't super useful and they tend to slide off sideways, but not a necessary feature for us. Thanks for not price gouging when everyone else is on exercise equipment during quarantine times!
This is the best instruction I have found, in demonstrating the proper form for this exercize. Using the example of "cat / cow" pose (or Chakravakasana) was an excellent way to describe proper and improper body positioning, to do this safely. Bravo, dudes! FYI: using a roller for ab work will save your neck, if - like me - you strain it when doing crunches etc.
thank u guys...i just bought my ab wheel frm Amazon yesterday...n today i began.....thank u for teaching me the right way to do ab wheel.....i'm benefited from ur advice at the very starting stage of my ab wheel exercise.....thank u , from India.
BNGMOB I just started doing these recently and it looks like I was not doing them 100% correct ... to do these correctly as they show in this video is really really tough !
Wow good stuff. I found this video because I’ve gotten to be able to do sets of 25 with the ab roller and it barely burns. I tried this form and I barely got 5 reps in. And my abs are on fire!
Thank you for this video. I have arthritis in my lower back and I’m trying to strengthen my core to support my back and help relieve the pain and doing this exercise wrong was causing serious pain on top of my normal pain. Following this tutorial helps keep the strain off my back.
Make no mistake. THIS is THE way to do ab rolls. You'll know you're doing it right, too! I can barely do 10, but I do about 2-3 reps of 10 a day and MAN, can I feel that in all the right places. Thanks for this video!
@@MatrixEyeOpener When doing any exercise, you want to exhale during the hard/push portion. For this exercise, you probably want to breathe in as you're extending outwards, and breathe out as you're coming up. This one is a little more difficult since both portions of the exercise are challenging.
glad I found this video, form is definitely key. Since correcting my form with this I can literally fill the burn in and around my core and its still pretty tight even after the workout
Wow, the difference. I couldn't do one. And when I did it I felt all the work in my back and arms. I did 10 and I feel it on my core. Thank you for posting this. Now I'm more confident.
and do you think it helps if you put in people’s mind that it is difficult. Go binge on a tub of ice cream and be happy. The rest of Humanity come to such videos to find encouragement. Enjoy your vanilla ice cream and glaze it with strawberry syrup. Just kidding dude. But serious dont ruin hope for millions.
Eduardo Viajero I think the comment is meant to be in jest. If someone was going to lose hope in their fitness goals from a silly TH-cam comment, they were going to lose hope in some other way anyway.
@@eduardochavacano you’re a little too butt hurt over this comment. Figure out what’s really bothering you.

Good advice on how to do this correctly . The Ab wheel has been around forever and few seem to know how to do this properly , thanks for the explanation and demonstration..
Amazing video! I used to do like 100 rolls everyday and I've been wondering why is it so easy but I feel nothing in my core? I've been doing it all wrong this whole time, thanks a lot :)
Guys thank you so much for this video. I’ve been doing this wrong for years. I would feel pain in my lower back. Doing it correctly, I definitely feel it in my core now. Omg. Thanks!!!
I'm planning to include this in my exercise, and looking for videos on how to do it properly... and this video by far is the most informative. It shows not only the proper way to do it but the wrong way to do it as well.. Many thanks
Thanks man, I finally know how to use it. Before I seen your video, I try to use it but ended up getting hurt. Now I know how to use it properly and I can do more than 20 without failing. I appreciate that
Just saying, that I've been watching a bunch of youtube videos on people doing a simple ab wheel plank. And they all have been doing this wrong, should be ashamed. Really! This video here is spot on.
Keep Negativity to yourself and choke on it. No one needs to hear What you cant do and how everything is difficult for you. You are killing everyones optimism and that is pure evil. Now change. Not a Judgement at all.
I always see you guys doing exercises with casual walking shoes, sneakers even complete flat shoe like converses, but there is lots of truths, myths, ideas about training and running shoes. Since you guys(especially sal di stefano) know a lot about the science behind almost every fitness things, I think you guys should do a video about it. So that we might know what to spend our money or not.
Seriously, best video on ab wheel workout. I followed and did exactly they are showing in video and was able to around 6-8reps.max...do the wrong way ans you can do countless but then no result. Amazing video and thanks guys 💪
ILL HAVE TO SAY THIS BUT GUAUUUU YOUR GUYS LOOK AMAZING I AM STARTING TO GET LITTLE BY LITTLE TO EXERCISE MORE/SWIMMING AND I WAS TOTALLY WRONG DOING THIS EXERCISE SO NOW I KNOW THE PROPER WAY THANK YOU GUYS
This will be a good new year resolution workout after eating and going to different party and events during the month of Christmas season. Will surely motivate myself!
This video was awesome I have had 2 different ab wheels....I have one like u have and I have the one that has the helping spring in it......I just recently decided "hey I'm fat and I'm 32 time to do something" and I was making sure I was doing it right so I'm here.....ur right I don't even go down as far as u and I can only do 10 with the wheel u have then I do 10 more with the one with the spring and I'm so drained......super awesome cheap workout that really works great, if u do it right......thank u guys for the in-depth demo
Awwww thank you so much no wonder it was so difficult because I was using my arms while doing it and not arching my back I’m new to it. It’s very hard to do but I’m try this method right now
Been doing ab wheel rollout for like 2 weeks now and just found out I have been doing it all wrong. I now know why I usually have lower back strain when doing rollout, thanks for the tip. 👍💪🏾💯❤️
Appreciate the knowledge bro. I activate my hip flexors n arms all the time doing these. I messed up my AC joint a little bit cause i was doing them with my arms a lot but im going to try this technique
Imagine my surprise when I was searching for how to perform this exercise properly, and then realized it was my cousin's ex husband Sal, haha. I've known Sal for 20+ years, when he was a muscled up young dude playing pool at my house. Great video, great form.
Thank you guys for this video. I just got an ab roller in order to strengthen my core. I just tried it and knew I was doing it wrong. The way I was doing it, I thought I was going to put my back out as I was putting way too much pressure on my back. So, I jumped on TH-cam to find out the proper way to use the ab roller and your video was the first one I came across.
Great video. I've never used a wheel before but got given one recently. No other video was really explaining the do's and don'ts well, this was perfect. Thank you
Damn iv been doing it wrong for so long. Thanks guys, my lower back has been taking the brunt of the excersise so now i know how to do it i'll give it a go in the morning. Cheers lads
i feel like the wheel just isnt good for people who are just starting core workouts. you require an already solid core to do it, so why try to start with it? crunch it out baby
dan brooks yes and no . I agree there are much easier movements to teach a beginner but you can easily regress this movement also . The point of the video is to teach proper mechanics, not to say it's the "first" ab movement you should learn
Thank you, very helpful. I've had my ab wheel for a few years now and I've used it before. My fiancé has tried showing it to me and I've used the wheel many times before but this video was much better at showing me how to properly use it efficiently.
I have an old Torso track that I bought years ago. Same motion so this helps me. Torso track would be easier than this wheel though. Will have to work up to this.
I went from doing 20 reps easily to doing 8 and collapsing on the floor, panting. Thank you!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's how you know you've started doing something with proper form 😄
😂
I just do it until I feel burn
I am curious if you have evolved again after "collapsing on the floor, panting".😂
Now THIS is the best video on how to focus the strain on the abs alone....I hate back pains and I've been doing this wrong by pulling with my arms instead of my core.....ty for this
Most excruciating abs workout for me but one of the most effective. My lower and upper abs sores doing this
I saw 2 other videos before this one on how to do it correctly and I just didn't get the difference between wrong and right way. Loved how you guys explained it, the wrong way actually looked different this time to me. The example of the string pulling on your back really helped!
After corona virus hit
American people: I might as well learn how to use that ab roller I got for Christmas.
Bruh that's why im here
Bruh i am training so i can fight corona.
Baby Yoda corona doesn’t want to catch me

Nah u got me there 🤣🤣🤣😭😭
I can't believe I've been doing it wrong for years. Glad I bumped into this video.
Tony McKinney yeah same I feel like an idiot

I did about 7 REPS yesterday (perfect form) I already feel like I have 8 pack😂 behind my slightly big belly
Not gonna lie.. u had us in the first half
7 x 10 right?
hehe haaha
I feel same lol 😂 have abs behind the fat belly
I only tested 2 reps. Then 24 hours later, it's a little sore

How does the breathing work
@@MatrixEyeOpener When doing any exercise, you want to exhale during the hard/push portion. For this exercise, you probably want to breathe in as you're extending outwards, and breathe out as you're coming up. This one is a little more difficult since both portions of the exercise are challenging.

Great work gentleman.
glad I found this video, form is definitely key. Since correcting my form with this I can literally fill the burn in and around my core and its still pretty tight even after the workout
Just bought an ab wheel and this is extremely helpful. I was having trouble figuring out the proper form. Thanks a bunch, can't wait to try it out!
This channel is the best thing since the best thing ever. Excellent yoga reference for explaining proper form.
Just bought an Ab Wheel last night per a recommendation from a coworker. Doing my due diligence before it arrives next week. Thanks you guys!!

Nope one crucial part is missing... You'll see what I mean when you watch the video from FitnessFAQs.

Hello Jackie you have what's up No. Please share on 0300 3552402
You should take off your shirt off so we can see the abs react differently when doing correctly and incorrectly.

It's recommended to use flat shoes for weight training as it doesn't have cushioning and thus distributes the weight properly to the floor

If the other two guys would stop interrupting and let the guy explain the exercise this video would have been only 2 minutes long.
thanks for this video guys. I'm old and weak and need to prevent back injury. Kudos!
Ok so question, if you’re just starting out I’m assuming it’s ok to not go down all the way and still practice good form?
Great explanation and video!

Just tried it this way and felt a hell of a difference! Great work man!👍🏾
I can not do that lol, my ab wheel is just for display😂
I just bought one, hope it doesnt become a collection 🤣
great tips. Thank you
