How to do the wheel rollerout
- Kneel on the floor and place the wheel roller in front of you.
- Place your hands on the handles of the wheel roller and extend your arms straight out in front of you.
- Engage your core muscles and slowly roll the wheel forward, keeping your back straight and your abs tight.
- Continue rolling forward until your body is fully extended and your arms are overhead.
- Pause for a moment, then slowly roll the wheel back towards your knees, maintaining control and keeping your abs engaged.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Sets and reps
For muscle growth, 3–4 sets of 8–12 reps with 60–90 seconds of rest is a proven starting point. For strength, use a heavier weight for 3–5 sets of 3–6 reps and rest 2–3 minutes. Add a little weight once you hit the top of your rep range on every set.
Muscles worked
The main muscle is the abs. The lower back work as secondary muscles. See all ab exercises or every foam roller exercise.
