BTW, for someone who is just starting, do NOT roll all the way out. Start small, and as your arms, ab, and back get stronger that is when you roll further to increase the difficulty. Use your ab to pull for best result and try not to overly rely on your arms or back.
Rolling too far out than your fitness level can handle defeat the point of the exercise and can result in injury. Moderation is key, but once you master it, you can almost form a straight line with your body, and still return.
This is a very cheap but awesome exercise for the entire upper body, but it target the ab really well and doesn't strain your back much. I got a lean looking and strong 6 pack ab with combination of cardio with the wheel. I keep one around the house and often end up rolling on it when I have free time.
It generally only cost under 10 dollars in the U.S. but they do just fine as the design is simple. Do NOT buy ones that assists you like on the shopping channel. Even making your own works.
how longs the sorness suppose to be!? My guts been in pain for 2 days already!!! I did it for the 1st time 15 mins the at night for 10 mins my gut feels like it wants to rip open inside!
That is terrible workout for abs. This puts a strain on places you don't want to strain.
Of all the ways to work abs , this one sucks.
You admit it hurts your lower back. Not to mention your shoulders. You really think you want to put that much strain on your shoulders working your ABS?
I got an ab workout that gives incredible results. It's Easy and it takes 5 minutes every other day.
What you want to do is use THE most precise exercises that work your abs the hardest.
@JRCKFSH Well that's great that you have the best ab workout in the world, only takes 5 minutes and yet you don't say what it is. Smells like bullshit. Have you ever used the ab roller for a month or two? I certainly doubt it, but it's possible. You might have quit because it's hard and works. There is no magic way to a perfect body, it takes sweat soreness pain and a lot of time. Why yes, I would like to work my shoulders while working abs. What muscles do you think push ups work? Seriously man
I would like to see someone do it from the feet with feet together not shoulder width and go all the way to the floor chest touching. If you can do 50 perfect one's on you tube I will send you $500.00 I know someone out there other than my father can do this.
hey man, i just got mine a couple of months ago. And I haven't been able to use it because my lower back gets sore before i feel anything in my abs. If you can give me any tips, I would really appreaciate it. Thanks
dude, get on your back and do regular crunches until you can't breath(that will make your lower back hurt too), you need to build strength in your lower back first...crunches, 12 inches, and bicycles will sort of kill 2 birds with one stone, or begin to at least.
Hey I am sure you have great abs, but if you ask a chiropractor they will tell you the ab wheel is death on a stick for your joints and muscles. Its such an unatural motion, plus the purpose of the abdominals is to draw the rib cage to the pelvis, with the ab wheel you provide no resistance to the abs on the way up. Think about it, I didnt mean to crap on your video man just concerned
Hey Sorry for taking so long to respond... when I started out I only did 25 reps of forward and back... I think worked up to 75 then 100. After that I just do it for 3 minutes straight.
Just becarefull because since you are new to it, your lower back will hurt a little. Just take it easy and listen to your body.
Damn 6 dollars... wow yeah you can say I got ripped off I guess. I did see this one that was on a site (I forgot what site is was unfortunately) but it had foot straps too so you can do leg extensions on it...

your skinniness and low body fat is the primary secret to "great abs". The ab wheel does work though, boxers use it to build abdominal core strength.

i got one n jus started usin it again, bulked up n lost enough fat where its time to rip up the abs
what do u think about this 1 tho - its the same wheel except the handles are offcenter for harder axis
