I'm 62 , still got 6pack , I only use ab wheel to maintain it now I'm older, does the job fine
damn thas respect
Hello sir can I build 6 pack just doing ab wheel?
@@markdapucanta660 I didn’t get a 6 pack with just a ab wheel, I did that doing crunchiest ,sit ups ect but I do maintainer with the an wheel only. You have to realise that it’s it takes a lot of work to get the 6 pack but once you get there maintaining it is a lot easier, also you need to realise the importance of keeping lean because it doesn’t matter how good your abs are if they are covered in a layer of fat . Good abs are more to do with a good diet rather than exercise , hope this helps
@@russell6777 You mean once we get six pack we can maintain six pack abs by this roller only ?
@@MrRabidhakal I find it’s all i need to do, I had a hernia operation some years ago and wasn’t able to use the ab roller for some months , when I started using it again I realised from the sore muscles just how much the roller hits the abs, as I’ve said maintaining muscle is a lot easier than building it ,I find
Remember, keep your arms straight, keep your glutes tight, and squeeze your stomach. Finally, you use the abs themselves, you keep the wheel out in front half way and when you bring back, you use your abs, not the wheel. The tension is gone when it is done like that, so please do it correctly. After one rep, breathe out and do it the same way again. Keep resetting the technique, for every rep. Good luck guys.
Why should the arms be kept straight? Could you give more explanation?
@@kocho4242 you don't want to work the triceps. Obviously you work the triceps even when they are straight, but it helps maintain balance and doesn't exclusively put the pressure on the triceps, more on the core
Bro I can do maybe 4 in a way
I have no idea what anyone ever means by “Bring yourself back with your abs” lol that makes no sense. I’ve done the ab wheel for years, it shreds the hell out of my abs, but clearly my arms bring me back. There’s no way in hell that my stomach has the power to pull me back to knees from fully elongated.
@@joebuck4496 From the bottom/extended point of the movement, you’re more so trying to curl/crunch in with your abs. Like curling into a ball but your knees stay in the same place while you’re upper half is brought in by the force or “pull” of your crunch. A good way to feel a proper crunch is to tilt/squeeze your hips in to engage lower abs and then bring your chest down to engage upper.
Hope this helps. Happy to answer any further questions if you have any.
AGREED. Great if done correctly . . .GREAT content as usual. Thank you!
I like that there is regression as well. you can start from the knees, then you can alternate one leg down, then both legs down
“ I Love It, Cuz It’s $10”. 😂😂😂💯‼️
The cheaper the equipment is the more hard core it is.
Ab wheel, gymnastics rings, sand bag.... nightmare mode
Use a loop band anchored with tension on your foot on one end and on the handles of the wheel for great control during each and every rep, its being a game changer for me.
Establish creepy cat posture, roll out, return to creepy cat posture. That's 1
Fr 😂
im your 50th like
I want to do Standing Ab Roll outs.
I already hurt my shoulder.. 🙂
I thought your supposed to crunch your abs through the entire movement
My abs are weak but I got a wheel. What do you suggest?
Start with kneeling ab rolls. Then, after slowly increasing reps. Try to do some standing ab rolls. This will strengthen ab muscles, but to have a visable 6 pack, you will need to decrease body fat percentage to a level where ab muscles can show. This is done in the kitchen more than the gym. Remember, eat enough to fuel you for the whole day, but not too much that you gain weight or plateau.
1. Slight curl of the back, don’t allow belly and back to bow in cow position, be more like the
Halloween cat.
2 Don’t use hips to pull your body back after extending. Keep hips passive as you use arms and abs to pull you back
He right to its good to go slow
👍
It looks like Tim Pool has
put on some weight.
I saw an old guy rolling ab wheel landed on his nose n broke it
hahaha 😂.
Sounds like a slapstick.
Didn't hear about that one.
Ab Wheel , king of all kinds of injuries.
Heard about the low back injured, the shoulders. But the nose is on the list there also.
😂
The kneeling ab wheel rollout is way too easy for me...im so desensitized to it that it just becomes tedious.
Slow down the eccentric and then pause for a sec or 2 at the stretched position, then only come back up halfway before going back into the stretch. Makes the movement way harder
@@brennand933Yup, pausing at the bottom is a must ! I'd also say do the eccentric standing, and the concentric on the knees. Or standing but spreading the legs so there is less leverage
You are doing it wrong!!!
@@shan5445 for your information, I started doing it at age 17 and now I'm 23.
At first it hurt so much that I could only do it once a week...it got easier. I ended up doing it several times a week...increasing reps, until I gained the mobility to do the full length standing one.
Today when I do the kneeling ab wheel rollout it takes way to many reps before I feel anything...so I prefer doing harder exercises.
Don't be mad because you're a newbie bro 🤣
Time for you to move to the dragon flag then 👍
Please stop suggesting Amazon, shop locally....
Amazon is gunna kill most shops 😂
And what if the local shops are on amazon? You can also just buy from a third party seller on amazon
@@keiharris332 we should just accept Jeff bezos as the ruler of the world and we can move on 😂
No. Why would I pay twice as much to support some numbskull LoCaL bUsInEsS oWnEr who doesn't know the first thing about money
Where the fuck you buying an ab wheel locally??
It’s wonderful way to hurt your self😂😂😂😂
Used mine for over 12 years, still have a gut
That has nothing to do with the ab wheel but your diet, plain n simple !
You have strong abs. They’re just not visible. You have them under fat. Lose the fat and you’ll see the abs. But as of now you still have strong abs just not visible
Can't get abs when you're over 20% bf m8
@@baz9653 yep
The guy in the red hat switched his position after the other guy spoke.... people are so lame with all this indefinite stance. " I don't think there's any essential fitness tool "... 10 seconds later: renege
It still applies. Doesn't mean the ab wheel is bad, just means it's not essential.
No one fitness tool is essential because excercise can be done with literally anything, tools or no.
You didn't understand him ..
