Technique
- Kneel on a mat with the wheel on the floor under your shoulders and grip the handles.
- Tuck your pelvis under and brace your abs.
- Roll the wheel forward slowly, extending your arms and body as one unit.
- Stop before your lower back starts to arch.
- Pull the wheel back by drawing the ribs toward the hips.
Cues
- Think of keeping a hollow, slightly rounded torso throughout.
- Squeeze the glutes to protect the lower back.
- Start with a short range and build distance over weeks.
Common mistakes
- Letting the lower back sag as you roll out; shorten the range.
- Piking the hips up to cheat on the way back.
- Rolling out farther than you can pull back.
