Hes a doctor, a firefighter, a police officer, and now an ab wheel expert...what a multi talented man

Thank you for specifically saying "you can't go all the way to the ground as a beginner, that would be too much" that really helps us dummies figure this out! I thought I was doing it wrong because I couldn't go all the way to the ground

The cat is stretching as well at 4:07 😂. Thank you for the video!

I just watched 5 other videos about proper techniques in using the Ab Roller. This video provides the best visual demonstration and best explanations. Thank you.

best feeling ever is when you record yourself and you think youre bending your back but then when you rewatch the video you kept it perfectly straight

Love how the cat stretched through the cat door along with your stretching. I just purchased my ab wheel (along with a jump rope) 2 days ago. Your video was the most helpful to me personally. Thank you.

I have been using the ab wheel for well over 40 years. I recently bought two ab wheels that look like dumb bells. I use them to work my chest. Instead of your arms going in front, I go to the sides like doing inverted flies. I have become strong enough to do them from my feet. The wheel is one of the best pieces of equipment you could have and something you can take with you wherever you go. Start very slow at first. The wheel can create debilitating soreness in the beginning. I'm 82 and use the wheel about every 5 days.

I just received my ab wheel. I last used one in early 1970ties. Watched your video to make sure I am using it properly. I am 80 now and want my abs back. Looking forward to seeing them again.

Here’s the thing. kzfaq.infoUgkxS7ex6L4sMqpaTn4LnBPyBmRQsSingL8y These are not meant to be stretched to 12ft or 14ft or whatever else where you’re a 6ft person, stepping in the band and trying to do standing shoulder presses. If they tear, (assuming they’re not defective) then you’re trying to stretch them way too far. For a full body stretch, bands should be like three feet long, doubled over. Don’t buy the bad press. A fully extended reverse fly is avoid as far as you should stretch these. If it’s too easy, use more than one band at a time.Not rocket science.

Bought this a week ago and almost broke my back when I tried it for the first time lol thank you for this video, very helpful

Hi Ryan, love that you featured the underrated ab wheeler. I think it fits perfectly with your philosophy of frugal, no gimmicks, genuine strength building. I really enjoy your channel. Keep up the great work.

I've been using the roller wrongly for about two weeks. But after watching this video, I'll start exercising with it correctly. Thank you.

I never used an abs roller, but I saw one in a free box a couple weeks ago and took it home on a whim. I had no idea how to use it, so I watched your video. Thank you so much for demonstrating what the beginner movement looks like. I thought, "I could do that!" So I did. And then I did 4 or 5 very small rolls for a few days. Holy cow! My abs are so happy. It's as if they didn't know what to do, but now they know. I can feel them engage when I walk. It's the coolest feeling!

I went from barely able to extend 50cm out from my knees, to finally 3 sets of 6-8 reps nose/chest to the ground. Such a good exercise.

This videos helps a lot, day one for me, thought I was doing everything wrong. Good luck to everyone on their journey 🙏🏽

1:18 *start off by kneeling in front of your ab wheel* *secondly, worship it and beg it for a six pack* *thirdly, you are done* _do this 3 to 5 times a week for ultimate results_

Holy shit the first ten seconds of seeing you do this showed me how wrong I was doing it. Relying too much on my knees and back and it hurt like a mfer. Every video shows how to do it, but they all use the same pose: the one that nearly broke my back, because they're JACKED. Thank you so so much. Earned a sub

Two minutes before this video, I tried my new wheel following what I saw on KZfaq, only to realize it's for advanced athletes. My core muscles immediately screamed, showing me what the wheel trains and how much I need it. I'm a four-month fitness beginner.

I looked at my ah roller today that I have been too intimidated to use, and got onto KZfaq to find progression videos and up pops Ryan 😃. Thanks for these tips, your channel really has been so helpful to me. I’m working on my frog stand because of you too. Then headstand, then handstand 🙏☺️

Thanks for this! I just got an ab roller and was afraid of being overwhelmed but you've made it easy to follow

I came for ab wheel, I stayed for cat escape

the cat just showed the best way how to do it fellas

Thanks, I was feeling a bit discourage because I could not extend all the way, but I get it now, I'm a beginner! I did feel it even though I couldn't extend the distance, it's only day 1

Thank you. This is a great help to those of us who brought ab wheels for the quarantine.

Always avoided ab wheels because they looked really difficult and I didn’t want to look foolish but, you broke it down making it easy to do. Thank you.

4:05😸 I just bought an ab roller a few days ago. I mainly need to practice, so I can demonstrate to my clients.

I started to hard and now my back hurts, so this was super helpful. I’m a beginner, no doubt about that. Also Like your cat. Thanks

My husband just bought me one of these and I had to Google how to use it. You make it look incredibly easy but I can tell it takes a lot of power ( that I don’t have ) to do the full roll out like you do. P.S. your cat and his or her very nice cat door tried to steal the show from you 😅

Got it out the packaging and did a full nose down rollout first try.. couldnt do 1 for 3 days due muscle ache. so thanks for this vid :)

Omg i’m 14 and i’m super happy that i found your channel❤️❤️❤️, right after highschool i’ll be joining the U.S Air Force and then become a PJ, this is a great start❤️

I just got mine in the mail from Amazon and tried doing 3 reps per the instructions it came with and my arms are frickin DYING. So I went to look for a vid to see what I did wrong. Thanks! You really helped me. Especially with the progression explanation.

വളരെ നല്ലൊരു tool ആണ് - Ab wheel(ചക്രം). ഞാൻ നല്ലപോലെ പ്രാക്ടീസ് ചെയ്യുന്നുണ്ട്.

"Check if you are in frame if you are filming a KZfaq video" seriously me every time! 😂 Thanks can't wait to get started with my wheel.

There was once a man in my university's gym who used to do this exercise without touching his knees!! He would stand then bend forward keeping knees locked , grab Ab wheel and roll forward until his nose touch the floor and then come backwards standing back up.. 😮😮 It was pretty insane..

What do you know. The moment I decided to get into fitness, he's right there already helping me get started. Thank you so much for all you do.

Ryan, you must have read my mind! I just ordered and received mine last week! I always poo pooed the ab wheel as a joke of a gimmick but now I've been reading a bit about it, it seems to be the real deal. Something that is actually genuinely useful!

Thank you for this video, as a beginner I thought I was doing it wrong, but you showed me the best way to do it ❤

If you want an intense workout. Have a pull-up bar and the ab roller. With that commit to hit training utilizing both and your back and core will develop even quicker. Worked for me.

My Abe roller just arrived today. Thank you for this. I’m stoked to see the results I will have over time

I'm a little late but thanks for the tips. I have one, but it sits on the floor of my workout room, next to my bozu ball and 10lb weighted ball. I will now try to incorporate in my workouts more often.

Starting my ab roller journey and really glad i found this video, great demonstration

My Dude GOD BLESS YOU thank you for the clear simple advice I'm a beginner and this video helped immensely

The cat 🐈 coming out was funny 🤣

Thanks for your videos, mate. As of today, thanks in part to you, I am minus the gym, and working out at home saving time and money. I'm down from 120kgs to 80kg also doing the same intermittent fasting pattern that you do ... which is what made your channel stand out from other calisthenics channels for me.

I just bought an ab wheel yesterday. This video is very helpful.

Love the video and just started tonight using the ab roller and I can fill the burn already. 😊

4:12 red cat joining the exercise ;-)

Watched 4 vids none helped but yours did

This is EXACTLY what I NEED atm. Thank you❣

Thanks for this! I suffer from chronic pain in my lower back and core strength is literally the difference to if I'll be able to play or lift my kids or not. Or even get dressed for work.I always loved working out and different sports but those days are gone now. Except for the gym. Of course I can't even do my favorite exercises anymore. Just a simple situp is impossible so I always look for alternatives. Saw one of these at the gym once. "Its a wheel with a stick" How hard can that be?, my mind whispered to my last functioning braincells. Good thing I already had finished my workout because as I'm pretty sure I broke some laws of physics inventing ways to inflict pain on the human body I swear I heard it laughing at me while I desperately tried to get the demon-wheel to kill me fast or let go of the tangled mess of agony on the floor. At last it showed mercy. But not until it had made sure that Quasimodo himself would avert his gaze in disgust had he seen me. Time for a re-match. Demon wheel.. But seriously. Thanks for the video. I'm sure it will help me a lot!

It's the cat going through the cat door for me 😊 Awesome tips 😉

Great visual and explanation for beginners. You convinced me to dust out my wheeler out of the storage room:). Great tutorial! Thank you for sharing this!

Heheheh the cat leaving in the little cat door is so cute

Thanks for this. Just starting to exorcise after jumping from 120 to 180. Somehow I still have my flexibility but I can really feel the wheel hitting my arms and stomach. I’m looking forward to possibly seeing results if I don’t puss out and quit before that

Right on everything in this video I know from experience you know your stuff this is very helpful for beginners an reassuring to myself thank you.

Kitty does a great lat strech

The Cat 😂

I was using an ab wheel from a standing position. I would bend down, roll out, then back and then stand back up. I did this twice a week for the first week with no problems, but yesterday, I felt a sudden, sharp pain in the left side of my abdomen. I hope I didn't give myself a hernia.

Thank you. A practical guide without too much technical stuff.

You helped me learn how to use this ab wheel I just bought......much thanks

The cat was the funny part!😆

This is THE BEST video on KZfaq. And I've watched a lot. Thank you for this video!!

Since watching your workout in this room, I've been wondering about who comes & goes thru that door slat. Mystery solved at 4:06: Hello Kitty ! Thanks, Ryan !

the kitty had other important business to attend to

You rock ❤🎉🙌💪

I think you are the best out ther that Explains ab weel/roller the beat. You go from beginner level and work with that first then you go with more harder practice. I will definitely follow you and watch your videos for other practice train gym videos from You. Thank you a lot:)

Your cat photo bombed u 😆. Also that cat can use some ab wheel workouts lol😅

alright. i'll try this thing again

thank u. Easy af, but needs stamina. And it works only like that.

Video starts at 1:18

Beware of the ab wheel, without being aware of the dangers, I managed to give myself diastasis-recti, where the middle of the six pack stretches and separates. It's a very difficult condition to repair, especially if you're no longer a spring chicken, so do be careful.

This is a very good video! Very methodic and thorough. Thank you for sharing this. I'll be looking for more helpful hints from you.

I love that your cat ends up in the video also.

Straight to the point, all the things I was wondering about. You've earned a sub, thanks!

Great video..but I've seen other videos where they recommended arching backing which will give a pelvic tilt

This equiptment or video could put gyms out of bussiness more than the Corona Virus did.

I feel like I'm getting major grip work as happy to engage my shoulders and back since i abuse them with constant cell phone usage

Love that cat door

The cat,,, came to learn got distracted with the cat !!!! hahahahahhaaa

I was waiting for Tha cat to come back🙈🙈🙈

This is one of the best videos ive seen on the ab wheel .thanks

Thanks!

Thank you so much for this video! Until watching I didn't realize how bad my form was. My core is too weak to properly do the full roll, but I would try and was straining my lower back to compensate. Looking at this I definitely need to work on building strength and form in planks and small rolls instead of hurting myself! You are a life saver!

Now. I am more interested in the cat. Where did it go and I lost everything else from the video. 🎉😢😅

The cat is a paid actor 😂😂

First week the wheel Kicked My Butt ..OMG ..

Ryan at 4:10: Let me show you the child's pose Cat: I will join you

I don’t know why but he reminds me of johnny sins huhu . Johnny sins as the gym instructor

That cat did a better yoga pose while going through the door

Love Ab Wheels ❤

I love the cat 🐈 doing it’s thing

What I really like about child's pose is your cat :D

Best explained video on how to not use your arms to move forward! Thank you!!

Great video Thank you for making it,I've just bought a ab wheel. I thought I'd be at least okish with it seeing as I can do 60 sit ups in one set but the first time I used my ab wheel I was shocked just how difficult it is! I tried to go all the way out like you and just couldn't pull myself back,nearly ended up going face first into the floor! My lats are my weakest musucle in my body along with my lower back, and I've struggled to strengthen them, one of my fitness goals is to be able to do pull ups, I'm female and I find them really hard. Can I ask how long did you train before you could go all the way to the floor as you did in the video? Thanks and please keep making your awesome vids!

Thank you!! All other locations show the form with keeping toes on the ground, that way is much easier and less effective. I just tried rollouts while lifting my toes, so much more ab tension and effectiveness!! 👍

Thanks, brother!

Excellent video, just what I needed for a beginners vid, many thanks

Master of all trades Jack of none

Johnny sins haha

Your cat photo bombed you lol. Great video anyway
