Too easy. Now you can do at least 2 reps. The real question is what to do if you can't even do 1 and the answer is how to are you so weak, do you have a caretaker to help you out of bed in the morning?
Is that what I should do with pushups?
Last time I tried to get back into pushups pulled something and then couldn't pushup for months; this sounds so much safer and smarter.
Put a real effort into learning proper form. You should for all exercises obviously, but for the ab wheel it is particularly important both to progress and not frick your shit up.
I did A LOT and i cant say it has somehow impacted my fitness.
You just kind of tense up yoir body. Cool if u can do it from feet. But i feel that heavy compound exercises maake me tense up better and i work out all the same muscle.
because it's easy to frick it up form-wise, arms should be just a supporting stabilizator, while the movement is being driven by your core, you probably need some practice to figure it out
This always hurts my ribs whenever I try it.
That's a good thing.
How does someone get into doing these? I only just started with them, and can only seem to do 1 rep lol

Doing as many reps as you can of something a few times is pretty much always a good idea.

Yeah, it's called gains. Look it up.

Whats with all the ab roller threads lately? frickin hell
big plastic is trying to make money in 2024, shit's a struggle out there
I just use a straight curl bar
>lately
How new?
Ab roller memes probably peaked in like 2014

your form might be dogshit, ab roller actively contracts your ab instead of just tensing it and it's way more intense on it than any compound movement

Standing is impossible.
I'm still stuck doing the knee version I can do like 10 reps but not 1 rep of the full version
why do I feel these in my arms instead of my abs?
Weak triceps.
Cause noodle arms

hanging leg raises and weighted planks, dont need that shit
>just do 2 inferior exercises instead of a superior one that basically combines the 2

Do it with a weighted bar. Go heavy and come to complete stops at the bottom. Turns a bit into a nordic curl.
These are more difficult to overload.
You outed yourself as a dyel.
different color meme
>actually works
Do these just hit the rectus abs or do they train the TVA too, like a vacuum
they're actually easy to overload
>do stricter form, start standing, use a smaller wheel, go to the sides instead of straight ahead
>weighted vest
I do them until back is parallel
Shouldnt do it until after 25 due to the chest cavity bones being the last part of your skeleton to fuse
Pretty good workout/stretch you can do at home
