How to do Barbell Ab Rollout - Abdominals
In this lesson you will learn how to do barbell ab rollouts. The barbell ab rollout is an exercise for the abdominals where you grab a barbell in a pushup position and then lift your hips by rolling the barbell towards your feet.
Description: Barbell Ab Rollout - Abdominals
* Go into a pushup position and grab a barbell instead of having your hands on the floor. The elbows should not be extended totally and the arms should stay vertical during the whole exercise. Arch your back slightly (like shown in the illustration above) and maintain this back-posture during the whole exercise.
* Roll the barbell towards your feet, lift your hips and exhale. The arms should stay vertical when you roll the barbell. Don't move too far, so that your abs lose contraction. Keep in mind that your abdominals should stay contracted always.
* Roll the barbell back forward slowly and inhale. Only move as far as your abdominals can support the arched back-position (don't let your hips hang).
Trainer advice: Barbell Ab Rollout - Abdominals
* Move slowly and concentrated.
* Never never never let your hips hang. Your abdominals should always stay under contraction.
* The barbell ab rollout can also be done on the knees.
* If you don't keep your arms vertical, you will work out your back and your shoulders more than the abs.
