Barbell Ab Rollout - On Knees demonstration

How to Perform

1. 1Hold an Olympic barbell loaded with 5-10lbs on each side and kneel on the floor.
2. 2Now place the barbell on the floor in front of you so that you are on all your hands and knees (as in a kneeling push up position). This will be your starting position.
3. 3Slowly roll the barbell straight forward, stretching your body into a straight position. Tip: Go down as far as you can without touching the floor with your body. Breathe in during this portion of the movement.
4. 4After a second pause at the stretched position, start pulling yourself back to the starting position as you breathe out. Tip: Go slowly and keep your abs tight at all times.
