Exercise

Roll Ins

With foot strap

Type: Bilateral Rest: 120s Equipment: Kabelzug

Tutorial

1

Position the cable pulley at knee height and attach two foot straps. Fasten the foot straps around your ankles and lie on your back on the floor in front of the cable tower. This is your starting position.
2

Bring your knees powerfully towards your chest by bending your legs and tensing your abdominal muscles. Lift your lower back off the floor. Exhale as you do this.
3

Slowly bring your legs back to the starting position. Keep your abdominal muscles tensed even in the lowest position. Breathe in as you do so.
4

One repetition has now been completed. Repeat this process for the specified number of repetitions.

Tip

Your upper back is in contact with the floor throughout the exercise. Your abdominal muscles are tensed throughout the exercise. Make sure that you curl your hips in towards your stomach. Try to work only from your abdominal muscles and don't put too much strain on your legs. You can hold on to something with your hands (position the weight bench) so that your upper body remains stable on the floor.
