For this variation, you will have to be in a plank position but instead of your hands this time your feet will be on the handles of the ab roller. An extra accessory that you will require is afoot strapping attachment for this exercise. You need to set yourself in a plank position after your feet is secured in the attachments.

Remember that your hands need to be straight and under your shoulders throughout. Now roll in the wheels by bending your knees and bring it closer to the chest. Keep your body straight to achieve higher efficiency and extend your knees back to the plank position.

Important Tip: This form helps to engage the abdominal muscles, obliques, arms, and shoulders. (Tip: Breathe in when you bend your knees and breathe out when you extend your knees back to the plank position)
