Rig Hanging Back Roll Tips

  1. Start by positioning yourself in front of the rig, ensuring that the bar is at a height that allows you to hang from it with your feet off the ground.
  2. Grip the bar with your palms facing away from you, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, and engage your core by drawing your belly button towards your spine.
  3. With a controlled motion, pull your shoulder blades down and back, while simultaneously lifting your knees towards your chest, aiming to bring them as close as possible to your elbows.
  4. As you roll back, focus on maintaining a strong engagement in your abs, avoiding any swinging or momentum that could take away from the effectiveness of the exercise.
  5. Once you have reached the peak of the movement, slowly lower your legs back down to the starting position, keeping your abs engaged throughout the entire range of motion.
