Standing Wheel Rollout

Standing Wheel Rollout is an advanced isolation pull using bodyweight. It loads Abs.

Why this lift

The Standing Wheel Rollout is a advanced isolation pull lift. It primarily loads Abs. Shoulders, Lats, Triceps help. You need bodyweight. Most programs place it after your main compounds, as accessory work. You may also hear it called Standing Wheel Rollouts.

Loaded carries, crunches, and the brace on every compound already train the abs. Extra core work is seasoning, not the meal. This one asks for control and existing strength. Skip it until the easier variations in this library feel solid.

Muscles worked

• Primary: Abs
• Secondary: Shoulders, Lats, Triceps

Setup

How to do it

Common mistakes

How to program it

Treat the Standing Wheel Rollout as accessory work: 2–4 sets after your main compounds, enough to feel the target muscle without stealing recovery from the big lifts.
