Forearm Roll-Up – Barbell
- Set up a power rack placing a barbell at about chest height.
- Select a kettlebell and an appropriately sized resistance band that can be looped around it.
- Loop one end of the resistance band around the kettlebell securely.
- Loop the other end of the resistance band around one end of the barbell securely, wrapping it twice to ensure the kettlebell is suspended and the band is taut.
- Stand facing the barbell with your feet shoulder-width apart, positioning yourself slightly back to allow full range of motion for the barbell to roll.
- Extend your arms forward and grasp the barbell with both hands using an overhand grip, placing your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width for stability. Place one hand on either side of the band connected to the barbell.
- Begin with your right hand, rolling the barbell away from you as much as possible to contract your forearm muscles.
- After rolling with your right hand, switch to your left hand and perform the same rolling motion, alternating between hands with each roll.
- Continue this alternating pattern, rolling the barbell and lifting the kettlebell until you cannot roll any further or the kettlebell reaches its peak height.
- Carefully reverse the rolling motion using alternate hands again to lower the kettlebell back to the starting position in a controlled manner.
