Roll Back Bar

36m
Level 3 - Pace: Moderate
Join Ilaria for a full-body workout using only the rollback bar—no push-through bar, no springs, just one simple tool used in creative and effective ways. While this session engages the entire body, you’ll quickly notice a major focus on the forearms and grip strength, making it a great workout for anyone looking to enhance upper-body control and endurance.
Why does grip strength matter? Whether you’re working toward a pull-up, reinforcing upper-body strength, or preventing the effects of aging and osteoporosis, maintaining strong forearms and hands is essential. The ability to grip, hold, and stabilize plays a key role in both fitness and daily life.
If you have carpal tunnel or other wrist conditions, be mindful and ease into the exercises. Otherwise, get ready to challenge your upper body, build resilience in your grip, and load your bones for strength and longevity—all with the rollback bar. Let’s begin!
