Equipment Needed

Wrist Roller

Hold a wrist roller in front of you at arm's length with both hands.
Roll the weight up by alternating wrist rotations, curling the rope around the bar.
Once the weight reaches the top, slowly reverse to unroll it back down.
Keep your arms extended throughout — don't rest them on anything.
Repeat for the desired number of rolls up and down.
