FAQs
Can I use this on carpet?
Yes, it can be used on low-pile carpet, though it is most effective and stable on hard, flat surfaces or rubber gym mats.
Is this tool suitable for beginners?
Yes, but beginners should start with short range-of-motion rollouts while kneeling to ensure proper form before attempting full extensions.
Does the wheel come pre-assembled?
The product requires light assembly. You will need to slide the handles onto the steel core, using soapy water to assist with installation.
How do I maintain the foam grips?
Clean them after use with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water soaking, which could degrade the foam over time.
What is the primary benefit of the stainless steel core?
The stainless steel core ensures the wheel maintains its shape and structural integrity even under high pressure during intense strength training.
Troubleshooting
Handles are difficult to push onto the steel pipe
Ensure you have used soapy water as a lubricant on the pipe ends; this will significantly reduce friction and allow the handles to slide on easily.
The wheel feels slippery on the floor
Clean the wheel surface with a damp cloth to remove dust or debris, then ensure the floor is dry before starting your next set.
Handles feel loose or slide during use
Wipe down the inner side of the handle and the steel pipe to remove any excess soap or moisture that may have been used during installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To assemble the handles, simply dampen the ends of the steel pipe with water or a small amount of soapy water to reduce friction during insertion. Slide the foam grips onto the pipe until they are fully seated and firm.
Compatibility: This product is compatible with any flat, stable surface. It works best on non-slick flooring to ensure maximum traction.
Care: Maintenance is straightforward. After each workout, wipe the unit down with a damp, clean cloth to remove sweat and dust. Store the AB Wheel in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the foam handles and the traction cover.
