Equipment
Roll Back Bar
The roll-back bar is a Cadillac or tower bar used for assisted roll-down, articulation, and arm-spring patterns. It helps organise the spine through flexion and extension with spring support. Linked exercises on this site include roll-down prep, arm-spring combinations, and mobility progressions. Bar height and spring length determine how much assistance you receive. Move slowly through the sticky points of spinal flexion rather than collapsing from the shoulders.
