This will help you master the full standing rollout. Using bands will help un-load the exercise by providing assistance. Any rolling device can be used here, but either a classic ab roller or a barbell work the best. Anchor a set of bands to a power rack or something stable. Loop the bands through the roller and you're set to go. As you go further into the range of motion, the bands tighten up and help pull the wheel back. Minimize the assistance by keeping closer to the anchor point or by using lighter bands. To ensure you aren't just springing back up with the assistance of the bands, use a band light enough so you can't exceed 8-10 reps.
Cons: It's easy to become too reliant on the bands. Use just enough band assistance to train each rep at a very high effort.
Pros: The bands demonstrate the importance of dragging the wheel back and keeping tension in the lats. It's the exact force you must to apply to the wheel in order to get yourself pulled back on your own. – Drew Murphy
