Hi JerseyRott,
FYI, this "alpha roll" technique has been largely discredited, and even the people who first popularized, the Monks of New Skete, have backed away from recommending it.
Is your dog in obedience classes? Does he know some commands, like "sit" and "down"? When he starts barking, I would recommend leashing him and having him perform some "puppy push-ups." Basically, a course of sit-down-sit-down-sit-down.
