Roller skating is a fun activity which can be effective in improving cardiorespiratory fitness and muscular endurance. It requires relatively good balance and coordination. It is necessary to learn the basics of skating including turning and stopping and to wear protective gear to avoid possible injury.
Squat with Plate Movers
To begin, first set the bar on a rack to just below shoulder level. Position a weight plate on the ground a couple feet back from the rack. Once the bar is loaded, step under it and place the back of your shoulders across it.
Standing Hip Circles
Begin standing on one leg, holding to a vertical support.
Stride Jump Crossover
Stand to the side of a box with your inside foot on top of it, close to the edge.
Sumo Deadlift with Chains
You can attach the chains to the sleeves of the bar, or just drape the middle over the bar so there is a greater weight increase as you lift. Attempt to keep the ends of the chains away from the plates so you don't hit them when you lower the weight.
Suspended Split Squat
Suspend your straps so the handles are 18-30 inches from the floor.
Thigh Abductor
