I stared doing booty/leg strengthening exercises about 1 1/2 months ago....it COMPLETELY changed my skating game!! (AND my figure!!) Do these (and any others you may want to add) consistently and I guarantee you will see results!! Thanks for sharing!
I’m an older skater with mild hip issues who really appreciates this posting. 🥰 Never fell, just a genetic “gift.” 😆 Started using it today for my leg routines. I also use the slider discs to do one-legged standard and lateral lunges.
Awesome moves!! Trying to get more active so I can start to roller skate again. Don’t ever let time go by and forget what you once loved to do. Before you know it, you’ll have grown kids and a few more grey hairs. Thanks for the ideas and help!!😊
These are great! I do what we call "butt drops," but I like the modification of hovering over the bench. I also will be working on the single straight leg dead lift and walking side lunges! Thank you!
I'm making it a goal to maybe, just maybe, pick up roller skating next year - and these look like they'll be pretty handy for preparing! Thanks for the video
Thank you Kid Ace! I'm going to dedicate ta full week doing off skates. I just got my skates and I know I'm not strong enough to skate yet, when doing the last exercise, I'm unable to stabilze. Is it a matter of me just doing the exercise more or is it posture? When I lower my leg, I feel the balls of my feet shake trying to hold the position. Thanks again!
You can do these, if you are doing just body weight, anywhere from 3-5x/wk. if you like using resistance/weights, then I’d suggest doing them and then giving yourself 24-48 hours before returning to them. Thanks so much for tuning in!
What about knees...sometimes when I jump on my skates my knees hurt a little. My ankles and thighs are strong, is there a way to strengthen knees, or just more practice?...thx, good vids..
These are great exercises to keep your knees safe - to strengthen or give the knee joints more stability, we want to think about strengthening the muscles that surround the joint so that when we land we absorb the landing with strong and mobile muscles. When your hips, booty, hamstrings and quads are strong and mobilized you’ll feel more stable with your landings. Hope this helps!
I have the same issue - realized my inner thighs and knees were overcompensating for what my glutes weren't doing! Glad I found this video, last thing I want is an ACL injury. 😬
Hi, I'm curious, about how much reps and sets should I do them for in a session? I've gotten myself new skates as a Christmas present and i wanna prepare while i wait for the rest of the gear to arrive. Thank you for these amazing tutorials ❤️💕
Maybe someone can answer my question. I just started skating I feel fairly balanced and strong when I skate indoors on my linoleum floor able to start turn go and feel cozy. As soon as I get on the blacktop or the street I am so scared I get off-balance and I feel really weak. What can I do to improve this if anything? What am I doing wrong?

Honestly, I've had trouble staying low cause of the pressure in my hips, I am so so glad I found this video. 👐🏽👐🏽👐🏽

Thank you! Im new and was wondering what exercises I should be doing to strengthen crucial muscles and to prevent injuries.

How often should I be doing this?

I don't know if this will help anybody but I keep booty bands in my fanny for quick on the go warm-ups, especially for those lateral moves.
What about knees...sometimes when I jump on my skates my knees hurt a little. My ankles and thighs are strong, is there a way to strengthen knees, or just more practice?...thx, good vids..
