Need some excitement in your workout routine? Then try this fun skateboard workout with Lose Baby Weight and feel the burn!
Hi everyone Tasheena here, I have been following the Lose Baby Weight Plans for over 21 months now and have lost 44.5kgs. I am always trying out new exercises to keep me motivated and my workouts new and exciting.
I have seen a few skateboard workouts circling around Facebook, Youtube and Instagram and I thought why not give it a go! I have poor balance and thought I would fall flat on my face but I didn’t, it was a challenge but I love a challenge!
So go give it a go, grab your kids skateboard, I used my daughter’s mini old rusty Kmart skateboard and worked up a sweat! Trust me you will feel the extra burn doing these basic moves using a skateboard.
Squats
- Place skateboard against your back and wall with the tail end under your butt and preferably do it outside as the wheels may mark your wall.
- Place your feet outwards and squat down and push up through your heels, squeezing your butt and using your core and also pushing against the wall as you go up.
- Repeat 5, 10, 15 times.
Lunges
- Place one foot on the middle of the skateboard and roll back, lunging down and pushing your weight through your heels. Make sure your standing knee doesn’t go over your toes.
- You will need lots of balance so feel free to use the wall if you need to hold something.
- Repeat 5, 10, 15 times on each leg.
Crunches
- This is a tricky one but easy once you find your balance, get into a plank position and when placing your toes on the middle of the skateboard, lean your body weight forward into your arms for better balance.
- Keep your weight forward, your core tight and roll your knees forward into your chest and then roll back again.
- Repeat 5, 10, 15 times.
Try and complete all 3 rounds or 5 if you are after a challenge or less if a beginner. We all started somewhere and this is for a bit of fun, you will feel it in your arms, abs, butt and thighs. You will burn roughly 200-300cals and takes about 20-25mins. Don’t forget to stretch after.
Please take caution when completing any exercise.
Have fun healthy mummys
