Skating
Ice or inline skating; the side-to-side push loads the outer and inner thigh.
How to do it
Setup
Skates snug, protection as needed, knees bent from the first push.
Steps
- Push side-to-back with long strokes.
- Stay low – bent knees are both speed and safety.
- Log the session by time.
Common mistakes
Straight legs: every wobble becomes a fall; bend. Pushing straight back: the edge grips SIDEWAYS. Looking at the feet: eyes ahead, the feet follow.
Breathing
Steady with the strides.
