5 Exercises EVERY Skater Should Know!

[@paoloretegno8046]

Thank you. Nobody actually talks about the exercises needed to keep skating after your twenties. Knee and back pain are the worst.

[@soundspoon]

gotta do that daily yoga

Facts!

I can recommend the channel "The Daily Push" ✌

After your 20s jajaja wait to have 40

[@SolRC]

Good stuff brother As a 46 year old skater every other day 1) Tib raises 2) Seated calf raises 3)Weighted full split squat 4) Reverse Squat 5)weighted one leg back extension 6) Reverse nordic 7) regular Nordic 8) Squat In order one push one pull, waiting 10 minutes between push pull sets.

[@bobburbanks7718]

I'm 46 too, trying to work with a similar program, I do a bit of jump rope and swimming too, wish I'd been doing this from day 1 tbh, i think it helps restore a bit of balance to your body after skating makes it a bit wonky over time. Keep on keeping on brother!

[@LaBaticuerva]

Thanks will try chad’s and these routines 👍🏼 in my 30s and staying true to my inner child who wanted to skate for life

[@vanguardcycle]

regular strict nordics are BRUTAL!!!!!!!

[@darude]

Chad, mad props for leading with this example! You look great btw, I can see you’ve hit the park & gym a good bit recently, good for you man!

[@alexb9597]

Hold up bro it’s Darude

[@Way2muchreality]

I'm 26 and just started skating as a hobby and to get some exercise. I've had knee problems for years since an injury in middle school. This is a GREAT exercise program for me and anyone else who has knee issues. Thank you very much! 👍🏾

[@zakjackson2610]

Legs, core, back and shoulders. All crucial to skating. Really helpful video! 🤙🏽

[@noahyeargin5765]

This is dope chad. Not enough people or skaters including myself focus on exercising for functionality. Def gonna implement this in my workouts

[@soundspoon]

added in single leg RDL's about 6 months ago, its helped with endurance/balance tremendously for me

[@jesseissorude]

I am SO down for more content like this. I'm trying to bulletproof my ankles and get great at going to the ground safely.

Thanks again for having me on, dude! If anyone has any questions, feel free to leave a comment here or shoot me an email 🤙

[@al3xthekid973]

Man your work is amazing , from a Portuguese skater living in Belgium this routine helped me so much that I even go my legs way more muscular and all , pop and stamina , plus no injury until now man , thanks , putting in the work brings amazing results guy believe

[@RemyTrahant]

These are great, and it's a pretty quick routine. I'm almost 45 and trying to avoid injury as I get back into skating. Thanks, Chad!

[@idmovepersonaltraining]

Really glad seeing you posting this up, Chad. As a lifelong skater and owner of a PT studio in the UK myself it's really encouraging to see your recovery going well and some great exercises demonstrated for everyone to see. Big shout out to Mike on the blunt to rock, the Team Nori shirt and being a great coach. Keep it up both of ya!

[@GZAndrew]

Thank you for sharing. I’m 42 and skate regularly. Having a background in sports has certainly helped because I’ve lifted weights and do cardio all of the time. Working out is essential. Good diet, and never skate in worn out shoes. That will cause injuries for sure. Peace

[@ZackDowdy]

Thank you!

[@kevinhawthorne5257]

Thank You for all of your videos that you did.

[@himebaughchris4026]

Very helpful. Like the Andy Anderson stretches. Take care of You, Bro.

[@Casualyme]

man this is great chad! thanks for doing this! as someone who had patellar tendon surgery about a year ago this is awesome information!

[@XSProgression]

Awesome thanks for this video! Big into keeping the body in good shape to be able to skate and do other things long term. Will incorporate these exercises!

[@Codisrocks]

Recently started hitting the gym to help with skating, (and because my brain feels good with stuff like that.) and some of this stuff is getting added to my next day!

[@donswanick237]

wish there were more dudes that were rad/chill and dedicated to skating and also health oriented. Great video!

Great video guy's. I am 61 and I do a workout for strength and flexibility every day so I can stay injury free and enjoy sledding. I will add these to my arsenal . Thankyou.

[@terrelldemetrisphotography]

I’ve been skating a year now (33yrs young) and I’ve been looking for this exact type of video. 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@danielbowman7507]

Cool video! Do you reckon you could do one for jumping higher. I lost a bunch of weight recently and put on some muscle and I’m noticed on kickflip and tres I can pop them higher than I can actually jump to catch them

[@ijustlike0010]

Heel raises are good for that!

[@michaelbouranis9709]

Hey Daniel! Mike here from the vid. Jumping higher is going to be a product of your legs getting stronger in general (so these leg exercises are great, as are tradition leg exercises like squats and deadlifts) as well as learning to turn that strength into power by doing exercises like the Vert Jump here, Box Jumps, Single Leg Jumps, etc. At the end of the day, it comes down to training consistently over time, so I'd suggest trying a basic 2-3 day a week full body program with exercises/weights you're comfortable with, and slowing adding on weight to them overtime!

[@danielbowman7507]

Thanks guys I’ve got something to try now !

Thanks for this!! Been going to the gym as a family activity and only now recently started skating. It’s good to know I can implement these exercises to help me skate as well :)

[@WheelMarks]

Thanks for making/sharing this video. The information was very helpful, especially for a skater like me who is coming back from injury and feeling the effects of ageing

[@Lifesaver5]

Heck yeah

[@rzadigi]

This is fantastic stuff! I’m nearly 50 and am still quite active. I never cared for the gym rats and was sure I’d never workout, but about six years ago I was exposed to a few exercises and slowly got into it. I then put on quite a bit of muscle and even had some injuries from overdoing it. Haha. But I feel so much better now that I’m working out and am always trying to encourage friends to get in there. If you want to stay young there is no better way! 🙏❤️

[@nofxdude89]

There’s some great workouts here. Any other skateboarding-demand related workouts available online from Stoked?

[@middle-agedclimber]

Thanks for this

[@davegambill824]

Dude, I have been waiting for a Video like this. And a huge thank you for your videos. They help me with tricks but more my mental state. Thanks for keeping it positive. Do another interview with Jon Bishop. Haha

[@joshcalvo]

Thanks so much for this video, Chad! I think that Skaters should be more aware of how good working out can be for your stamina and pop. Not to mention that it can also mitigate some of the damage from the impacts.

[@dalcala75]

this is so helpful i will def be adding this to my gym routine thanks!

[@joshb9657]

I was a sponsored skater age 14-18 then quit as I thought riding girls was better (how wrong I was) Anyway recently got back into it over lockdown, am picking it up again really well, but when crouching down on my knees getting back up is difficult, my knees & lower back feel like an 80 year old and am only 35, these videos show am not alone though which is encouraging & also show me on what I should be doing to strengthen my body. Thanks Guys

[@solidbluebrian]

Great stuff!

[@masonwhitley1496]

Man, before my surgery on my knee, I was a senior in football and was really fit. So skating just felt way easier for me and now lookin at myself now not fit as I once was bc of recovery, it sucks seeing myself weak and out of breath so easily. I'm close to coming up to physical therapy and can't wait till I'm back on track to start exercising like I once was.

[@fabandell]

Awesome video!

[@StationaryRocketFlipChampion]

Mike seems like a really cool dude. Thank you guys for making this video. For a skater my age (35) I'm sure I will benefit from these exercises

[@michaelbouranis9709]

Thanks, Gary! Feel free to shoot me an email if you have any questions once you try them out!

[@driftlessskater5475]

Nice. Glad to see you in the gym. I’ve done a similar thing to those Tib Raises with elastic bands, but the dynamic is more in-line with skating. Hope the running is going well too.

[@inot1105]

Helpful to 40+ old sk8rs thanks Chad and Stoked Athletics! God bless

[@skater_scott]

Hell yeah. I've been waiting for a good "skater workout!"

[@freeheeldude]

Great content Chad, I'm 45 and want to keep skating as long as I can. Specific training routines like this are a big help. Should we do them in this order?

[@michaelbouranis9709]

Hey Ken! Make sure you do the power first (vert jumps), and then prioritize the bigger movements first (split squats and RDLs). You can finish with a superset (going back and forth between) of the tib raises and 1/4 get ups for time-sake

[@Leondrian]

More please!

sorry for the stupid question, but i try to build strength and stamena for bowl riding for 2 years now and i totaly fail..

[@ChadCaruso]

I go every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for 1 hour. Mike started me with these exercises and gives me a new routine every month. Throughout the month we increase the weight and/or number of sets. I skate just about every day of the week even if it’s only for a little bit. Most of the time I skate for at least an hour or two. In the beginning I was sore but now I go directly to the skatepark after the workout

[@enerian4525]

@@ChadCaruso thank you!!

Regarding your knee injury, not sure exactly what it was, but I'm assuming it was some sort of tear like mine and most other skaters. What exercises helped you to build back your confidence in your knees.
