HOW ABOUT A WORKOUT YOU CAN DO ANYWHERE . . .FIT TRAVEL TO GO?
DO YOU WANT TO TONE AND TIGHTEN YOUR LEGS AND BOOTY?
The answer is as simple as sliding your way to a great, intense workout. YES, sliders offer amazing benefits to burning calories, toning your body and core! That is why I have been using sliders in my own workouts and also with my personal training clients. YOU must try these, they will become one of your favorite additions to your workouts! Are you ready to slide away those extra calories? Here are some of the many benefits to using the sliders for your workouts:
USE ON ANY SURFACE Sliding discs are perfect for home workouts and on the road as they have a double sided design which adds additional versatility. Coarse side for hard floors and smooth side for carpets. Workout anywhere in your home, hotel or outside and get results.
STRONG TO THE CORE Slide and glide your way to an improved physique. The slider exercise discs will give you an intense workout of the mid-section, strengthening your core to give you a toned midsection. You can target individual muscle groups and workout your entire body as well.
COMFORTABLE & DURABLE Use these exercise gliding discs for core strengthening, athletic conditioning, CrossFit, HIIT, yoga, dance, balance training and more. Not only do they reduce impact to protect your tendons and joints, but these power glide discs fit easily in any small carry bag so you can workout anywhere, even when traveling (size: 9 in x 7 in).
SLIDER WORKOUT

Keep your left leg stationary in the bent position, then push off with your right foot into a sliding position, like you are skating. Then transfer the weight to your right side, sliding the left foot, then joining the right foot. (Just like you are skating on ice pushing off back and forth……makes me appreciate my son, Grant, as he plays college hockey and now I see why he has such strong quads & glutes! 🏒)
