rollerblades

I totally still roller blade! It's a GREAT workout! Really great for the glutes, inner and outer thighs, legs. Definitely worth getting some! I love it! Its a great way to switch it up if you get tired of walk/running

woof!!! Thanks but no thanks.... thats a dirty word to me

I was roller blading with my two sons when I was 37 and took a tumble breaking my sacrum in two places I couldnt move worth a tiddle for weeks

The scary thing is had the Fx's been just a tad higher Id most likely be paralyzed from my waist down

Its a fun exercise but I cant take the chance of taking another fall like that one. I wont even roller skate anymore something I dearly loved to do. I was most excellent at one time:-) lol

I still rollerblade, actually the correct name is inline skating. Rollerblade is actually a trademark brand. The guy who invented Rollerblades is from Minnesota, not far from where we live, actually went to school with one of our friends. He sold the company years ago. My husband and son and I love to inline skate around the lakes by our house. I was a big ice skater when I was young so it came pretty easy for me:bigsmile: and all the boys/husband play hockey so are good ice skaters and inline skaters. IT IS GREAT Exercise!!!! LIke the others have said, GET PROTECTIVE GEAR! Especially wrist guards, or you will be in ER with broken wrist! Helmet, knee pads, elbow guards, in that order of importants. You will fall, hard, when you fall. Go slow starting out, smooth surface to start with is best. Go with someone to begin with. Have a blast!!

Good point freebird! No butt protection out there other than your own self made padding! LOL:laugh:
