I don't think my plan is enough

Right now I rollerblade (intensely) for about 30-45 minutes, three days a week.

I started doing some simple bodyweight exercises like squats, push ups, etc.

My guess is that I can leave the cardio alone, but I should throw some more intense and consistent weight training in there.

A bit about me, I'm 5'6", 132 and looking to lose about 10 lb.

Thanks!

    I would keep the rollerblade, add in some weight training about 3x a week. If you have time use those body weight exercises as hiit workouts. Ie: 20 squats, 15 situps, 10 pushups, 5 burpees: rest 30 seconds repeat 3 rounds.

    Your goal is to lose weight, but you make no mention of diet. weight loss is dependent far more on diet than it is exercise.
