Anyone remember the Reebok slide? My old Varsity tennis gals should! Basically you slip socks over your shoes and slide, left to right. It feels a lot like skiing or skating and it's a heck of a workout.
Anyway, I bought a slide on Ebay a while back and didn't realize there were various lengths you can get. Mine is HUGE and my short legs can barely make it to one side and then other. It needs to be at least a foot smaller, so I need to sell it and buy a new one.
To clarify for those who've never seen such a thing, here is what one looks like in action. You use the bumpers at each end to propel each slide movement. It's incredible exercise.

i have never seen or heard of that before. i'm totally confused. why not just get roller skates and skate around the neighborhood?
ReplyDeleteOh the good old days of sliding! I don't think we ever did it consistently for it to work on the court!!!
ReplyDeleteI would so fall down on that thing. I'd hit the bumper at the end and go ass over feet into the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteYou go, exercise demon! You rock.
Poor Dixie. She looks exhausted after getting off that thing.
