How to do the Skating
- Roller skating is a fun activity which can be effective in improving cardiorespiratory fitness and muscular endurance.
- It requires relatively good balance and coordination.
- It is necessary to learn the basics of skating including turning and stopping and to wear protective gear to avoid possible injury.You can skate at a comfortable pace for 30 minutes straight.
- If you want a cardio challenge, do interval skating — speed skate two minutes of every five minutes, using the remaining three minutes to recover.
- A 150 lb person will typically burn about 175 calories in 30 minutes skating at a comfortable pace, similar to brisk walking.
