Carve Out A Killer Core With the Skateboard Workout

Introducing the hottest new fitness trend on four wheels

From Adriana Lima to Elyse Knowles, the stars are all turning to a new piece of equipment for a full-body workout. Best of all? It may already be hiding in your home!

At the grand age of 37, Adriana says she took up skateboarding for a different way to get in shape – and she hasn’t looked back.

‘Listen, I never tried skateboarding. I did and I was good on the first time. I’m not joking,’ the Brazilian supermodel says. ‘Don’t tell yourself that you cannot do something. You have to try it and then from there, you make a decision.’

TARGET YOUR LEGS & CORE

Along with being a great cardio workout, skateboarding works every part of your body – especially your legs and core. ‘Your abs have to work with your back to keep your spine aligned,’ says Dr Michele Olson, an exercise professor at Auburn University in Alabama.
