People know that skateboarding is excellent and beautiful, but they don't know that there are many tricks hidden behind skateboarding.
Skateboarding is very demanding.
Speaking of the origin of skateboarding, it can be traced back to the 1950s. A group of young people who like surfing wanted to experience the feeling of rising in the sea on land, so skateboarding was born. The earliest skateboarding was to tie roller skates to a board to see who could stay on the skateboard the longest. After years of inheritance and innovation, skateboarding has developed into a high-energy pleading sport that fully tests people's balance, flexibility and skills. Professional skateboarders will inevitably go through hard practice in order to make one action after another on skateboarding, and they will also adopt some unusual practice methods and stick to their own situation.
Bob Burnquist, a world-famous skateboarder, invented a peculiar exercise and lifestyle, the secret of which is proper exercise, healthy diet and drinking plenty of water. Burnquist said, "I am very vigilant about my diet and make sure that every food I eat is good for my health." At the same time, I also drink a lot of water every day. Water is what sports listeners are most afraid of eating too much. "
Balance exercise is the key.
Skateboarding is a sport that requires high physical quality, especially the balance, coordination and flexibility of people. In order to better adapt their bodies to "life on the board", most skateboarders in the world, including Burnquist, use a kind of fitness equipment called "Indian board" to practice. This "Indian plate" is actually very simple, that is, a flat plate is installed on a cylindrical wheel. By practicing on it, people can improve their balance ability, and at the same time, they can fully exercise related muscles and keep their bodies tight.
For skateboarders, insisting on weight is an important part. Excessive size and weight will make them more flexible. Burnquist's method is to do strength exercises with moderate and light weights, while in the family gym, Burnquist invented squats, abdominal exercises and even played solid balls on the "Indian board". When standing on the ground to practice, Burnquist usually improves his flexibility and flexibility through practice. In aerobic exercise, he often uses indoor cycling, which can effectively protect his knee joint.
"It's best to cross these exercises," Burnquist concluded. "You must find the most suitable and favorite way to make the exercises interesting." Born in Brazil, Burnquist has lived in California for several years. He inevitably fell in love with surfing like a local. "That's a rather tiring thing."
Learn skills from cats
Maybe a little. In his spare time, Burnquist will do another thing that sounds crazy-skydiving. In fact, in the past two years, he has jumped from the air more than 400 times. "The biggest advantage of skydiving is that I can accurately judge the distance from the ground in the air," Burnquist said. "It makes it easy for me to do a lot of aerial movements while skateboarding."
Even as a world-class skateboarder, Burnquist often falls while skateboarding, and bruises and bruises are common. Therefore, he thinks that how to enhance the holding ability in the air is a crucial link to avoid falling as much as possible. Burnquist, a clever man, was greatly inspired by cats. After careful observation, he found that the cat was flexible and soft when it landed, so Burnquist concluded: "When I fell, I tried my best to land, not to tighten my muscles. Of course, this requires a cool head and better flexibility. "
At present, one of the more popular skateboarding sports is "wind surfing", which blows strong winds from a huge vertical wind tunnel to keep people in the air. This method can better temper people's firmness and balance in the air. "This is really interesting," Burnquist said. This thing makes me exercise some muscles that I haven't practiced before, which makes me more comfortable in skateboarding.
