When most people think about exercises that work their lower body, the first thing that comes to mind are heavy lifting squat workouts.

This is for good reason – squat workouts are a great way to develop overall lower body strength and power.

However, there’s another way that can help enhance your squat workouts and that’s by implementing a synthetic ice slide board into your routine.

In this article, we will discuss the advantages of using an infused synthetic ice slide board for squatting, and provide you with some tips on how to get the most out of this exercise.

One of the biggest advantages of using a synthetic ice slide board for squats is that it allows you to isolate each leg independently.

This is important because it means that you can correct any imbalances between your left and right sides, which can help prevent injuries down the road.

Additionally, by working each leg independently, you can also make sure that each side is getting an equal amount of work – something that’s not always easy to do with traditional squats.

 

 

Lateral Squat

Return your foot as you stand back into an upright position..

Repeat this movement using the other leg.

Continue lateral squats for 30 seconds to one minute, then rest for 30 seconds to one minute before switching legs and completing the entire set.

Just be sure to adjust the height of the slide board so that it's level with your standing leg.

Doing this exercise on an incline will target your quads more than your hamstrings and glutes.

Whichever variation you choose, make sure to focus on proper form in order to get the most out of the exercise and avoid injury.
