Athletes around the world love the UltraSlide slide board for its ability to deliver intense core workouts without requiring bulky gym equipment. Whether you’re training for a sport, improving overall fitness, or looking for a portable, versatile workout, a slide board is an effective tool for building core strength, stability, and endurance.
Get Started with Core Muscle Workouts on Your Slide Board
While the UltraSlide slide board provides a full-body workout, core training is one of its biggest benefits. A strong core is essential for balance, posture, injury prevention, and athletic performance. These slide board exercises will help you maximize your core conditioning while keeping your routine engaging and effective.
Side-Plank Tucks
Planks are a classic core-strengthening exercise, but side-plank tucks take it to the next level. This move forces your core to work even harder to maintain stability while adding controlled movement.
How to perform:
- Start in a side plank position with one hand on the floor and your feet stacked on the slide board.
- Engage your core and pull both knees toward your chest, keeping your movements controlled.
- Extend your legs back out and repeat before switching sides.
Single-Leg Mountain Climbers
This variation of mountain climbers isolates each side of your core while increasing endurance and control. The sliding motion enhances muscle engagement, making it more challenging than standard mountain climbers.
How to perform:
- Get into a push-up position with your hands on the floor and your feet on the slide board.
- Keeping your core tight, slide one knee forward toward your chest while the other leg stays extended.
- Return to the starting position and repeat on the other side.
Double-Leg Pike
The double-leg pike strengthens your core by engaging the abdominals, obliques, and lower back in one fluid motion. It also improves flexibility and body control.
How to perform:
- Start in a push-up position with both feet on the slide board and hands on the floor.
- Engage your core and slide your feet toward your hands, lifting your hips into the air.
- Hold for a second, then slowly return to the starting position.
