Roll Toronto

In the past year or so, blading wellness has been getting more and more attention. It may be due to the fact that we’re more personally aware of it (being in our mid to late 20’s) or maybe it’s because a lot of older bladers are in the limelight these days. Whatever the case, it is important to take care of your body.

As rollerbladers, we put a lot of stress on our joints, muscles, and our overall physical well being. Most of us start blading at a young age and don’t think about stretching, or eating well, or even taking care of injuries. The fact of the matter is, you don’t really notice your injuries that much when you’re young. You can recover faster, and you are more interested in learning the newest grind, or lacing the big handrail in a session, than preparing your body for the torment you put it through.

This Blading Wellness series is dedicated to bringing awareness to taking care of your body. We were lucky enough to have Corey Grantham take the initiative and seek out some pro’s at the Montreal Classic this year. Corey got to sit down and have a chat with them, and see what experienced pros have to say. Choose the videos from the top bar, and form your own conclusions.
