Roller Derby Athletics: Your Pocket-Sized Cross-Training Coach
Struggling to balance derby practice, gym sessions, and life? I’ve been there—until I discovered Roller Derby Athletics. As a skater myself, I know how crucial off-skate strength and agility are for nailing those jams and holding the line. This app feels like having a seasoned derby vet right in your pocket, tailoring workouts to make you stronger, faster, and more unbreakable.
Quick, Effective Workouts
No time? I get it. Between work and practice, some days it’s hard to squeeze in a session. That’s why I love that most workouts here are 45 minutes or less—no fancy equipment needed. I’ve done core circuits in my living room and agility drills at the park. And if you’re a gym rat, they’ve got weight-based routines too. The scheduling tool is a game-changer; plan your week ahead, and your workout is ready when you are.
Flexible Training Plans
Whether you’re a self-motivated skater or need more guidance, Roller Derby Athletics has you covered. I started with the Essential Plan, picking workouts based on how my body felt each day. When I upgraded to the MVP Plan, the personalized programming took my training to the next level—focusing on my weak spots and derby goals. Plus, rescheduling is a breeze with the in-app tool. Life happens; your training shouldn’t suffer for it.
Workouts for Every Need
From strength and power to HIIT and recovery, this library has it all. I especially appreciate the on-skate drills—they’ve upped my edgework and stability big time. The video demonstrations are crystal clear, showing proper form and modifications. Whether I’m going light on recovery days or pushing intense intervals, I always feel supported.
All-in-One Training Hub
This app doesn’t just stop at workouts. I log my practices, scrimmages, and even outdoor skates here. Checking off sessions and adding notes helps me track progress and reflect on what’s working. And syncing with MyFitnessPal? Seamless. It’s my central command for everything derby and fitness.
The Bottom Line
Roller Derby Athletics is a must-have for skaters who are serious about leveling up. It’s practical, motivating, and built by someone who gets the sport. The only thing I’d wish for? Maybe more sport-specific mobility routines. But honestly, it’s close to perfect. If you want to feel unstoppable on and off the track, give this app a roll.
