How does rollerblading differ from roller skating (shoes?)/other manners of roller skating for weight loss?

due to an ankle break two years ago, i gained a lot of weight in the front of my body. i%26#039;m 54 and the sucka won%26#039;t get me down, but i want to change it.





when a kid, i both ice skated and roller skated. the skates that we used here had 4 wheels per skate and a key. you%26#039;d use the key to clamp the skates onto standard shoes with separate shoe and sole. it was easy to skate, the skates lasted a long time since you really did not need different sizes each time your shoe size changed, and all you%26#039;d need do to stop is put one toe inwards to the other foot. we had few spills.





when i watch someone rollerblading (is that the same as %26quot;inline skating%26quot;?) outside on the sidewalk, i can see that the stomach area and waistline, at least, seem to get a good workout.





what about the abdominal muscles? is roller skating or rollerblading a good form of exercise to reduce fat in the belly area? TO BE CONTINUED BELOW:

How does rollerblading differ from roller skating (shoes?)/other manners of roller skating for weight loss?
rollerblading is essientially the same as roller skates, with the exception that you have to buy a %26#039;whole shoe%26#039; now. I thought, oh,. how could i do this with just a straight line of wheels, but after a few tumbles, like normal, i was fine, except, when stopping with roller blades, you put ur heel down to stop, not like the %26#039;skates%26#039; to stop you put your toes down.





make sure ur get pads! no matter how old, those falls hurt!











dont get %26#039;heelys%26#039;, cause they do long term ankle damage and well it sounds like you don%26#039;t need anything more to happen. also , the HARD shell rolllerblades comfort your ankle and support it better than the soft ones, and i perfer those, but i am 25 and i feel older than i am, lol.








sizes normally run a bit bigger, but just try different types on. I go to walmart, target. etc... you don%26#039;t want a real expensive pr just to start out with. I wear a 7 1/2 w, women, but in rollerblades, i wear a boys 4.
Reply:i want to try rollerblading! itd be fun!!!
