JBSKATING continues to evolve. With each generation, something new comes, something old fades. Many have noticed that most of us do the Big Wheel a bit differently during sessions. It’s not a big change, but it is noticeable. What should we call it?? Do exactly what you want, reinvent the big wheel.

When those lungs start to burn and those legs get sore, push. That’s when you get the most training. Rest for a bit and then do a little more after. This doesn’t mean to continue pushing your body as hard as you can or to continue trying jumps after your body is completely fatigued. It simply means that after you have realized that you have gotten tired, don’t stop training. Take a break then do a little more, do something else. This push will make you much stronger. You’ll go past your current limits.
Take a look outside in Chicago and you will see gray skies and brisk breezes. The winter weather is making a slow exit from the city as usual.
We are weeks into the month of May and old man winter still has a light grip on the city. I had to turn the heat on inside of my home at night and inside of my car on my way to work. This is rich for the summer, cold air in May.
AC Turned Off in May
This is crazy. We have reached the end of May and the weather is still chilly outside. I’m running the heat in my car and in my home to keep warm in the summer month of May. This is the wildest thing ever. The winter weather still has a strong grip on the Chicago climate. Over the past week, there has been a lot of rain and some severe thunderstorms. Trees were stripped of leaves and branches yesterday. Broken tree limbs litter many of the streets and sidewalks. Piles of wet leaves gather on the corners of the roadways.
Let us know when you are visiting Chicago. Tune in on a regular basis to stay up to date with the city. Get helpful tips like traffic info, driving trends, places to go and places to avoid.
Mark your calendar and get on the road, we are here to make the journey easier.
You are stronger when you stretch. You get wider range of motion and more strength in that range. Get used to stretching multiple times per day, everyday. Stretching once a week is not enough. You must be consistent. Incorporate stretches into your daily routine. Stretch those joints.
Daily Muscle Stretch Routine
Make stretching a permanent part of your daily routine. There are so many benefits to starting and ending your day with a good stretch. Plan it into your schedule so that you can give yourself adequate time to work on your body.
Stretch Those Ligaments
People forget about the parts that connect the muscle to the rest of the body. It takes much longer to get those ligaments limber after they have gone stiff.
I’ll tell you all about what I’m doing to train my jumps. I still don’t have an axel or a clean jump for that matter but the improvements are happening. Those daily squats are mandatory. Get em in!! Get those jumps!!
We have a few new gods on the team. What does the future have in store for them. Well, that is being planned. For now, all of the new team members are showing their commitment and consistency with their presence at JBSKATE sessions in Chicago.
