A slant board is a piece of gym equipment that has been gaining popularity in recent years, and for good reason. This versatile tool can be used for a variety of exercises that target different muscles, all while providing unique benefits to the body.
At Bulldog Gym, we are proud to announce the arrival of our new Rogue slant board. Our slant board has a fixed angle of 30 degrees, which makes it perfect for a variety of exercises.
Benefits of Using a Slant Board
One of the primary benefits of using a slant board is that it allows you to change the angle of your workout. This helps to target specific muscles and can increase the intensity of your exercise. Additionally, using a slant board can help to improve your balance and stability, as well as increase flexibility.
Exercises You Can Do on a Slant Board
There are a variety of exercises that you can do on a slant board, each targeting different muscles. Here are a few examples:
- Squats: Stand on the slant board with your toes pointed slightly outward. Lower yourself into a squat position, keeping your knees behind your toes. This exercise will target your quads, glutes, and hamstrings.
- Hack Squats: Stand on the slant board with your toes pointed forward and your feet shoulder-width apart. Lower yourself into a squat position, keeping your back straight and your knees behind your toes. This exercise will target your quads, glutes, and hamstrings.
- Calf Raises: Stand on the slant board with your heels hanging off the edge. Rise up onto your toes, then lower yourself back down. This exercise will target your calves.
- Push-Ups: Place your hands on the slant board with your feet on the ground. Lower yourself into a push-up, keeping your core engaged. This exercise will target your chest, shoulders, and triceps.
- Dips: Place your hands on the slant board behind you, with your feet on the ground. Lower yourself down, then push back up. This exercise will target your triceps.
- Calf Stretch: Stand on the slant board with your toes on the board and your heels on the ground. Slowly lower your heels down, feeling the stretch in your calves. Hold for a few seconds before raising your heels back up. This exercise will help to stretch out your calves.
