These Cheap Exercise Sliders Have 3,000+ Rave Reviews for Boosting Any Home Workout

Don't let their colorful, Instagram-friendly appearance fool you: Exercise sliders pack a serious punch, amplifying bodyweight exercises and making you feel the burn. They're one of the most convenient tools for at-home workouts because they're super affordable and compact, and you can use them to work your entire body by incorporating them into nearly any bodyweight move.

Amazon customers swear by the Elite Sportz Equipment Core Exercise Sliders because they're lightweight, versatile, and practical — a dream combination. They're calling the $10 sliders a "fantastic piece of workout gear" for taking their sweat sessions to the next level, and say they appreciate how the products "work like a charm without being too hard on your wallet."

The Elite Sportz Equipment Core Exercise Sliders work on almost all surfaces; use the hard plastic side on soft surfaces like carpet and the foam side on hard floors like wood or tile. That means you can use them to sneak in a quick workout on your kitchen floor while watching TV or cooking. Plus, the sliders are available in vibrant shades of pink, purple, yellow, and green — because who says workout gear has to be boring?

Unsure what to do with them, exactly? The package comes with a URL for free instructional and workout videos, which reviewers said they "love" and are "informative, thorough," and "a great help." Several reviewers commented that they're surprised at exactly how useful these are, and it's true: With the Elite Sportz Equipment Core Exercise Sliders, the workout possibilities are truly endless. Place your toes on the sliders while in a plank to further engage your core, then try moves like mountain climbers and alligator walks. While standing, place one foot on a slider and do lateral, forward, or reverse lunges. Or, place one hand on a slider to add intensity to push-ups. And when you're craving some cardio, you can try doing side-to-side skaters with them. (Try this 20-minute full-body sliders workout or this legs-and-butt slider routine to get a taste.)
