I have a short video for you today, this time showing 10x world champion Kelly Slater doing a workout.
In the video Kelly talks about how he has been able to keep surfing at a high level for so long (still beating the young guys).
Part of the reason he can do this is because he keeps his body fit and healthy. I get regular emails from my clients (especially from the 40+ crowd) telling me how getting back into a surf specific fitness routine has helped them wind back the clock and surf like they were in their twenties again.
Are you looking after your body? Don't you want to be able to surf for decades to come?
Doing a surf specific fitness program can help you recover from injuries and get fitter and stronger in as little as 2-3 workouts per week
If you are not on a program already,Total Fitness Surfing is really comprehensive surf fitness program available on the internet. It is also progressive, so you can start with the basics and build up your surfing fitness level.
Have a read of some of the feedback I have received from clients...
"My Brother gave me Total Surfing Fitness, as he said "I'm sick of hearing you say how unfit you are after your surfs."
Unfortunately these days due to commitments, I have become my own worst enemy - have become the dreaded weekend surfer-you know the type where we stay out in the water for as much time as we can and try to absorb as much as we can as we don't when the our next "fix" will be. (When I was younger these were the guys that I used to say " ya poor bastards" after just coming in from surfing my 6 or 7 session that week.
Due to my surfing "irregularity" these days you could have imagined how difficult and frustrating it was becoming, especially when the surf was pumping, where it required a high amount of endurance and strength. Thus the better the surf the more frustrated I got, until...
My Brother was using your core strength and fitness techniques and introduced me to them, lets just say both of us have not looked back. It is especially good because we keep each other motivated.The exercises have paid ten fold!!!
Last sunday we got some decent swell, and I noticed the difference as soon as I jumped on- (especially the paddling power,which was my weakness) but now I plow my way out there!
I truly feel I have gained positive effect and feel allot more amped to charge harder."
Cheers
