Empower-your-surf-vacations

There are a lot of reasons to empower your body in your surf vacations, and if you love this sport, there is no reason why you should not try to learn it to stay fit and enjoy one of the best exercises to do outdoors in summer. But, of course, you’ll need good physical condition, at least if you spend a lot of time surfing the waves.

Surfing has long been associated with intrepid athletes who love adrenaline. Today, it’s known that it is an excellent physical activity to improve fitness and health, which plays an essential role when you try to get the best physical and mental well-being.

So, at Perfect Sunset School, we would love to share why you should stay with us and empower your surf vacations.

 Contact us. It will be a pleasure to help you.

How do we build our surf classes?

If you want to empower your surf vacations, you must understand physical preparation. Physical preparation is a planned and structured program that guides the athlete to adapt as best as possible to the specific characteristics of the sport they practice or to achieve their personal goals at a physical level as they progress through the program itself.

Physical preparation for surfers should include exercises that help the surfer assimilate the surfing activity. In addition, in the case of surfing, its recommended to propose exercises out of the water to avoid injuries and achieve a more lasting practice in addition to gaining more powerful surfing.

Any complementary physical activity will make you perform at a better level if you compare it with doing nothing else, and this is how functional training in surfing, stretching for surfers, or yoga for surfing was born. However, putting the word surfing at the end of any activity is not the same as carrying out a structured plan to achieve a particular goal.

So, if you want to know how surfing is trained, you should know that the surfer’s physical preparation should include:

  1. Mobility exercises.
  2. Cardiovascular exercise.
  3. Strength exercises.
  4. Technique exercises.
  5. Tactical exercises.

What do we exercise?

Depending on your level and the type of surfing you do or aim to achieve, you will exercise some structures and others of your body. Think for a moment. It’s not the same to make a turn in a wave with strength and power as a turn in calm conditions or in the wave section that your level allows you (flatter areas of the wave).

Each type of maneuver has different physical demands; for example, leg strength would be decisive. 

In your surf vacations, you’ll empower:

  1. Cardiovascular capacity.
  2. The strength in the legs.
  3. The strength resistance in the shoulder girdle (shoulder area).
  4. Stabilizing muscles of the trunk and back.

Surfing is a sport that demands a great deal of energy from the surfer. So, you’ll need a high cardiovascular capacity to face more challenging conditions. But on the other hand, while going for a run every day will help you endure longer or harder sessions, it won’t help you surf better.

To surf better, you’ll first have to make your body capable of adapting to all the positions that surfing requires. Perhaps through what is known as functional training for surfing. But we just want to clarify that you’ll never be able to turn the top of the wave with full speed and fluidity if you can’t squat deep in a room.

Once your body adapts to the positions that surfing maneuvers require when you surf, you have to recognize what posture and with what level of energy you should perform depending on the wave type and the force it transmits. In addition, you must adapt to the kind of board and fin system you are using at the time.

Don’t worry. At Perfect Sunset School, we have prepared teachers and the perfect functional gym for surfers to offer you the best routines to empower your surf vacations. 

Reason to empower your surf vacations

  1. It´s a high-intensity exercise and burns a lot of calories

Surfing works most muscle groups, which is why experts recommend it to maintain good physical shape and tone and strengthen the body. It improves balance, coordination, flexibility, and endurance. It can be considered a high-intensity exercise that can burn around 400 calories in an hour. 

  1. Improve your self-esteem

Another study also concluded that this sport improves the perception of oneself. But, of course, this is the regular practice of any, especially one that takes place outdoors, since, in addition to the endorphins, hormones of well-being, which are secreted, when we carry out physical activity regularly and improve the physical form, there is a feeling of satisfaction. This, together with motivation, discipline, and the achievement of produced results, improves our concept of ourselves.

  1. Suitable for everyone and at any age

Contrary to popular belief, surfing is not a sport just for young people. On the contrary, it’s practiced by people of all ages, but you must be in good physical condition. So, we can’t think of a better reason to improve your skills with us on your surf vacation.

  1. More defenses, less appetite, and better sleep

Like any exercise, regular surfing helps to improve your entire body and strengthen the immune system. It also facilitates the release of substances involved in appetite and sleep control, so in addition to burning calories, it will make you feel less hungry and improve your relationship with food.

It also regulates the sleep cycle. So, if you spend your surf vacation with us, you’ll sleep like a king or queen.
