However, surfing isn\u2019t just about ocean training. You can and should prepare for surfing in advance. Therefore, to make your ocean workouts more productive, we\u2019ll show you how to get ready for your surf trip in advance. So, what will you need?[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=”no” text_larger=”no”]<\/p>\n

ENDURANCE<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It\u2019s of great importance in surfing, since you\u2019ll need to rake a lot. First, getting to the line-up, breaking the surf and then, getting onto the wave. And you\u2019ll repeat all of it multiple times! If you don\u2019t want to spend yourself too quickly, cardio will help. For example: swimming, running and cycling. Swimming is most similar to rowing, because it includes the work of almost the same muscles (especially the crawl stroke). By the way, you may pay attention to scuba diving, so you learn to hold breath and feel yourself more confident while being under water, once falling off the board.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”10913″ img_size=”large” woodmart_inline=”no” parallax_scroll=”no”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=”no” text_larger=”no”]<\/p>\n

STRENGTH<\/h3>\n

Most of the time you\u2019ll need to rake in a quite unusual and uncomfortable position – bending in the back. The upper body is responsible for how you can rake on the wave and perform push-ups while getting up. Therefore, do gym exercises: push-ups, pull-ups, hyperextension sets, barbell exercises, etc. And mind your abdominals![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=”no” text_larger=”no”]<\/p>\n

STRETCHING<\/h3>\n

The better your muscles stretch and your joints bend, the easier you\u2019ll find it to stand on the board. A flexible body is your freedom of movements! Stretching also helps to avoid muscle overstrain cramps. Yoga will become an excellent form of preparation. It has a relaxing and tonic effect on our body, helping to find our own harmony.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=”no” text_larger=”no”]<\/p>\n

BALANCE<\/h3>\n

People with a well-developed vestibular, find it much easier to catch their balance on a surfboard. Balance can be mastered with the \u201cbalance board”. It\u2019s a board and cylinder simulator. First, try to put the weight from one foot to the other, squat in a surf rack and change your look direction. Sup-boarding, skateboarding, wakesurfing and wakeboarding are useful for balance training as well.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”10919″ img_size=”large” woodmart_inline=”no” parallax_scroll=”no”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=”no” text_larger=”no”]Bear it in mind that you shouldn\u2019t jump at the first video on the Internet and start practicing. There\u2019re lots of them and a great deal are off the topic. For starters, it\u2019s better to get a coach. Surfing is becoming increasingly popular and affordable. There are special schools which provide surf training, for example Surfway<\/a> in Moscow or OnegoSurf<\/a> in St. Petersburg.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=”no” text_larger=”no”]<\/p>\n

REST<\/h3>\n

We are used to living non-stop, constantly hasting somewhere and doing a bunch of things simultaneously. Upon coming here to surf, many stay in the rhythm of haste, whereas you need to chill and just relish! Therefore, we advise you to unwind and switch from the frantic rhythm of the megalopolis at least a day before the surf trip. After all, a refreshed body will bring more favor and pleasure in training, and your rested mind will come up with more ideas. Allow yourself a day to do nothing, turn off social networks, do yoga, meditate, read a book, go for a massage or a spa, choose your own way, but most importantly – chillax and switch! No doubt, you may keep that non-stop work rhythm, but you come to our surf house (or the surf school) to stay away from work! Therefore, give yourself time for a real rest, so that your body and mind relax, making the surf trip a real pleasure! Remember that surfing isn\u2019t a struggle with the elements and yourself. It\u2019s a unity with nature, a thrill from every wave you catch, so let yourself have these magnificent emotions!<\/p>\n

SLEEP<\/h3>\n

No secret that everyone and even more so an athlete, needs a proper recovery. If you sleep little and come to workouts sluggish, it\u2019ll be of no use. Therefore, be sure to have enough sleep for your regeneration. Everyone’s recovery goes differently, and each of us needs a different number of hours of sleep. Try to sleep at least 8 hours daily, and go to bed at 22-23 o\u2019clock in accordance with your biorhythms. Moreover, surf workouts most often take place in the morning and you need to get proper sleep![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=”no” text_larger=”no”]<\/p>\n

NUTRITION<\/h3>\n

Proper nutrition is crucial for a quality training. Try to get rid of useless \u201cjunk\u201d in your diet. They are fast food, carbonated drinks, buns, sausages, excess sugar and salt. Replace it all with healthy and clean foods, consume more vegetables and fruits. If it\u2019s hard to say no to sweet, replace it with nuts and dried fruits, but these should be in moderation as well. And surely, remember to drink enough water![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”10925″ img_size=”large” woodmart_inline=”no” parallax_scroll=”no”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text woodmart_inline=”no” text_larger=”no”]<\/p>\n

Well, it’s time to launch at training for your next trip! If you start getting ready for the trip in advance, a long break between surf them won\u2019t be so tangible! Once you are by the ocean, you won\u2019t need to start it all over again; you\u2019ll progress much faster. Use our tips and listen to your body. You are always welcome for our trainings! See you on the waves!<\/p>\n
