Rip Curl x FitOn: Get Fit (Or Fitter) For Surfing With These Pro-Surfer Workouts
We’ve created a surf-specific workout series featuring Tyler Wright, Victoria Vergara and Molly Picklum.
Surfing isn't just a sport; it's a lifestyle, a connection to the outdoors, and a full-body workout like no other. Every wave ridden requires strength, balance, and a deep well of patience and practice. And the best part? The more you surf, the fitter and healthier you become. To help fast-track your pathway to surfing greatness (or maybe just to help you stay in the water a little longer before your arms give out), we’ve collaborated with FitOn - the world’s number 1 fitness app - to bring you an exclusive series of surf-specifc workouts featuring some of the most talented surfers on the planet, including Tyler Wright, Molly Picklum, and Victoria Vergara.
Here are 5 compelling reasons why you should be exercising for surfing:
- Core Strength: Surfing engages your entire core, and a strong core is the key to stability and control on the board.
- Balance: Maintaining equilibrium on a constantly moving surface is not easy, and yet is essential for the sport of surfing. Targeted exercises can help you master it.
- Flexibility: A flexible body can help you flow with the water and perform maneuvers with greater ease.
- Endurance: Surfing requires stamina to paddle out, catch waves, and stay out longer, which is where fitness plays a crucial role.
- Injury Prevention: By strengthening the muscles used in surfing, you can reduce the risk of common injuries associated with the sport.
These surf-specific workouts encompass dynamic movements that will enhance your flexibility, build strength, and serve as perfect warm-up or cool-down routines for surfing.
