Total Surfing Fitness program

By John Smithers

I have used and tried several different training programs over the last few years. Some of them I purchased online and some from my local gym, very few has impressed me, or showed me anything new. So I wasn't overly excited when I first heard about Total Surfing Fitness. But when more and more of my surfing buddies started to talk about the quick results they were getting I decided to have a look for myself.

The program is 12 weeks long, I have been doing it for about 5 weeks now and love every part of it, but more importantly, my surfing is better than ever! 5 weeks into the program I was already getting results:

- I was able to stay in the surf a lot longer each session before getting tired

- Getting heaps more waves due to increased paddling strength resulting in more fun surf sessions.

- Great increase in flexibility, I have always been very stiff, trying all sorts of stretches, but this really worked

- Surfing technique and board control through technical maneuvers

- Rediscovered the love for surfing!

So what makes Total Surfing Fitness such a unique program? For one it is designed specifically for surfers by surfers. Clayton Beatty, whom is behind the program is a certified personal trainer with a bachelors degree in exercise & health science, as well as a super keen surfer that knows exactly what it takes to get the best waves.

So is this program for you? Well if you want to surf with more power, more flow and better technique I recommend that you give it a go.

This program also comes with some really good bonuses.

One showing a quick powerful workout for the outdoors. It also includes a fitness test for surfers measuring your balance, core strength and upper body strength. This is very helpful for improving your weak areas with some powerful exercises.

There is also really useful information on nutrition, different fats and their effect on your health.

There is one bonus that I really like. The "turbulence training" workout. This routine is very powerful and well described with photos and clear explanations exactly how to get quick results. - 16463
