Total Surfing Fitness – Review

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 surf much longer without getting tired

- I improved my paddling power resulting in getting a lot more waves, having a lot more fun!

- Flexibility, leading to smoother surfing and decreasing my chance of injury. I never thought I would be able to reach this level of flexibility this fast!

- Board control and surfing technique

- Realized how much fun surfing is again!

What makes Total Surfing Fitness different from other programs that I have tried is how specific it is to surfing. The creator of the program, Clayton Beatty is not only a keen surfer and a personal trainer. He also has a degree in exercise and health science and knows exactly what type of fitness it takes to get the most out of your surfing.

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.

With this program you will also get some good fitness e books as a bonus.

One is a surfing fitness test that determines your weak areas to know what exercises to focus on. The test measures your body strength, balance and core and also includes a powerful fast outdoor workout.

Included is also information about different kinds of food, nutrition and how what you eat effects your body.

My favorite bonus is the “turbulence training”. A powerful exercise routine that works you like nothing else. It is easy to follow with good photos and instructions.
