Surfing is great way to keep yourself fit, but like any sport, it can also take its toll on your body. You need to look after yourself to ensure you will still be surfing ten, twenty, or even thirty or more years in the future. You can increase the chances that you will still be surfing in your retirement by making sure that you follow a good training plan. Taking the time to work on balanced muscle strengthening activities in between surf sessions, and making sure that you warm up first and cool down afterwards, can reduce the risk of injury and keep you fit enough to surf. You should also make sure that you’re giving your body enough time to recover after a workout. Many surfers would happily spend all their time in the water, if they could; overtraining can be just as dangerous as jumping straight into a tough surf session without making sure you’re fit enough first.
