Surfing requires an extreme\u00a0amount of <a title=\"core training\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/02\/top-10-core-exercises\/\" target=\"_self\">core strength<\/a>, stability,\u00a0and\u00a0balance\u00a0as well as upper and lower body strength. If you have never been surfing,\u00a0I totally recommend it. It is a great way to get away from the stresses of the\u00a0world and to enjoy nature at its best.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, safety is a big issue, but if you take a lesson or play it safe you will be\u00a0more than fine. I also recommend starting with a long board then\u00a0upgrading to a shorter one\u00a0once you get better.<\/p>\n<p>Below is a <a title=\"total body workout\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/03\/swim-for-an-effective-total-body-workout\/\" target=\"_self\">total body workout<\/a> that I have put together to strengthen the muscles and parts of the body necessary\u00a0to concur the sport of surfing. I have incorporated\u00a0several core movements as well as\u00a0upper and lower body\u00a0exercises.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The upper body exercises are designed to increase the\u00a0muscular strength and <a title=\"endurance training\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/tag\/endurance-training\/\" target=\"_self\">endurance<\/a> of the chest, back, shoulders, biceps, and triceps. The lower body exercises are designed to increase the muscular strength and endurance of quads, hamstrings, glutes, hips, and calves (all of which are put to the test during surfing). I recommend performing two or three set\u00a0of 10 to 20 repetitions.\u00a0Good luck and enjoy!!<\/p>\n<p><script src=\"http:\/\/www.physicalfitnet.com\/video_syndication\/embed\/js.aspx?chid=504&amp;pid=7CD58ACC584612579209C593BF6B6F47\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I moved to California a little over a month ago and have picked up the hobby of surfing.
