Fit to Surf


Overview

Not only is surfing an extremely popular male sport, it is the second fasted growing women's sport, behind golfing, and is destined to become even more popular. Surfing is also an extremely demanding sport, requiring absolute fitness for success. No wonder then, that Rocky Snyder sold thousands of copies of this book in its first, self-published edition with minimal promotion and no bookstore distribution. Fit To Surf is filled with black & white photographs and provides valuable information to the reader about how to create a personal conditioning program specific to surfing. The book is designed to help readers build more surfing strength, enhance endurance, increase balance and coordination, and reduce chances of injury. The book contains sample workouts for the home, gym, and on the water.
