"ONE WAVE A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY"

Surfing affects both our physical shape and our mental healthl. When surfing, we are in contact with nature and a connection with our mother earth is created that only translates into benefits. When we enter the water we forget about the outside world and it is a way to release stress, release adrenaline and feel peace. The combination of sun, sea and air together with the sensation of sliding down the wall of a wave makes us release hormones such as dopamine, endorphins, and the hormone of happiness: serotonin.

But in addition to its many mental benefits, surfing is the best prescription your doctor can give you. It is a medicine that nature gives us and we have to know how to take advantage of it. These are the changes you will notice as soon as you start surfing:

1. A STRONGER HEART

Surfing improves blood flow, the state of blood lipids and blood pressure, which leads to better heart function and, therefore, nervous system activity, providing relaxation and well-being.

2. MORE TONED MUSCLES

Here is the answer to why all surfers boast of a great body. By being on the board we strengthen our muscles, especially in the central area of ​​the body (abdomen), since when maneuvering it is the area of ​​the body that makes the most effort. But not only the abdomen, but also the legs, arms and back, both when rowing and when standing on the board. The more muscle mass, the lower the risk of injury.

3. GREATER AEROBIC CAPACITY

By surfing, many calories are burned and, therefore, adipose tissue is reduced. But in addition, you will improve your aerobic capacity. From the first moment you will notice a great evolution in balance, flexibility, resistance, coordination and even breathing.

4. YOU WILL REST BETTER

When training under the sun, you are constantly paddling, fighting for the best wave, standing up, falling down... In short, you don't stop still. In this way melatonin is released. Try surfing one afternoon and you will see how at the end of the session your body screams for you to take the bed.

5. FORGET ABOUT COLDS

Salty sea water is the key to medicinal surfing. Salt water acts as a natural exfoliant, helping cell regeneration. In addition, it regulates blood pressure and removes mucus from the lungs, saying goodbye to congestion.

These are all the benefits that you will notice shortly after starting in this sport. We are not lying, surfing is one of our secrets to enjoy a healthy life and not get sick. Of the happiness that the sea causes us, we don't even need to repeat it. In the Indian face we are clear: a life near the sea is a happier life.
