Nat Young building both physical and mental strength in the gym.
Professional surfing has, well, gone pro. Now today’s top surfers aren’t just living the dream and traveling the world (although they still are doing that); they’re also working their asses off. No doubt there’s still plenty of fun to be had on the dream tour, but nowadays, these competitors cross-train as hard as any other breed of professional athlete. Strength training, cardio, breath training, yoga, you name it, there’s a top 34 surfer (or top 17) who’s tried it. It’s no secret that fitness has become a huge part of the game. However, in this video, world #10 Nat Young talks about how training isn’t just for your body; it’s for your mind. See how Nat builds confidence and resolve through training, and get a glimpse into the mind of one of surfing’s elite competitors.
