Long Island Surf Lessons

On this Tuesday’s surfing blog post, we will be covering the benefits of surfing and some local Long Island surf spots. To start, a common misconception about surfing is that it is a relaxing activity, when in reality surfing is an extremely physically demanding activity. Long Island surf lessons for people of all ages have numerous benefits and are are a great summer time activity.

Work Out

Surfing burns around 500- 600 calories an hour using many muscles in the process. The main muscles used will be your back and shoulders. Your core and lower body are involved  as much as the back and shoulder. Paddling will be the activity that uses the most amount of your energy. Prior to getting in the water, make sure to stretch your full body. This way you can stay surfing in the water longer and avoid injury.

Being in the ocean can have strong calming effects.  Great way to unplug from the day-to-day stresses that we all experience. Once you get pass the wave break zone, you can now relax and enjoy the scenery. Now we catch a wave. Once you catch a wave, especially your first wave, you forget all the effort and energy you put into catching that wave. Surfing is bliss.
