We're all paddlers

The weeks are passing fast now and I think I'm doing pretty well on my workout. It's important to me to get in good shape for Bali this summer. I had to learn it the hard way that surfers are actually more paddlers than surfers. Last year I went to Hossegor (France) and hadn't been surfing for a long time. It was really frustrating to have to leave the water after a few hours just because my arms were almost falling off... Shouldn't happen this year though. I'm training five to six times a week for about three months now... At first I just focus on endurance, but after a while it got boring and I started to add quite some weight lifting to my daily routine.

The most important thing that I changed though was my nutrition. I dropped most things with sugar from my food plan and replaced it with stuff that contains lots of proteins. And no more coke, no more soda - just water, lots of water. So now, about 15 weeks after I started, I gained about 8 kg of muscle mass:




Oh and I almost forgot, today I finally got my flight confirmation! I'll be flying from Zürich with Singapore Airlines on the 12 of June. It'll be a hell of a long flight, but I'm sure that every second inside the plane will be worth it.
