High-Performance Training with Ian Walsh
Before winter, Walsh follows a really hard training program of six weeks which includes five extra-days where he only trains his breathing doing static apnea, holding the air as much as possible.
High-performance training has allowed Ian Walsh to face every wave, from the ones in Maui to the ones in Teahupoo, and he has received recognition for it. He has trained so hard, as you can see in the video below.
In the video, you will find 5 basic exercises that may help you to improve some of the most important surf movements: rowing, diving, speed, rotation and equilibrium.
In addition, he performs dives, he surfs and he goes to the gym every morning for 2 or 3 hours. Then, after lunch, he rides 60 kilometers on a bike. And, in some occasions, at the end of the day, he does some Pilates or Yoga when there aren’t big waves to be surfed.
