First of all...welcome to Underwave! We are here to help you achieve your biggest potential in the ocean, connect with like-minded people, and build a strong surfing community. Before we share with you the step-by-step to start your journey, we want to talk about Underwave´s principles, which will accompany you throughout this experience: 1.CONSISTENCY IS KING 👑 If you want to see a transformation in your surfing, your physical capacities, and your life, you need to understand that being consistent and showing up is the MOST IMPORTANT SKILL to have. Major transformations only happen when we consistently follow through with our goals. 2. DON´T BE A LONE WOLF 🐺 The biggest rule regarding Breath Hold Training is to NEVER DO IT ALONE IN THE WATER. Under no circumstance should we practice breath-holding in the water if we have no training buddy or supervision. One of our biggest missions is to spread our deep love for breath holding and all the benefits that WE KNOW it provides, but it is as important to do it responsibly. If you do not have anyone to train with, you can always train outside of the water! 3. 70% MENTAL 30% PHYSICAL 🧠 Do you want to hold your breath for longer? Do you want to charge bigger waves? Do you want to feel calm and in control even when the ocean is throwing everything at you? Then you need to understand that, as physical as surfing and breath-holding are, it is also EXTREMELY MENTAL. And that is why we hold our breath: because breath-holding is one of the most effective and powerful ways we have to train our minds. We could say training Apnea is like going to the MIND GYM, so get ready to strengthen the most important muscle of your body. ------------------------------------------- ⬇️ To start your transformative surfing experience, follow the steps below: 1.
