OK, so SUPing is more than just great fun, but the reality is that most people SUP for the unique thrill that comes from standing on the water. There are lots of ways to get a workout, but once you experience the feeling of truly "walking on water", you will be hooked for good. Whether you are on the ocean, lakes or rivers, SUPing is undeniably fun.
SUPing is a great addition to your cardio routine. And while you are working up a sweat, you are working the hard-to-target muscle groups of the upper- and fore-arms as you paddle.
SUPing strengthens muscles you didn't even know you had. The subtle core body movements required to balance the board challenge muscle groups that are not easy to target with traditional exercise.
If surfing is your thing, nothing makes for better cross-training than SUPing. Build on all the fundamentals needed to be a good surfer even when the surf is flat. Because you can SUP no matter how flat the surf is, there is no need to do battle with the surf-starved masses--Escape the crowds and find your zen beyond the breakers.
Did we mention that it's fun? Even though there are plenty of great reasons to make SUPing a part of your life, it's the sheer fun and feeling of freedom that will capture your spirit and have you hooked.
