Last week brought in some of the biggest swell I’ve experienced on the west coast in quite awhile. There really is nothing like the rawness and beauty of our coastline especially in the winter months. I’ll take the wetsuit, frigid temps and empty line-ups any day of the week over warm, tropical surf.

We experienced some wild conditions on the west coast this week. Despite the monsoon, we scored some great surf. There really is no better feeling than being out amongst the elements and raw Mother Nature. Bring on the winter storms.

Strong glutes are the key to improved performance and injury prevention in almost every sport or activity. Here are three exercises that will help to improve your overall glute strength and get those muscles firing:

1) Goblet squats with a resistance band

2) Single-leg glute bridges on a BOSU ball

3) Reverse lunge with knee drive (front foot elevated)

There is definitely some truth to this illustration. It pretty much pertains to all types of activity. So whatever motivates you, just get out there, put in the work and get s**t done. Your brain will thank you afterwards.

The great outdoors - there are countless benefits of getting outside and enjoying the best of what nature has to offer. In today’s technological world, our brains are bombarded with endless information. Getting outside and exercising amongst nature is the single best way to truly disconnect from the world and give our minds a chance to recharge.

With the arrival of fall and some much needed rain, the trails are now back in prime condition. It’s nice to see a little mud on the trails once again and water flowing through the creeks. After all, we do live on the west coast and amongst a temperate rainforest. So whatever motivates you, whether it be hiking, mountain biking, trail running, or just a casual walk in nature, make sure to get out there and explore some new terrain before winter arrives. You won’t be disappointed....
