Luke Wester-
Hi I am stoked about this site its awesome! I would like to introduce myself as an extreme athlete who is working on making his dream come true, which is to surf the biggest waves around the world. I am into one of the most extreme and dangerous sports out there. Surfing giant waves in the 20-60 foot range. Falling on one of these waves can be life changing if not fatal. You have to hold your breath while take a very physical beating and be prepared to stay under water for a long time. I have to mentally be prepared for such tests of endurance and physically.
To prepare myself I am on an adult swim team, with professional tri athletes, graduated collage swimmers, and very advanced swimmers, we train 3 times a week. We swim anywhere from 3500 to 5500 yards on a given day. I go to the gym or use my home gym setup on a daily basis. I surf on a daily basis. This combined with work 8 hours a day (as a Plant Health Care Technician for Davey Tree Comp.) takes its toll but it is what I have to do if I want to rise to the top in the big wave surfing profession. I have a clothing sponsor (Division 26) and a few other sponsors who are supporting my dream but within the following years my goal is to be sponsored by bigger sponsors like billabong and quicksilver who will travel me around the world to surf the biggest waves on the globe.
When I started my training for Big Wave Surfing I was not using any type of supplementation. To get to the point I could not stay focused at work I was tired and very fatigued throughout the day. I knew I needed supplementation if I was to make it through my daily activities. I have been using a variety of supplementation that has made all the difference in the world and now I am that person at work with all the energy. Plus my body is recovering and building lean muscle fast.
To end I would like to tell you about where I live it is in San Francisco 10 blocks from the ocean. I live 25 minutes away from Mavericks which is considered one of the biggest and meanest waves in the world. I surf this spot anytime it is breaking. I have broken two boards here. If you go to this link I am in the end of this video showing me fall on one of these waves and they interview me with my broken board afterwards. http://www.surfline.com/video/featured-clips/mavericks-opening-day_38681 check it out its only about 5 minutes you will see my name appear in the bottom left corner of the screen. I am for real about my dreams and goals and they will come true. Supplementation is what is needed to achieve these goals and this site Mixersnutrition.com is the place to learn about what supplementation will work for you. Stay Positive my friends and as surfers like to say Aloha.
