Surfing Proven To Give You A Confidence Boost
We have all seen those surfer types, strutting their stuff on the beach and making everything they do look effortless. I’m sure you’ve asked yourself if it’s something in the water that gives them their confidence or could it be those long surfboards inflating their self-esteem? Well now surfing can claim the title of the most confidence enhancing sport of all, after new research from Exeter University in England proves it categorically.
Before we examine the reasons why surfing is so good for your ego, let’s explain just how the research was conducted. 20 sports were tested overall and around 200 people took part who did not take part in regular sport themselves. A psychology test was used to measure confidence and was filled in by the participants both before and after they had completed their 3 month involvement in a certain sport. The research concluded that the participants who recorded the most improved marks on their confidence tests were the surfers, and by quite a margin.
Surfing is a sport that promotes confidence on a variety of different levels according to the Exeter University students who conducted the confidence study. Firstly the sport is very environmentally-oriented and people find themselves often battling the elements rather than other surfers. Steve Underfield of the Sports and Exercise Sciences Departments states that gaining control of outdoor surroundings is very empowering and gives people the feeling that they can look after themselves even somewhere traditionally outside of their comfort zone. Further more, surfing is a very physically demanding sport and participants gain confidence from not only being fitter but looking fitter to others. Surfers often get a good tan from all their time outside and this again makes them look healthier. Another reason that surfing helps people become more self-assured it that it has ethos of laid back, happy-go-lucky confidence at all times, which is something that rubs off on new comers very quickly indeed.
Runner up in the list of most confidence building sports was cycling, so if you’re in need of an ego boost grab your surfboards or mountain bikes, get outside, and start training today
