Today we’re chatting with Seychelle, professional stand up paddle board (SUP) racer. A few months ago, Seychelle won the ICF World Championships 200m Sprint race only a few months after also winning two 70 mile and 80 mile endurance events. We chat about different SUP disciplines and the topic of specialisation. Seychelle tells us how it really is possible to do it all, and we learn more about the physiological requirements for different types of paddling.
Seychelle shares her insights on strength training for SUP racing and tells us all about SUP Stroke School, a program that focuses on improving stroke technique for paddlers of all levels. She explains how she practices drills introduces her app, which offers videos and a supportive community.
Seychelle has some exciting upcoming events and training camps, including a women's SUP and Love retreat and clinic dates in the UK. Seychelle reflects on her journey as a paddler, including her transformational year in 2019 and the importance of embracing different phases of life and finding joy in the present moment.
