Pro Training Fuerte!!!!

This summer was time for new little projects… I have just opened my Training Center in the north of Fuerteventura (Corralejo) together with my partner Luis de Dios “Kuky”. Kuky has been my and other pro riders (Cesar Portas, Jo Ciastula, Gianni Aragno, Soufiane Hamaini, Alvaro Onieva, Alex Pastor, Ariel Corniel, Thomas Paris…) trainer for several years now and he has helped us loads in every aspect of our professional career as competitors, and as persons. He has also been North Kiteboarding team trainer for several years… He is an amazing source of motivation for training and pushing the limits in every aspect of life and also very helpful not only as a physical and mental trainer but as a best friend.

After these years training with him and a new project he had in mind, we decided to join forces in order to create an athletic center to propose personal and adapted physical conditioning to sportive people and specially, to water sport enthusiasts. The idea of proposing a place where amateurs and pro riders could have a physical conditioning alongside with their main discipline (kite, windsurf, surf, sup…) was so attracting to me that I was 120% into helping him… This concept doesn’t really exist yet in water sports. There are no such places where the trainers are themselves long time riders and therefore know exactly what your needs are to improve your riding capacities and skills. Moreover, the perfect conditions and climate of the island of Fuerteventura makes it the perfect location for combining water sport and a training routine. A few training sessions a week combined with hours of daily ride is just the perfect combination to improve your riding. Within a few weeks the results are just amazing.

 

Pro Training Fuerte is therefore a riders driven coaching center in the North of Fuerteventura specialized in high performance and personal physical conditioning to sport amateurs and professional athletes who seek to excel in their disciplines. Water-sports oriented (kite, windsurf, surf), yet not neglecting sportsmen from other disciplines (fighting, ski, thriatlon, etc.), the coaches at PTF help sportsmen to develop and improve their skills, technique and physical condition (power, strength, coordination, flexibility, endurance…) in addition to avoid injuries.
The physical training is personalized and adapted to the level and discipline of each person and the sessions are characterized by a great atmosphere and ludic training. Wether individually or in small groups, the coach leads the session and marks the rhythm, a great source of motivation that people lack in their training routine. Sessions vary between outdoor (running up the volcano and the dunes, swimming, outdoor exercices, etc…) and indoor training at the center where different exercises such as TRX, spinning, pliometry, core, proprioception with bosus and swiss ball are used in routines to make the session the most entertaining and efficient possible.

.
One of the main activities of Pro Training Fuerte, and my part in the company, are the Kite Camps or clinics. These camps are made for enthusiastic kitesurfing amateurs who seek to improve their kiting level with the advices from a pro rider. I will be doing several camps along the year, where together with the entertaining activities Kuky will add during the week, I will coach the trainees in the water to boost their kiting level. The idea is to spend an entertaining week with us with exciting exercises to improve your ability, and learning loads of new tricks in a perfect spot such as the pristine and warm waters of Fuerteventura, and specially, in a fun and sportive environment.

Our website www.protrainingfuerte.com will be out soon but if you like the concept don’t hesitate in Liking us on our Facebook page and start making the Buzz!!

This is a nice and fun video despite the lack of conditions we found along our snowkite trip in Europe together with my friend Jeremie Tronet… It was fun since we both come from french Caribbean islands (Martinique and Guadeloupe) and specially because Jeremie had never been snowboarding or snowkiting before… he comes from the jungle and had never gone out of it!! that was the perfect opportunity… ;)

We’ve had some hard conditions in -13ºC, which was already the end of the world for us!!! But fun… So here a bit of humor, we got style, we are bringing back the tendency from the 80s and people already started wearing them in France!!! That would be cool tho, at least people won’t miss you on the mountain!!

Enjoy Jerem’s piece of art and big thanks to everyone who helped and welcomed us during our trip!! Cheers mates!!
