She loves to surf
Tatiana truly enjoys what she does. “After 2 weeks of not surfing a pool session is worth gold! i love surfing 🏄🏼♀☺✨☺️ thank you @rockstarenergy @brunozanin_ 🖤🎥: @boavistavillage,” she said on Instagram (translated to english). According to Better Health, “surfing provides many health benefits including cardiovascular fitness from paddling, shoulder and back strength from the paddling, [and] leg and core strength [because] once you’re standing up on the board, strong legs and a strong core will keep you up.”
She indulges
Tatiana splurges on her favorite treats now and then, but what’s her favorite one to grab? “Ice cream, for sure. I’m a huge fan of ice cream,” she said in an interview with Free Surf Magazine. According to Northwestern Medicine, “for those on a highly restrictive, low-calorie diet, psychologists and nutritionists often believe that cheat meals allow individuals to eat better throughout the week. This planned splurge in calories often allows people to forgo other unplanned and often binge-inducing meals – meals that take much longer to bounce back from and could throw you off the wagon altogether.”
She loves the water
Even when she’s not catching a wave surfing, she loves spending time in or near the water. “I love snorkeling, and I love going on my dad’s boat. They go fishing — I’m not a big fisherwoman but I love being on the boat with my dad and brother. It makes everyone bond and it’s a fun time,” she said in an interview with Free Surf Magazine.
She does cardio
She conditions to avoid injuries of any kind, especially injuries that keep her away from surfing and the water. “For me the most important part of conditioning is being able to prevent injuries and be really ready for whatever is going to come your way. For me, that’s a lot of cardio and long surf sessions,” she said in an interview with Free Surf Magazine.
She supports women
She’s proud to be part of women’s surfing. “I think women deserve every inch and centimeter of the recognition that they’re getting now because of the fact that we’ve pushed ourselves beyond the limits of how women’s surfing has been. We’ve advanced it to a different level and I think it’s motivated both men and women alike. Women have made an amazing statement and women’s surfing will only get better from here. It’s really fun to be a part of this level of surfing right now,” she said in an interview with Free Surf Magazine.
