Laird Hamilton

If you’re a fan of wave surfers, you probably know who Laird Hamilton is. His extraordinary skills in surfing brought him much success in life. When asked how old he feels, notable big-wave surfer and overall crazy-in-shape athlete Laird Hamilton says, “I don’t even have an age. I don’t know how I could feel better.” And though the second statement can’t be fact-checked, the first can. He’s 53, at least in the conventionally used unit of “years.”

Aside from surfing, he also does other exercises to stay in shape. He emphasized that he includes music as part of his workout session. The 56-years-old surfer explained that music is like water that hydrates movement, so it is essential in working out. He uses saunas and even stated that his perfect workout routines are burpees and headstands. He has a strange diet, though, which mainly consists of fats and caffeine.
