The goal of SURGE Strength is simple: Build Better Athletes to Generate Faster Swimmers. And you can learn more about their dryland training programs, becoming dryland certified or enrolling in a FREE Dryland 101 Course at surgestrength.com.

At RITTER Sports Performance we've been building remote dryland workouts for swimmers and swim teams, via app, for over a decade. But we knew that just sending programs wasn't going to make a big enough impact. Yes, the swimmers and swim teams we work with have seen results. But especially as the shutdown started, it became clear to us that there's a long way to go in terms of dryland knowledge in the swimming community. That's where SURGE Strength comes into play. This dryland specific brand, website, and offerings have allowed us to continue to pursue our purpose of “Raising the Standard in Dryland Training for Swimming.”

After doing well in local races she was recruited by a  women's team, Asahi Muur Zero (now disbanded). She rode with them for three years and did several international UCI stage races in China, Thailand, and the US (Joe Martin Stage Race and Tour of the Gila, 2016).  After returning to the US at the end of 2016 she followed a more structured training program and experienced big increases in my endurance, power and fitness.  I prefer long and hilly gran fondo and road race courses, and in 2021 also started riding gravel.
