Is Your Body Holding Back Your Surf Progression?

Would a stronger & more flexible body help you to enjoy your time in the ocean?

Your fitness and health is ultimately the foundation for your surfing. So ask yourself these questions: When you get in the ocean, how does your body feel? Are you fluid, strong, and powerful? Or flailing, out of breath, and frustrated? Gassed out arms and breath? A low back that’s pissed from 30 minutes of paddling? That sounds damn frustrating. The art and skill of surfing can’t be built upon a body that is stiff, weak, overweight, and unhealthy. If that sounds like your surfing and your body, you ARE LIMITING your surfing, and YOU CAN fix that.

Radically Enhance Your Surfing by Improving Your Body

  • Move Fluidly, Athletically, & Powerfully.

    Build dynamic strength & endurance that carries over to your movement in the ocean.

  • Train using Professionally Designed Workouts.

    Follow routines so you truly benefit & improve like a surfer needs to.

    I’m a lifeguard on Oahu and an avid stand up boogie/surfer, all of your videos and knowledge has changed the game tremendously. I love sharing all your videos with my coworkers (normally they too cool for yoga or stretching but when they see and hear you it a different package entirely 😆) right on for using your knowledge to help people like me with the long game, longevity!

    Just to let you know your videos/workouts have made a difference in my surfing. I guess you could say I’m a conscious incompitent and am making the transition to a shortboard now.

    Thank you so much

    An awesome program! I still have a long way to go fitness-wise but I’m working on that using your program, as well as a local surfer’s gym. I also love that you keep updating the programs with refreshed and new content! 

    So a big thank you, and I hope I’ll be able to redeem that failed Samoan trip at some point!

  11. Dave Pettit

    It has shown me results, session after session in the surf. That feeling is addictive!!

    Dave Pettit

    This program has been extremely helpful in identifying and clearing out those bad habits (you know the ones that hinder progress only after realizing feeling it in the water) and also gaining body awareness. This brings out results in;giving confidence from land traininglooking for & feeling out the power zones of the wavegliding across and making the section or overtaking drop-in’sdrawing out turns with REAL lean and holding the rail engaged back to the power zone still high on the face

    I feel these are the results from your program, your App updates keep it fresh.I can recommend the program as applying to real-life surfers all in the preparation in chasing and dialing in for THAT wave, whatever the conditions.

Cris Surfing In Mentawais 2019

Cris Mills

On a daily basis I help people (predominantly surfers) improve performance, ranging from nutrition, to rehab, and sport specific training.

I know what a surfer needs to work on in order to maintain their interaction with the ocean (surfing). Not only from a personal standpoint, of being a freakish surf-addict who has an intention to keep charging, while also dealing with my own laundry list of injuries, but also having worked with countless surfers from rehab to skill development.

The intention is to keep surfing. In order to do that an individual’s perspective must shift to a focus on health and longevity. Your body is the vehicle through which you interact with the ocean. Keep yourself capable, and invest in your body, it’s movement capacity, it’s joint health, and it’s durability.
