HELP YOUR SURFING…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.

I feel so much better and can move so much better.
I’ve only started the surf doa program and am finding it AMAZING!!
I’ve had some back and neck problems for decades that nothing really helps that much (chiro, PT, accupuncture, foundation work, osteopath, etc etc) while everything offered some relief, I’m finding Surf DOA to be getting to the core issue which is space around the nerves and WOW!
Just wanted to send a huge thank you!

Your inspiration encouraged me!
Thank you for all your information & technical advice. It’s slowly coming together. My hips are getting better. I think it will take a lot more time but unbelievable results. I haven’t trained for over ten years. I bumped into your stretching programs. I loved it.

The results are AMAZING! ZERO PAIN!!
Thank you for the programs.. I am about 6 weeks into the stretches and am virtually pain free. Also, you can see from the pictures I’m improving in my flexibility, hands up and eyes and head focused to my target. Even at 59 years old it’s possible to regain my confidence.

Keep up the good work Cris, your knowledge, passion and commitment to what you do is truly admirable.
What you’re providing the average punter like me with, is a truely valuable resource to help us to enjoy our passion for surfing at a deeper level, and subsequently live a healthier life in the process.
I’ve been a follower of your posts for probably 8 of the last 10 years, adopting the odd stretch or movement into my (sometimes) daily routine, and found them really beneficial. I appreciate your take on how us humans should be able to keep moving in the way we were designed to. It all makes perfect sense.

I have always found your information to be insightful, smart, and of course entertaining.
I’ve been following you for the last few years. I have been surfing only 8 years and initially always looking for intelligent info on how to advance my surfing. As a physical therapist for over 27 years I’ve become critical of what info is on the internet. I realize how much useless and at times even harmful information is out there. I told all of my surf friends to check your site out and they have enjoyed learning from you.

A Great Teacher + Real Training + Great Platform
Cris Mills has been focused on surf training for a long time, putting out great videos when there were none to be found anywhere. His approach is backed by workouts that really work and his teaching ensures that you can perform every action on your own and build at your own pace. Since he was first posting videos on YouTube, he has dedicated himself to these teaching and developed a great platform to manage and track your workouts, so you can progress towards great goals. I’ve used three of his programs now, and I couldn’t be happier with the results.

It improved my surfing technique out of the water
The surf skate program is great and has helped me make a huge improvement on my surfing technique. It has also helped me to get my partner and kids on to a surf-skate and immediately get them going and thinking about how they need to position themselves. For me it is mostly about getting as much surfing practice in as i can when i’m away from the water – for that it has worked a treat.

Perfect pop up program has been revolutionary
The best things I’ve learned from your programs are that all of the movements you teach should be natural movements that our bodies should already know how to do. When I commit to training and get these new movements into my range of motion I notice that I’m able to move more freely. Another great moment has come from learning when to stop training if something doesn’t feel right and that “pain is not gain”! Although I get a great workout, I always feel more charged up afterwards and warmed up rather than defeated and needing a day of rest.
