Tu forma física y tu salud son, en última instancia, la base de tu surf.
Así que hazte estas preguntas
Cuando te metes en el mar, ¿cómo se siente tu cuerpo?
¿Te sientes fluido, fuerte y poderoso? ¿O agitado, sin aliento y frustrado?
¿Los brazos y la respiración agotados? ¿Una espalda baja enfadada por 30 minutos de remo?
Eso suena condenadamente frustrante.
El arte y la destreza del surf no pueden construirse sobre un cuerpo rígido, débil, con sobrepeso y poco saludable.
Si eso se parece a tu surf y a tu cuerpo, ESTÁS LIMITANDO tu surf, y TÚ PUEDES arreglarlo.

Wow this is easily the best online course I have ever followed, even better cause it’s aimed at surfing.
First, Cris is amazing, explains very clearly the exercises, and you feel his deep, genuine love of surfing and coaching fellow surfers. The man has learned everything he could so he could surf better and help as many people as possible, while doing what he loves. Respect.
The website and app are absolutely top notch, so good to use, no glitch no bug, just high quality content in perfect software. So nice to be able to save workouts for offline access.
The program I followed (Surf Athlete) is very progressive, building strength, flexibility and mobility week after week. I feel like this is the building block that was missing in my life to fix my old injuries, get more physical, more active during non surf days and being able to surf for many more years. I don’t think I have ever felt that good, fit and complete in my body.
Thanks a lot for the amazing work.

The Surf Athlete program that Chris has put together is amazing, comprehensive, and professional. It helps you stay in shape for the water and is a wealth of knowledge, that, if you combine with discipline will do loads for your surfing.
I would say that the app could improve by including notes (to self) in the workouts. I would use these to remind myself of weights, reps, variations, etc.

El mejor programa de fitness que existe
I’ve done both the Surf Athlete and Body Weight programs and can honestly say these are some of the best programs out there. I’m 42 and a mom and I’ve been surfing for over 20 years, but lately I get to surf a hand full of times a year. I did almost no surfing all last year and just came back from a Fiji vacation having scored some of the best waves of my life. I was paddling and surfing better than I ever have with zero prep other than Cris’s workouts. Moreover, before I started the workouts my back and hips hurt all the time, I had zero strength in my arms, and I was tired all the time. My body and my health are completely changed and I can finally enjoy playing with my kid not to mention rip on my short board. Highly, highly recommend these programs.

Nunca me he sentido más seguro en el agua o en tierra...
I’m about 2 weeks out from finishing the surf athlete program and I can honestly say that this was exactly what I hoped it would be. I’m a former D1 college athlete, getting back into surfing after a long (almost 10 year) hiatus. My paddle strength/endurance was pretty much gone, and nagging injuries and chronic pain impeded my mobility and flexibility…after a few months working this program and surfing (or snowboarding) pretty much every week, the improvements in overall fitness, flexibility, and my actual surfing have drastically improved. Cris’ approach is scales well and applies to more than just surfing. He really breaks things down from the beginning so that you can get to where you want to be from any starting point…whether you’re a “de-trained” athlete like myself or a beginner surfer who’s never stepped foot in a gym. The movements and exercises really go far beyond just surfing. I would highly recommend the program to anyone that wants to level up in the gym and and in the water. Big ups to Cris for putting together such a bad*ss program.

Me encanta tu trabajo compañero.
Downloaded your value bundle of Surf athlete, perfect pop up and stretches for surfers. I’ve been using your perfect pop up program with the cardboard surfer from OMBE for about 2 weeks.
I wish I’d started using your paid programs straight away as I could feel the difference immediately. Had a couple of surfs in fun waves about a week into some training and could feel the difference.
Last week was a bit of a slack week training wise. I’m a bit time poor sometimes with 3 young boys and running my own business.
Being 42 years old, working in construction and having pre – existing sports injuries you could say that my body was in bad shape.
I’ve also started surfing at about 21 so didn’t come as easily as learning as a child. I first came across some free content from you on surf line during the first Covid lockdown last year.
I found the exercises and the stretches challenging and had been trying to do some daily and could really feel the difference. All the fine details that you explain with each exercise really help with getting the most out of them, activating the targeted areas and how to avoid injury with correct movement.
I’m going to go back to the start and taking it slow to make sure that I’ve got the perfect pop up and cardboard surfer nailed. Once I’ve worked through that I’ll jump into the surf athlete program.
Feeling optimistic about a better surfing future and general sense of physical well being.
Keep up the great work!

I’m always on the hunt for new programs to do. And I’ve done lots now, the significant difference with this is its surf specific but what also sets it apart is the structure. I like to have my workouts laid out easily, so you just tap in and go. But what’s handy about this is you can access different section as and when. So you surf or do a run, then you can jump back in the next day. I’m looking forward to where this will take me. Also Chris is super responsive over Facebook if you have questions.

Te deseo todo el éxito con SSC
I signed up to your program in 2016 and bought various programs from them on.
You programs have taught me more about my body than any other program, personal trainer or physiotherapist I have ever consulted.
While I still use physiotherapists and other programs for rehabilitation, strength and movement I have utilised the knowledge I have learnt from SSC to be the basis for my consultations with these. I think my physio appreciates that I can explain what I’m trying to work and know what I’m having issues with. I have also explained some of the movements I learnt from you and they say keep doing it.
What I would like to say is the noise (negative) about anything you do is probably a small percentage compared to the silent majority (like myself) who have benefited from your work.
I will continue using your teachings and you have made my life better by being better physically as I’m sure many do.

Vale cada centavo, probablemente más.
Cris, stellar program. I bought the complete set of packages and have been going through them all since. I’m in my 40s and current landlocked. The mobility and strength exercises have had a huge impact on my overall well being. The foundation training especially opened up a few things for me. Anytime I go through and rewatch a video I get something new out of it. I’ve been active my whole life, so I took your advice and cherry pick pieces out of each video to work into my routine and change it up. A little foundation work and stretching/mobility drills 6-7 days a week and added in body weight 4-5 of those days consistently. Workouts are between 15-45 minutes each day. Days I’m feeling rough I stick to breath work, and mobility. I’ve yet to jump into the nutrition, but years of bad habits take time to break. Thank you for putting all of this info in one place. I’m happy to let anyone know it’s worth every penny, probably more, (good on you for knowing your audience, we all want to spend our money on our next surf excursion). Like anything else though, if you don’t put in any work, you won’t get any out. Keep up the good work.

Montañas del mejor contenido de PhysioSurf en el planeta
I have barely scratched the surface of the new programs. The amount of content is really mind-blowing. As with your original (2015?) Surf Training Success series (BG’s, baby!.. stayin’ alive) everything is so well thought out. This is something few will recognize. They will just start going through motions. The SSC series is so carefully crafted, it’s genius really, and most people don’t even realize it. Circuit progression alternates (for the most part) muscle groups throughout each movement – BG’s work hips, quad, balance, ankles, and some shoulder range of motion movement. Then it’s on to YogaPlex – (perhaps the best exercise on earth). Less of a strength move than a flow and stretch move, activating just about every muscle in the body. Perfect after BG’s. Lateral Ball Roll is next for core stability, isometric upper back, glute, and hip-activating side to side shuffle (another really unique exercise) Yoga Push-Up – The strength/endurance building movement for shoulders, chest, triceps rounds out Phase 1 Program A Circuit A. We’re not grinding set after set of the same exercise ’till exhaustion. Your programs are carefully designed to not overtax any one muscle group with successive exercises. This is training through multiple movements in a most beneficial sequence.
So just like your original series, I am dissecting and absorbing these new programs. I started the STS series all over again (it had been a couple years) a month ago so I am still on the “Learn” tab in Bodyweight Athlete … haven’t even gotten to the “Train” tab. There’s just so much in there. Articular rotations (CARS=Awesome!), skeletal routines, mobility evaluation tests (super valuable), stretching of course, and TISSUE RELEASE! Man, you thought of everything, and what’s more, the sequence is so well-thought out. People can learn the physiology and the techniques to gain (or regain) proper range of motion and flexibility to slowly strengthen the joints and muscles.
You are the master of surfing physiology. Your video instruction is so succinct. Fully explained, clearly demonstrated. Very impressive. Plus, you’re just a regular dude who loves the ocean and gives what he knows back to help the rest of us keep moving at a higher level. And you do it all with a genuine enthusiasm.
When you open up the surf trips again, I’d be all in, if you have space for a 62-year-old guy shortboarder who can still bust a move on occasion. One more trip to the Ments is on my bucket list, or maybe just as far but not as remote or intense, Maldives! Just let me know when!
Please feel free to use any or all of this long-winded testimonial as you see fit. I had a lot to say!
Much appreciated! Stay stoked!

After using Cris’ surf coaching app for a year, I decided to contact him for help addressing my back injuries.
Cris provided valuable knowledge on how to strengthen specific muscles and provided specific exercises and routines. Following our private coaching session, he emailed an outline of what we discussed and provided great resources to improve my back and surfing.
I highly recommend his surf coaching app, and his personal coaching sessions, to anyone looking for longevity in the water and improvement in surfing.

Es pronto, pero hasta ahora estoy muy impresionado.
I’m a 51 year old trying to work out why I never learnt to surf properly earlier in my life and using everything available to start he journey now. I truly believe Cris’s programme is the answer. I only discovered Cris’s website about a month ago but was really impressed with how comprehensive the content is. He has amalgamated a wealth of skills, information and techniques to produce videos that appear to cover every possible aspect of learning to surf. Having spent the past 20 years dabbling in yoga, pilates, and cross training I love the way Cris has distilled out surf specific exercises for the most effective progression. I’m three weeks in to the Perfect Pop Up and loving it. Already seeing increases in strength and slow improvments in mobility. I have an arthritic hip with FAI, a topic Cris addresses directly in his hip mobility videos. The exercises give me relief from discomfort and now I’m doing them most days. The pop up and stance drills really work too. Last couple of waves I caught I found I had both hands forward automatically and was already lowering my stance. I love learning new skills and this coaching is proving to be super effective for me and a ton of fun.

I bought several programs including the Surf Skate, the Perfect Pop Up, Surf Athlete, and the Body Weight Training. I’ve been training constantly I can say that I and my buddies have already noticed a big improvement in my surfing. I feel more loose, more fit, more aware, and more confident than ever. I highly recommend the programs. They are effective l and worth the price you pay. Differently than many other bullshit coaching programs I unfortunately acquired before I knew Surf Strength Coach.

¡Gran programa!
I am 38 years old and started surfing at 14 in Florida. Lived in Hawaii for a while and took several Central American surf trips. My surfing life went off the rails when I moved to the Midwest for love and work. I lost my surfing shape when I could only surf on vacation. I now have an opportunity to live in Costa Rica for 3-6 months a year. This program has been the perfect solution to keep me in surf shape and to help me relearn all of those skills that used to be muscle memory. Cris is super knowledgeable! It’s not just exercise, it is stretches, breath work, and science.
I just got back from a 10 day trip to Costa Rica and my surfing is on its way back to what it used to be. I hope to surf until I am 100.

Gran comunicador, instrucción de primera clase
Hi Chris, I have a NASM certification but my flexibility is limited and I realized that during my first surf lesson and immediately bought a few of your products. They work. Your email speaks to me. I am just really getting into the programs. I have been doing some new things I learned in terms of flexibility and dude you are a rockstar. Great communicator, first class instruction. Well thought out. I can’t begin to compliment you enough and I wish we were neighbors, you are my kind of guy. So yes, I am in, all the way. Thank you for creating a system that is bringing joy to my life.

¡Ojalá hubiera hecho esto hace 5-10 años!
The Surf Athlete training programme has kept me going throughout the Corona lockdown. Getting involved is the best decision i’ve made. I am a 30 year old intermediate weekend warrior who has spent almost no time in the water over the last two years. My paddling has never been strong and is particularly bad at the moment due to lack of going surfing altogether and lack of exercise that actually translates to surfing and paddling technique. I am already noticing huge improvements to my general strength, posture, flexibility, health, mind and the all important stoke! Everything Cris says is legit. I feel confident following this programme knowing i’ll get good results through constant evidence of his passion and knowledge for surfing and fitness. Most importantly I’m noticing fast improvement in my shoulder endurance and paddling strength which is my main goal, but i’m also noticing improvements in hip movement/flexibility, leg strength and all those other areas I would have probably neglected. All of this has also lead to a huge cut down in the amount I drink and the amount of crap food I used to eat. I feel so much better for all of it. Unlike with other mailing lists, I enjoy receiving Cris’s regular emails that really motivate you to do the next workout or try other things such as breathing technique, tissue release and nutrition advice etc. It always keeps me motivated and reminds me why i’m doing it. His “Coaches and Coffee” episodes and other regular videos also offer the best entertaining advice and keep the stoke alive every time. Although I haven’t been been able to do any real surfing during the lockdown, I am 100% sure my first time back in will be a stronger, more confident and enjoyable experience thanks to Chris and the Athlete programme. This may sound cheesy, but thank you for improving my outlook on life, health and surfing! Surfing and fitness is now becoming a priority in my life, and I look forward to continuing with it from here on out. I only wish I did this 5-10 years ago! Sorry to ramble on, there is a lot to be said… Anyway thanks again, loving all that you do!

Hey Cris, I really enjoy your program, this has been perfect. I really like that each exercise/stretch has its own video with instructions on form. To be honest, I had been using the free content on your app for a few months, and wasnt really sure that paying for a program would be worthwhile, since you have so much rad free content on the app!

Aloha Cris
I want to take a well-deserved moment to say a massive thanks for your help via your program, and regular Instagram motivation which has also improved my approach and outcomes to cooking too. Things have been gradually improving and coming together since I started with your program, and…….. I had an awesome surf a couple of days ago, where a few things aligned and I got a bunch of waves and rode them with more focused awareness resulting in better positioning, more confidence, quicker take-offs, more rail time, and longer rides……… so stoked!!!! It’s been many years, and I specifically attribute 99.99% of turning the clock back to my significantly improved SSC training program (including the cardboard surfer) and surf knowledge and awareness that I have learnt in the last 6 months from you
I’m still working my way slowly through the programs so there is still heaps more knowledge and skill work to tap into and I’m loving it. Thanks heaps, and all the best,

My surfing has progressed more in the past four months then it had in the first 40 years of my life. I can’t wait to feel the progression over the course of the next decade… Not sure when we are going to get back down under or if you ever make it up to San Diego but one day I want to shake your hand, share a surf, and buy you a beer.

aprendí mucho de su formación
I have learned so much from your training videos that I have seen on Youtube. I am trying to speed up my pop up. I saw better surfers at my local break doing the both feet landing on the board at once type of pop up. At that point I was trying to copy them and it really screwed me up. I am so happy because your video confirms that I have been on the right track all along. All of the other details that enable a person to have the proper mobility really make a difference. I had been doing some of those exercises because of instructions that I got from your videos on Youtube. This course has it all in one place and I am so grateful for that. Thank you for being so meticulous in your presentation. Your mantra of building strength and mobility at home and then using them to surf better has been instrumental in getting me to where I am at today. Have a nice day!

Vale la pena cada centavo.
Hi Cris, my wife and 8yo daughter gave me your program for Christmas. Since we all surf together it was really a gift for all of us. We’re watching your program as a family…it’s awesome. We usually watch a video or two on the program before we hop on our boards and practice and critique each other on those drills. No more big effort pop ups. Just to land with feet in the wrong position and have to readjust on a critical part of the wave! It’s wild to get this knowledge after surfing nearly 30 years and see how much more fun we can have in the water by being intentional about our focus for that session. It is such a great asset for my coaching my daughter too. It’s crazy to go out in the water and see how few people really pay any attention to their technique. Glad we’re not in that camp any more. You’ve really got some incredible programs and have put a massive amount of work into putting them together. We appreciate that work, the improvements its already bringing to our surfing and even drawing us closer as a family.

Programa estelar
I had to move inland for a few months for work and I knew I wouldnt be surfing much, so I picked up the 12-week training program in hopes that I’d stay in shape and be able to get right back to it when I my tour was over. I just started week 4 and have thoroughly enjoyed the program. It’s so much more than just a workout regimen – the short videos explaining each movement are extremely helpful in ensuring correct form. The only thing I would be conscious of for this program is that you do need a few equipment items to completely all of the workouts, but it’s reasonable. I also picked up the bodyweight program for when Im staying at a hotel and don’t have my normal equipment/space. It also seems like a great program!

This is a complete program that you can use to stay in surfing(or really general) shape. Cris’s stuff is some of the most thorough programs that I have seen with all aspects, mobility, strength, cardio , breathing that I have come across. He also explains in detail each exercise and it’s purpose so that you have the tools to figure out what might be holding back your surfing, and how you might improve it. It is well worth the money for the amount of information that you get with this and all of his programs

This is the perfect balance of strength and mobility.

The benefits to your surfing will also translate beyond to overall health and posture in every day life.

El mejor lugar para aprender
At the ripe old of age 40, i have been watching surfers in amazement and thought – I need to try this. But I had no idea where to start. After some research, I stumbled across some fantastic Youtube videos by Chris and they left me wanting to learn more from him. I then found the Surf Strength Coach – and was WOWED!! It provides a profound understanding of what is required to get up and surf, starting at the very beginning. It is like having my very own personal coach on demand in my pocket.
I am only new to it, and am very slowly progressing – but this is due to my level of fitness and time demands. The program allows me to go at my own pace, which again is what I need. At this age balancing work/life balance is a challenge – but knowing I have this little gem in my pocket, am confident I will be up and surfing in no time.

¡Programa de entrenamiento súper efectivo!
Living far from the easy is not easy for a surfer. When I happen to go surfing I want to be as ready as possible in order to fully enjoy my time in the water but usually I struggle during the first session as my mind and my body aren’t ready due to the long inactive period. I’ve never done a surf focused training so I decided to give surfstrenghtcoach programs a go. I started with the perfect pop up training and then moved to surf athlete program and I can tell you that I’ve noticed changes since the first week! Now, every time I go surfing, I feel ready to surf at my best since the first wave of the session and I feel at ease also in more challenging situations. Furthermore, Chris is very clear in explaining every aspect of the training and he also teaches the technical know-how of the surfing act. Definitely worth the investment if you want to improve not only the quality of your surfing but also your body!

Surf entrenamientos para la vida
I’m 5 weeks into the Surf Athlete Program and feeling great. As a guy who doesn’t get to surf that much due to my location, training before trips is extra important. Surf Strength Coach provides great surf specific workouts that I can see myself using throughout life! The workouts target small muscle groups, build flexibility, balance, joint strength… The fact that the workouts are surf specific keeps you motivated. – I’m stoked to program exists. Highly recommended.

I am only in week 3 and have only got in the water once so far since starting, but I already feel a difference in my mobility and overall strength. Truthfully, this has taken me past just being stronger for surfing but being more capable of playing with my 2 year old. Well worth the investment.

Chris is legit. I have trained with pro coaches before and Chris is right there with them. Surf specific whole body movement workouts with a detailed explanation as to why and huge emphasis on proper form. Mobility is center-stage along with pre-surf and workout warm-ups. I want to be the best surfer I can be and this program is what I need to get me there.

I have practiced Cross Fit and Yoga for 7 years now, but I was stuck in my surfing like the typical intermediate surfer you can see in the videos. (card board surfer). I am stoked with the program which helped me to improve my surfing a lot and gave me a lot of benefit. Especially flexibility, stability and of course my posture. All of the exercises really matter to surf. Thank you.

I’m on my early 40s, started working with the “SURF ATHLETE” program a few weeks ago and already started noticing major improvements in my mobility and strength. The targeted and ramp-up approaches really focus on the physiology required for surfing and the educational parts really interesting. The training is challenging but fulfilling!

Really enjoying the program. As a 60 yr old looking to make sure I am at my maximum potential for my next Costa Rica surfing trip, I have found the Surf Athlete program an excellent decision. The workouts are clearly laid out and the descriptions/tips really help. My overall balance (esp one legged) and flexibility are improving measurably already, and I am just 2 weeks in. Luckily I will complete the 12 wk program just in time to head to CR and jump on a longboard! Already stoked! Aloha, Marty

I have purchased most of the programs. There is so much well organized content. Chris gives clear, detailed instructions that include variations to make exercises easier or more challenging. The workouts are simple to follow on either my phone or computer. I have quickly noticed an improvement in my fitness. I have also been enjoying breath work. Because of the pandemic my access to surf has been limited. This is less frustrating knowing I am doing things to improve my surf fitness while I’m in dry dock. It also helps relieve the boredom.

This is the best surf specific strength training app I’ve seen. The ux is quite good with a few exceptions and the content is easy to follow. I also liked that the programs are very comprehensive and systematic. The underlying physiological theory behind what you’re doing is explained so you are doing exercises with a clear “why” in your mind and can take that deeper understanding forward with you whether you keep using the app or not.

Grandes programas, mejora impresionante después de 2 semanas de entrenamiento (Bundle)
Bought the Bundle program so my partner can learn to surf with The Perfect Pop Up, decided to go through the material myself and I am now applying it our my own surf and I can already see an improvement. My hip was stuck and the program is helping to lose it up, which is helping with the movement flow, also fixed my back foot position which made the board a bit more loose ( easier to turn ). Now I am going to finish The Perfect Pop Up before I go into the 12 weeks program. Also the Stretches For Surfers helped a lot, throughout that that I found out about my hip… Great program

Been viewing Cris’s free content for some time, top marks for the quality and depth of these, all for nothing ! Took the jump into buying the Surf Athlete programme recently as , although I’ve been training most of my life, my workouts sometimes lacked a bit of direction and flexibility in particular needed lots of work. Only a few weeks into the programme but already seeing benefits in why a particular exercise is beneficial and how to structure these to focus on improving your surfing – which is why we are all here anyway ! If like me you hesitated into paying some cash, don’t be – the knowledge you will gain will be priceless – cheers mate

I completed the NASM PT program and the Corrective Exercise Specialist program, to better help my gymnasts and myself, after undergoing extensive rehab and training, for a series of injuries related to a herniated lumbar disc and subsequent muscle imbalances and inhibitions I have been assessing the program with critical eye, and have found very few flaws in it. Congratulations to you Chris! I really appreciate the amount of time and energy that must have gone into this, having tried for years to make my own exercise programs, it’s worth every penny so far.

Surf Athlete
I’m 53 surfed since about 13 and keep fit. But my surfing has been lacking and i found myself more and more surfing my Mal. Whilst i enjoy longboarding my shortboarding was getting frustrating. Lacked the dynamic strength to get onto the waves and felt like i was always trying to catch up. So i did a couple of weeks of the free program and am now on the 3rd week of the surf athlete. Amazing turn around – back surfing a 6″ twinnie and loving it. The program is definitely working – and its fun! Sign up and reap the rewards!!

Merece la pena si estás pensando en hacerlo pero te preguntas por el precio
I completed the cardboard surfer program and now am in Phase I of the Surf Athlete program. I just completed a 1 week surf camp in Costa Rica where we were in the water for 4 hours a day. Coming from home, where sessions were about 1.5 hours, I was worried I whether I could hang with multiple surfs a day. I did the workouts before and during my surf camp and I have to say the dynamic flows were a really great tool to recover and prepare my body for the next surf. By the the end of the surf camp I was amazed that I didn’t feel sore or stiff from all that surfing.

The results have thus far been phenomenal. I have developed so much strength in my back and shoulders which has translated into a dramatic improvement in my surfing.

Making those subtle adjustments has helped me with wave selection, my ability to catch waves along with seeing the line that I need to take when popping up and riding the wave.
Totally Stoked,

¡Absolutamente brillante!
I absolutely love this program! I teach yoga / SUP yoga and have been a Personal Trainer for years but have needed a bit of a focus for my own training for a while and this has hit the spot perfectly! I windsurf, surf and sup surf and I love the fact that there’s not the usual guilt-tripping about missing sessions being a sign of poor committment, as we all know on-water time is the really important thing so we’re all going to miss workouts sometimes when the conditions are good! I also love that the goal is just one of each workout a week plus cardio / recovery, I’ve actually in the past been so ruined from training my on-water time has suffered not been enhanced which is crazy. I’ve been loving the stretches and dynamic flow, and I’ve been doing this most days. Despite teaching yoga I actually teach and do more watersports so am constantly tight and sore and don’t do enough for myself on a daily basis other than get on the water, this has motivated me to get back to some proper self-care too. I’ve learned some stretches which are now all time faves and can’t wait to work though all the programmes – the 6 week pop up next, then Cardboard surfer! There is so much content, and as a Personal Trainer some of the off the cuff comments are the ones that impress me the most and prove Cris knows his shit and makes me feel happy trusting my training plan to him (I actually rarely follow a programme in full because of this, usually adding my own elements or skipping certain things, so this is actually quite a big deal for me). I also have a major knee restriction due to a long-standing injury (apparently need it replaced) while this is not directly relevant everything in the programme is what I need to be doing and addressing. The fact the focus is on improving surfing really helps me want to do this more than just another fitness programme, as they tend to be pretty bland and formula one way or another, this is in a different league on so many counts. Can highly recommend!

No sólo se traduce en el surf, sino en todos los ámbitos de la vida.
I stumbled upon Cris and his work about 8 years ago and started on his older Surf Strength Training programs. Fast forward to present day and here I am writing him a review. What has impressed me the most is his focus, his commitment to fitness and to health and wellness overall. His programs continue to evolve, which shows me he is always learning and staying up to date with what is best for the body. His methodology and his routines have my body feeling strong, stable and moving the right way. The best part is… I maybe surf a couple times a year but his workout, stretch and mobility routines allow me to stay strong, mobile and flexible, which carries over to many different activities besides surfing. He also always responds whenever I have questions. I can’t say enough great things about Cris and his workout routines and the community he is building. Great job Cris!!

Un programa realmente impresionante
I can’t say enough great things about the surf athlete program. Cris has poured years of knowledge into this specially crafted mobility and workout program for the body a surfer needs. It’s amazingly well thought out and easy to follow. Personally, I’ve noticed my surfing improve quite a bit due to my body being able to handle the rigors of surfing, paddling and wipe outs! It’s a really cool feeling to know your body is moving better and feeling stronger doing the thing you love doing!
Also, Cris has added some amazing bonuses in terms of special workouts to improve paddling and some of his thoughts and philosophies and most importantly a full set of recovery routines for each muscle in the body. This alone is worth the cost of the program because going to someone to do this kind of work is expensive and he walks you through each one really clearly, explaining the what and how super clearly.
What takes this all over the limit is the way it’s all put together, you just plug and play, follow along, progressively through for phases, week by week, day by day, and through each exercise. It’s amazing and I cannot express enough gratitude for the feeling I feel when I’m in the water. It truly is like having a different body, that handles surfing so much better!

Un programa increíble
A year ago I was coming off a neck injury, plus just years of bad posture, bad mechanics, too much sitting at a desk, etc. Dipped a toe in the water with some of Cris’ Youtube videos, and then decided to take the plunge with the Surf Athlete App. I honestly can’t say enough great things about it. The workouts have not only improved my surfing, but improved every aspect of my physicality in regular life. The 12-week program really does a great job of allowing you to build up but also learn about what it is you’re building. And all of the extras–breathwork, recovery, paddle workouts–are excellent as well. Even after finishing the program it’s still a near daily resource for me. I use the cardboard surfer program as well, and just am a huge fan of all of it. Especially the fact that it’s so instructive as to the how’s and why’s of your body mechanics, and how much they teach you about your physiology. I’m also regular user of Foundation Training, which I know Cris is a fan of, and definitely recommend combining the two. It’s a great way to prehab/rehab your body not just for surfing but everything. At 43, my body is definitely not as durable as it once was, but this program, along with Foundation Training, has been a game changer. Thanks Cris!

Si está listo para mejorar su juego en surf , ¡éste es el momento!
I recently finished the 12-week Surf Athlete program and just purchased the Perfect Pop-Up program. I had previously been watching many of Cris’ free videos on YouTube and managed to piece together workouts here and there. I made a commitment to the Surf Athlete Program as I desired a more focused program to really push myself to improve as a surfer. I 100% recommend this is you are looking to do the same and please listen and watch carefully. Cris provides very thorough explanations and helpful videos throughout. I found it very beneficial to replay the videos I had already watched over and over through the different phases as I did each phase and workout. I would catch helpful tips that I hadn’t digested properly earlier on! Not only has my overall body mobility significantly improved but I found that some annoying aches and pains associated with daily sedentary work life mixed with relatively short-duration and intense surfing and other workouts started to fade. The benefits Cris mentions throughout this program are quite attainable if you stick with it and put in the time. My surfing has vastly improved, particularly my pop-up and range-of-motion ON my board while riding. This program was not at all difficult mentally for me; I really looked forward to my Surf Athlete sessions! I now add them in before or after surfs, between work calls, or whenever works best as it’s easy to jump away from my desk at home, give it all I’ve got, and then return to work rejuvenated and feeling mobile and light! If you are considering this, please go for it! Thanks Cris!! Looking forward to the next ones!

Amplio programa de formación Surf
I feel like Cris has put together a truly comprehensive dry land surf training programme! It combines a variety of exercises,moves, mobility, tissue release, and general advice which you can learn and implement in your own training routine and conditioning. I have tried other types of personal training to not be as satisfactory as very often its more about a ‘pain train’ and less about learning and understanding movements and skills that i can carry over in the future. This programme is def legit. Cris is a really sound guy too that seems to be genuinely invested in sharing everything he’s learnt to us so we can move better and be better surfers 🤘 Thanks dude!

Otro nivel de progresión
I’m on week 2 of surf athlete training. (Second attempt at committing to the program). I’ve been surfing for over 20years now and am always trying to find ways to keep my body in optimal surfing condition. I feel like I’ve done a good job. I thought I was flexible, core strong, and agile. After the first week of training with the program, I now see that I have a lot more weakness in several areas. Flexibility, mobility, and core strength. I now know that I am getting the types of instruction that will help me get to where I need to be for the winter season and for surf trips where you surf 3 times a day. The stretches, the dynamic flow, the deep tissue work is working. It’s hard work, especially learning the movements, but already I am feeling looser, faster, and more energized in the water. My plan is to be completely through phase 3 by October and be able to continue a healthy routine for the rest of my surfing life. Chris, thank you so much for this program! As an aging surfer of 44 years, I feel like I can still progress again. Put in the work and reap the rewards. Super pumped to surf!

Programa de fitness inteligente y completo surf
So I’m 49 and my wife is 45. We’re no spring chickens but we both like to think we keep relatively fit and healthy – running, surfing and doing our own thing at home with dumb bells, TRX etc. I also did HIIT or circuit classes a couple of times week at the local gym on the assumption that someone shouting at me to do exercises to the point of organ failure was the kind of motivation required to stay fit. The COVID lock down changed all that. The gym closed and suddenly we were at home, with three kids, a dog and lots of time with zero structure. We needed a regime, a rhythm of training we could slot into to keep us sane during lock down. I’d been dabbling in a bit of Cris’s free YouTube videos and liked the focus on functional surf fitness given surfing is the thing I want to continue progressing at. It all seemed very plausible and well considered. Plus, Cris seemed to know loads of latin terms for obscure body parts I’d never heard of, so for that alone it was worth a go.
We’re now in our final week of the 12 week programme and rate it very highly. The impact to our surfing has been palpable in terms of paddle strength and feeling better equipped in the water. There’s plenty of solid strength work, but also tons of challenging mobility exercises and a comprehensive series of great stretches. You’ll get the sweaty endorphins and the sense of achievement you get from any normal exercise session. But you’ll also come away with the sense that you’re re-wiring things in your body and that you’re more connected in the way you might feel after a yoga session for example. It’s not all fun and games. It’s hard. In fact, during moments of extreme effort I have to confess we may have called Cris some unkind names that may also have included some colourful curse words (sorry Cris, nothing personal, there was no one else around to aim at).
Be patient. You’ll need to devote a bit more time than you might be used to in an exercise session, especially in the early weeks, as you wrap your head and your body around the movements. But it’s worth the time and commitment because it’s clear you’re on a path of progression rather than a treadmill to nowhere.
Good stuff Cris! Thanks a lot. Would be nice to chat sometime. Cheers! Patrick

Everything you need to stay loose and strong in all the right places to help you achieve the athleticism needed to surf well is in this program. When I first found Cris on youtube years ago, he helped me realize how much mobility I was missing in my entire body. I bought his program back when it was just a downloadable PDF and it was life changing. Turned me into a full on mobility junkie. Once he came out with the app I jumped on it, and have to say it is by far the best surf fitness program you will find. I like that it is equally about strength, mobility and flexibility, and that he doesn’t have you beating your body up to the point where you can’t move. Cris is passionate about what he does, and it shows through all the work that he has put into this program. If you ever get a chance to go on one of his trips, you should do that as well. You will not find a better coaching team anywhere. Thanks Cris for helping me to continually improve my surfing even at 45 years old and after 27 years of surfing. Keep up the good work!

The program is a progressive, multidimensional approach to training. It wont leave your body taxed, and disrupt your surf sessions. It adds to the surf sessions, by giving vitality, strength, and confidence. Vitality, due to the holistic, and progressive approach, and confidence in different positions, due to the new found strength. This is the second program I have picked up from cris, and my family have been using the dynamic warm ups now for years, both for morning routines and pre workout/surf. There is a lot of knowledge that is shared through this app for which I am always grateful.

I am 63 , have been surfing for 45 years and this program is really working great! Cris knows the fundamentals of how our bodies need to react while out in the water surfing. I cannot surf as much when I was in my 20s and 30s, I own a business and have to drive a lot. This program will get you physically where you need to be in the water, and I am only part way through the routine that Cris puts out. I can see the benefits really quickly, amazing! Thanks Cris for putting this out there, cannot wait to get through the whole program, this coming winter will be ready!!

Programa perfecto para convertirse en un atleta surf
I Finished theSurd Athlete Training Program last October and honestly it was the best Training Program I ever did. I tried a lot of them, I even tried to create mine.
The best points are :
* Very precise,
* progressive,
* very well explained and easy to reinvest,
* Not traumatic for the joints
* Very quick first reluts
* Complete : you work on strength, flexibility, cardio, core, balance, breath ….
I would add a limit to this program : you need time to understand all the workouts and to do them almost evary day for at least 45mns during 12 weeks. Pretty hard to integrate this program in an already busy schedule.
If you can handle it, it will deeply impact your body and your soul.
For myself, I just continued with picking some exercises in this all possibilities and I built my own program I create 3 times a week.
Great job Cris.

Gracias
I’m 83% done with the 12 week surf athlete program. I’ve enjoyed it and am grateful for it. I’m 50 and have a few occasionally nagging old injuries. The program is progressive yet allows me to make adjustments and work within my limitations. But also push myself. Most noticeable improvements have been my core and leg strength whilst surfing. More spray for my ego! Many of the exercises have coincided with exercises my physical therapist has given me which has been great! My PT is also a surfer btw.
Although I haven’t delved into it completely, I’m stoked to see the foundation training included in the app and have integrated a little if it into my morning warm up/ stretch routine.
I’ve also integrated the must watch video “warm up for surfers” exercises and stretching into my morning routine and obviously I use it before I paddle out.
I’m also appreciative for the breathe work. It’s prompted me to explore further breath work ie Wim Hof, and evening start attending a breath work class. I especially like the box breathing.
Last but not least I’ve learned from the cardboard surfer program although I’m not a novice surfer. I’m working on correcting years of bad habits and improving new habits. And even though most would consider me a grumpy, old, wave hogging local, the cardboard surfer program has helped me translate techniques to beginning surfer friends. Isn’t it all about helping others???
I look forward to more advanced carver training. Specifically with Clayton involved.
If you are young or old, new to or experienced with surfing this app will improve your surfing, your physical, and even a little of your mental health if applied correctly.

¡Me siento como si tuviera 25 años otra vez! (38 años)
Brilliant program. Kids, work, etc, allow me less time in the water these days. The resultant decrease in fitness and flexibility meant I wasn’t enjoying the time I did have in the water as much. The probability of an injury was also increasing. Rather than wait for the inevitable injury, I decided to undertake the 12 week program. I haven’t felt this good since I was in my 20’s – I feel stronger and a lot more flexible. I have recommended the program to mates and family who surf. Trips to the Chiro have also become less frequent, which has easily saved me more than the cost of the program. This program is a great way to get ready for the winter swells at the end of a long flat summer!

Personally, I have been working in remote camps in Canada and haven’t been able to surf the whole time. I have followed Chris Mills programs for many years now but the program that has inspired me the most to stay fit and ready for the day I surf again is SURF ATHLETE 12 WEEK TRAINING PROGRAM.
The Strength, agility and endurance I have acquired through the 12 week program is one of the most rewarding I have developed through exercise.
I continue to use the practices taught in my everyday workouts. This type of knowledge is invaluable, it will last a lifetime.
I am currently in mandatory quarantine back in my home of Australia. Still using his techniques in my hotel room(proof this can be done anywhere).
This program is truly an inspiration and I can’t wait to hit the SURF!!!!!!

Recupera el amor.
The Surf Athlete Program has improved my surfing and overall health. I am 65 and have been surfing since 14. For a number of reasons including a total knee reconstruction my surfing and overall fitness had faltered. Surf Athlete has fixed that. It suits me perfectly because:
I don’t like gyms
You can follow along with an enthusiastic and knowledgeable instructor
It’s flexible. The are alternatives for all levels of fitness and mobility
It concentrates on improving mobility/flexibility using many yoga poses as well as strength exercises
You need limited equipment. I use an exercise ball, some straps and milk cartons filled with water
Feedback is encouraged and questions answered from any easy to navigate app.
My pop up is better, my surfing and general fitness has improved,I am more confident in the water and surfing more. Great value.

FIT TO SURF
Cris’s programs have been life changing. After struggling to surf for many years following illness, and then giving it away all together for two years, I decided to give surfing one last go. I found Surf Strength Coach on YouTube and was impressed by Cris’s thorough understanding of the human body, and what the required fitness levels are for competent surfing. I followed his training sessions to the letter 4 times per week for 3 months and completely transformed my body to be fit to surf again. Now in my 50’s , I seriously felt like the clock had been turned back 20 or 30 years.
The only way this doesn’t work is if you don’t put in the time and effort. If you are not seriously surf fit (which is most of us) and you follow his programs properly, it is like magic. By the way, I am now more flexible than I ever been, and probably stronger too.

En general, un gran programa.
As a 40 year old father of two that lives an hour from the nearest wave I don’t get into the water as often as I would like. These programs are awesome for keeping me in shape and limber when those opportunities to surf do happen. Been following your workouts since before the website or app was really around, back when they were just youtube videos and downloadable program sheets you could print out and I definitely think these programs are a way better way to stay in surfing shape than trying to come up with routines on my own. The programs are great at leading you through a progression into more difficult routines down the line and you can feel how the movements will apply to your surf technique while doing them.
I purchased the program combo and feel its well worth the money. Currently in phase 2 of the surf athlete program and I look forward to my workout every day.

Del hospital al agua Surf El atleta me llevó hasta allí
My lung spontaneously collapsed (spontaneous pneumothorax) June of 2018. After being in the hospital for a week, I wasn’t allowed to lift more than 10 lbs. for 2 months. Lost almost all muscle, energy and endurance to be able to surf for any length of time or on rougher days.
The day I was able to start physical activity again I started the Surf Athlete Program on the app, 3 months later I finished the program, strong and can paddle out, continuing to build muscle and endurance. I actually went through it a 2nd time and in better shape now than I was before the hospital and the breath work at the end has made me that much more confident out in the water.

As someone who started surfing later in life and doing 2-3 hour sessions at 37 years old while being at a desk all day, I needed something to help me become more mobile, recover faster, and also allow me to surf multiple days per week while minimizing injury. The Surf Athlete Program along with the vast amount of resources Cris has made available for his clients has provided me with the ability to last longer in the water, reduce shoulder fatigue, open up my hips, and prevent back injuries. These are workouts I will use for the rest of my life and the ceiling for progression is quite high for athletes of all levels.

I am going on week 4 of the surf strength program and am starting to get to know the work outs better. I can definitely feel the difference getting out of bed in the morning moving in and out of ranges of movement that I am usually stiff in. Although I’m struggling a little trying to keep a daily workout regime going, I’m sneaking in little snippets of movements and stretches from the workouts within my day.
I guess more than anything this program has taught me how out of shape I really am. With this crazy pandemic we are in, I’ve lost all of my jobs and sources of income left to do what the rest of us are going through, raising a 13-year-old son, hunting work down, staying healthy, and trying to figure out how to get some free time to myself. So, when my last paycheck came through I asked myself how I could make positive out the situation I found myself in? After seeing your add pop up on Surfline, and watching all of your free workouts online, I decided to spend my money wisely and invest it into The betterment of myself. Looking forward to checking back in with you in a month to see how much I’ve improved, especially when I can get some time to apply everything to my surfing.

Fantastic program. I really appreciate Cris’ dedication and passion to help us surf better. The program is very comprehensive and is preparing me to surf better. If you are undecided, hit go and get started. I am 56 with both hips replaced and wish I had started this program sooner.

Completo, divertido, motivador y que mejora enormemente la vida
The Surf Athlete training programme has kept me going throughout the Corona lockdown. Getting involved is the best decision i’ve made.
I am a 30 year-old intermediate weekend warrior who has spent almost no time in the water over the last two years. About a month before lockdown I just started getting back into surfing having bought a new wetsuit suitable for the cold water here in Cornwall, UK. My paddling has never been strong and is particularly bad at the moment due to lack of going surfing altogether and lack of exercise that actually translates to surfing and paddling technique. Not having decent paddling strength/shoulder flexibility has lead to poor confidence and fear when the surf gets any bigger than 4-5ft. It massively limits the amount of times I can go surfing, as the conditions here are so changeable and I only get a small window of opportunity on the weekends. I have slowly come to the realisation that I won’t ever build good paddling strength and general confidence from merely surfing on some weekends at best. Therefore I have finally decided to actually do something about it with Chris’s app.
I am in week 4 of the first phase and am already noticing huge improvements to my general strength, posture, flexibility, health, mind and the all important stoke! Everything Chris says is legit. I feel confident following this programme knowing i’ll get good results through constant evidence of his passion and knowledge for surfing and fitness. Most importantly I’m noticing fast improvement in my shoulder endurance and paddling strength which is my main goal, but i’m also noticing improvements in hip movement/flexibility, leg strength and all those other areas I would have probably neglected. All of this has also lead to a huge cut down in the amount I drink and the amount of crap food I used to eat. I feel so much better for all of it.
Unlike with other mailing lists, I enjoy receiving Chris’s regular emails that really motivate you to do the next workout or try other things such as breathing technique, tissue release and nutrition advice etc. It always keeps me motivated and reminds me why i’m doing it. His ‘Coaches and Coffee’ episodes and other regular videos also offer the best entertaining advice and keep the stoke alive every-time.
Although I haven’t been been able to do any real surfing during the lockdown, I am 100% sure my first time back in will be a stronger, more confident and enjoyable experience thanks to Chris and the Athlete programme. This may sound cheesy, but thank you for improving my outlook on life, health and surfing! Surfing and fitness is now becoming a priority in my life, and I look forward to continuing with it from here on out. I only wish I did this 5-10 years ago! Sorry to ramble on, there is a lot to be said…

It’s simple and effective advice, well delivered and packaged in a user friendly format. What more could you ask for?
You do need to set some time aside to watch and understand the video tutorials before starting them and to ensure the correct movement is achieved, but so far, it’s been a great program and has certainly improved my hip and shoulder mobility already.

¡Programación reflexiva!
I’ve spent my career in movement coaching my clients and members of Equinox. When I can across surf strength I was excited to see a precise and specific method for surf demands where I could be coached! I started surfing later in life, through my own expertise and experience I trained to progress my fitness, yet this training puts it all in one app and makes it so easy and fun to use. I recommend it for all who desire a more mobile and dynamic life, in and out of the water. Thank you!

Contenidos inmejorables para los internautas
The content and layout of this program are incredible. I am on week 2 and what I have noticed so far is that Chris is someone who cares deeply about precision and is able to demonstrate and articulate not only how to train the human body, but also why it’s important to do certain movements/stretches/exercises as it relates to surfing. The hidden gem in my opinion is the recovery section. It is so thorough that at first I was intimidated by it and felt like it was a bit over my head. But after spending an hour going through it one by one, I realized how simple he made it for an untrained guy like me to understand the anatomy and the movement needed to execute a solid recovery session. I was mostly excited for the strength aspect of this program but was not prepared for how awesome the stretching and tissue release segment would be.
I have no real complaints – but I think there is room to make the user interface a little easier to use and see, for example making the reps text larger and to add a back button in case you accidentally click “next” while going through the workouts. All in all, I am 100% stoked on this program and I think the value is through the roof!

Ahh ser móvil de nuevo..............
Been looking into the Surf Athlete Program for a while not being sure to commit or not and just started doing some muscle release exercises. After a couple of stiff sore body sessions in a row, that was it, I’d had enough of being restricted! I was going to make the change and get some fluidity/mobility back. So far I have almost completed week 2 and I can feel the benefits in that my body is starting to feel looser especially in my problem areas. I have a long way to go but if this trend keeps up I’ll be super stoked and frothing like a grom again 🙂

No me arrepiento de haberme apuntado, ¡este curso es genial!
I was hesitant to pull the trigger on signing up as I have tried similar things and been disappointed, but I am glad I did! I followed the blog for a while and really liked the way Cris presents things and the kind of things he talked about so figured I would give it a go. The thing I like most about this is that there has been a lot of thought, research, and testing put into it before it was put out there. So many surf training videos are just standard workout classes with “surf” put in the title. This is different, firstly the foundation behind the workouts is really well explained providing context, the movements are relevant to surfing (loads of exercises I had never heard of before!) and the workouts are balanced, with stretches, core work, cardio, breath work etc. Really enjoying this, the nice thing is you don’t need much equipment at all.

Formación profesional integral
As a german Physiotherapist I can say that the Surf Athlete Program by Chris is a nice allround concept of athletic strength, coordination, mobility and recovery. Its all meant to lead to better surf skills, but because of the allround concept and the detailed description of exercises it is also a physiotherapeutic like training concept for everybody. You don’t often find trainings online that are focused that much on technical execution. So if you need something that kicks your ass…do freeletics and try to recover your injuries by yourself 😉 But if you want to see useful progress of increasing your all-day-fitness and at the same time strengthen your base for surfing, try this! Nice professional variety of training exercises.

Simplemente perfecto
I had a free trial of the program first and was really impressed with the quality and well thought structure of the exercises. No-nonsense approach, no chitty-chatty bla bla, straight to the point, concise and precise – that’s how I like it! I’m not an expert in body movement physiology or physiotherapy but I have a medical and anatomical background and you can clearly see that Cris knows his stuff. On top of that I was surprised how user-friendly his app is – I can easily click through the parts that I need, track my progress (my pop up program had some bugs in the beginning though) and I love having a visual overview with thumbnails of my circuits and just click through them instead of scrolling back and forth through a long video with redundant information like I’ve experienced in other programs. That really appealed to me and during lockdown I finally made the purchase of a package plus the cardboard surfer – after 3 weeks of structured training (alternating between the surf athlete and the pop up program whilst implementing some technique of the cardboard surfer) and being back to work as a doctor and busy mum of two small children I must say that I can’t rate this program high enough! I get up early to do my workout before work and I’m looking forward to it the evening before already, no matter how tired I am – that has never happened before with any other workout programs. I can feel the benefits already, I’m feeling flexible and supple, not stiff anymore and I love the fact that I “feel” the effects of a full training in my muscles on the day after yet not being exhausted or worn out. I can’t wait to see how all those benefits might translate into the water, but I think I can’t go without this program and the app anyway. I’m so happy that I finally found my perfect fitness routine! Thanks , Cris!

Programa integral de entrenamiento de fuerza-Surf FUNCIONA
If you’ve been looking for a system of movements and training to follow on land to prepare for your surf time, this is THE app to get. The experience has been transformative, especially the instructional videos throughout the various programs that tell you exactly why you’re doing what you’re doing, discovering your limitations, and using your training to work on those. The most insightful videos for me were around fixing the popup. I’ve watched dozens of other tutorials on the popup, but this one hits home and helped me (finally) discover what I’ve been doing wrong in my first 40 surfing sessions to date. After watching the video, I understood what it means to be fluid and what my back foot/leg should look like. I’m excited to get further into the Surf Athlete Program.

Cambió fundamentalmente mi forma de surfear y mi salud
I am so inspired by Chris and everything he does so I may be a little biased. Let me just say I went into the Surf Athlete Program app with high expectations and they have been surpassed. Chris has managed to keep up the intensity and keep me engaged with the app. That is good because if you stick with it the mechanics of the exercises will absolutely change the way you surf. I’m in Phase 2 right now. In Phase 1, I came away feeling stronger, more flexible and with more stability in my core. Now I’m in Phase 2 and I’m seeing the improvements show up in how I surf and paddle. A recent session here in San Diego involved a lot of paddling. I paddled until I was absolutely spent. Afterward, I was more sore in different areas of my central back, instead of all in my chest and arms. This was a result of using a more effective posture while paddling, and this more effective posture was a result of the work I had done with the app. The program is worth the investment in time and money. Thanks Chris for all you do and being such a professional!

Desbloquear mi cuerpo
Over the past several years I have tried several programs to improve my surfing mobility. I am 48 and spent many years lifting heavy weights and following a strict strength training routine. I neglected mobility and flexibility for the most part and also developed weaknesses that I was unaware of.
As a result my surfing has suffered and in particular I have battled restriction of movement along with associated injuries which have gotten pretty bad over the last several years. My whole body has been pretty locked up and was getting worse and worse. My biggest struggles have been with Kyphosis and anterior pelvic tilt from too much desk time, improper training and overall neglect. This has negatively affected my ability to function efficiently in the water.
After only one month doing the full routine along with the separate pop-up program I am already beginning to feel my body open up. Paddling is improving and my pop-up is night and day. I didn’t remember how easy and effortless it could be! I still have a long way to go, but I have confidence that the program will get me there. The information and detail in the program is excellent! Give it your 100% and the reward will follow. The program is great for surfing, but also great for your overall mobility for life.

His holistic approach in the program encourages and enables the user to move more freely. Moving freely helps a closer connection with the ocean. Free flowing movement, to surf with strength, flow and grace is my goal. It’s epic.

This app is awesome because Cris is the master of explanation. He gives you all the information you need to feel confident in what you are doing. And the breath work section is exceptional.

Una forma divertida y eficaz de mejorar tu forma física y, en consecuencia, tu surf.
You can really tell that Cris has dedicated his life to surfing, health and fitness. He is incredibly knowledgable and has a very motivating way of communicating (just check out some of his YouTube to get an idea). The Surf Athlete program is a structured and progressive way to get into the best shape of your life and prepare your body for surfing. The series of videos and exercises are professionally recorded and very well explained. The app is constantly improving and easy to navigate. I’m currently about half way through the program and I’ve noticeably improved my flexibility and core strength by now – and I paddle stronger than ever and have a more dynamic pop-up as a result.
As an additional bonus, the section on breathing is really interesting and has some good exercises as well… But if you have a good breathing practice (from yoga or free diving), you probably won’t learn anything groundbreaking on that topic. Still, really great stuff!

The whole program is designed to help you surf better, and also help improve your pop-up. I am in-land so I don’t get much wave time, so these exercises and stretches help when I do get surf time. I also like his functional assessments, to see where the focus needs to be.

El mejor entrenamiento de surf en línea - ¡de lejos!
I’ve always been on the hunt for a good surf training program. I live in the Washington, DC metro area, so getting to waves is a difficult task, and surf is good only in the very cold months. Consequently, I’ve always been in need of a training program to keep up my paddle strength. First, there just were no programs out there. I found Chris Mills a long time ago, from watching youtube videos.
When he first made a video program to purchase, I jumped on the program. This Surf Strength Coach program and application is the culmination of a lot of great work that is now in a fantastic product.
Chris’ instruction is always clear and concise. He targets exactly what you need and shows alternative movements. He stresses form, which is always a hallmark of a good coach. Finally, a REAL surfing program.
This program is worth every penny! Thanks Chris for the years of instruction and for finally making this program and app.

I first heard about Surf Strength Coach by searching for some exercises specifically for surfers and Surf Strength Coach videos kept coming up. The videos were easy to follow and exactly what I was trying to find. This led me to discovering the Surf Strength Coach website and getting the program. Cris has a comprehensive program that is inclusive of surfers of all abilities and I find the app is fantastic to follow and really motivating. It takes out the guessing and it’s truly like having a private coach working with you on the fundamentals. I have already learned a ton from starting the program and can’t wait to continue with my training!

I’m glad I bought this. I’ve learned a lot and really enjoy the way Cris has put this together. I add this to the other training that I do, and it really helps me reduce tightness and keeps me limber. And, Cris’ tips have really helped when I’ve implemented them while surfing. For someone who has surfed more than 30 years, I’m stoked on the additional progress I’m making and how I’m able to still pull multi-hour sessions.

Started surfing in my mid 30’s and love the sport, I found myself struggling to pop up correctly and move around freely.
Now in my early 40’s I recently signed up to the surf strength coach 12 week challenge.
My hips and lower back are starting to move the way they should again, I have more energy and my pop up has improved, i’m surfing better than I ever have.
It is the perfect surf fitness program.
Thanks Cris awesome program.

Fantástica oportunidad
I did the surf athlete training. Amazing results in terms of flexibility, core, strength…. I never stayed that long in the water, so I could take more waves. Moreover, I am much more confident now… I can try things I never tried before. It’s really indredible…. If you want to improve your physical capacity for better/longer surfing, do it…. no doubt. But one thing, be patient at the beginning, it does not come that fast, keep going weeks after weeks. Then …. comme back in the water…. Waouuuuuh….. Really, GO

Si no planifico, entonces planifico para fracasar
Let me explain. I’ve been surfing almost non stop since 1968 and although I went through periods of hitting the gym to “up my game”, aging never stops, injuries became more frequent and harder recoveries even more so. I stumbled upon Cris’s Surf Strength Coach programs back in 2013 and dealing with minor injuries, I incorporated some of the free tips and movements into my workouts making up my routine as I went. All good so I thought. Fast forward two years Sept 2015 and another injury but this one was something different. I broke my neck and was out of the water for a year. Out of shape, limited movement, fatter than I’ve ever been. Nothing moved like it should. Not just my neck but everything…. back, legs, shoulders you name it. Just a mad circle of constant setbacks. So back to the gym right? Incorporate some of my “free” tips and movements right? But things did not progress as I expected. I mentioned age and was beginning to think that maybe it’s getting the upper hand and just maybe my lifelong surf journey was ending. I’ve had a lot of time to think about this so what was missing? Was I doing something wrong? What is the plan to get my body moving? It’s obvious that my self made “plan” was not working and if I was to continue to be a surfer and move like one I need to have a plan and follow it. So as a birthday present to myself and a commitment to progressing, I purchased the Surf Athlete program. I have to say this program is spot on. In the first week alone I realized the depth of neglect my body has endured by not having a plan focussed on flexibility, movement and strength. It’s just plain awesome that I really don’t need to go to a gym and I can still get totally worked. The phone app (which is perfect) and an open spot to move and a plan is all that’s needed. It’s what I needed. The journey continues. Thanks Cris

Desde 2012
Started to leech Cris free videos on YouTube in the beginning. Bought my first training program in 2012 called STS (Surf Training Success). Back then it was all about PDFs. Been hammering that program ever since but thought it was time to get into a new program. Surf Athlete Training Program is an app in my phone with videos, feels like Cris is in the gym with me guiding me through. No more PDFs.
This is a extremely well formated and solid program. I do not regret one cent spending on this program, nor the STS program. Loving the term “prehab” by the way. Ever since the STS program I have been getting funny looks at the gym performing some of the drills. Six years later look who’s laughing – pain free, strong & mobile.
Looking forward to get to the next level with this program.

Por fin un programa que es LEGÍTIMO
Been following along with the content Cris has been putting out since I started surfing 7-8 years ago and always end up coming back for more. There is SO much BS in the health and fitness world, I feel like this program has gotten it figured out. While other programs might briefly hit one or two important subjects, this program is well rounded from the importance of breath, recovery, mobility, injury prevention, etc. The guy is all about learning, growing and progression for himself and everyone he comes into contact with. I find myself constantly recommending his content to fellow surfers and any athletes really that are seeking legit health and enhancement of their performance. I have finally figured out some ongoing injuries and gained confidence that I can charge without an exceeded risk of injury. I couldn’t be more grateful.. Cris is an absolute legend and an inspiration on so many levels. This app is an awesome life hack for anyone interested in true health, well being and kicking ass in the meantime.

In the last 3 years I’ve had surgery on both shoulders for torn rotator cuff muscles. Recently started using your program to improve my pop ups which as you can imagine have become very sloppy. As I write this review I’m in Lombok and thanks to the strengthening and mobility protocols I’m back surfing as well as or better than before. Keep up the good work.

Empujando hacia el futuro
Every year brings added aches and pains. When you’re in your 20’s and 30’s these changes appear subtile and inconsequential. Once we stagger into our 40’s and beyond, the changes are more noticeable and impactful to overall health. Realizing you’re going through these changes is critical in ensuring you remain healthy and active for the years ahead. Knowing how to extend your bodies functionality is critical. The Surf Strength Coach program delivers on all accounts. It addresses the importance of pliability and flexibility to one’s surfing. It focuses on the key strength muscles needed for each surf session. As a 70 year old surfer, I find Cris’ instruction to be doable and totally applicable to my surfing capability. Cris also encourages direct communications between himself and the client to capitalize on his knowledge and the client’s desire to improve. Growing old gracefully is not an option without dedicating the time and effort to counter the bodies desire to essentially digress into old age. The saying “use it or lose it” sadly has a critical impetus on surfers as we age. We must be able to identify with certainty those parts of our bodies that need special focus for rehab and enhancement as we age. In addition, an overall exercise program that keeps us limber and strong helps us to stroll into the golden years of surfing with minimum suffering — both physical and mental. Cris’ program accomplishes this on all levels. Well recommended !
