MEET THE GUY WHO’S TRYING TO
HELP YOUR SURFING…

Cris Mills

Performance Coach, Massage Therapist, CHEK Practitioner

My name is Cris Mills, I operate Surfstrengthcoach.com, and work with people that want to improve their health, movement, and performance, and it’s usually so they can surf better. On a daily basis I help people and surfers train from rehab to performance. I know what a surfer needs to do to keep themselves in the ocean, and have been spreading that information through my various work online.

Improving your surfing requires improving the foundations of movement and athleticism. Flexibility is a key part of that process. I wanted to give surfers an easy resource to improve their flexibility, help to eliminate pain, and simply move and feel better.

Surfing in pain sucks as well, and I’ve done it, and I’m sure most of you have as well. Surfers, athletes, people, we all need to work on body maintenance, and help keep ourselves out of pain. This program will help teach you how to do this.

I aim to change the way physical preparedness is dealt with for surfing, and combine everything I have learned, and continue to learn, to help improve surfers body so they can stay involved with the ocean.

    An awesome workout program!

    I´m generally not one for reviewing solely out of pure laziness, but I am delighted to make an exception for such a fantastic product. This program is the best investment I have made for my surfing – by far. 
    I am an intermediate surfer not spending nearly as much time in the water as I would like. I’ve perfected my paddling but maintained an awful technique on the wave face. This program has unlocked a path to progression in a way endless YouTubing just won’t. After a vast amount of ‘aha’ moments, I have a clear trajectory for taking my surfing to the next level. Excellent work. Just TAKE MY MONEY!

    Legend!

    I just want to say thanks for the time and care you put into all the videos. I love the attention to detail.
    I am recovering from a knee injury (4 years ago:) and my body has never righted itself since. After only 2 weeks of the bodyweight course, I’m getting a deeper understanding of where the imbalances lie. In the short term, I’m already feeling stronger in the water.

    Thanks for everything

    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.

    A total game changer!

    Can’t go without your app! 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!

    Like it!

    I really like the breath work. It is definitely something I struggle with and at 51 have tended to avoid surfing past about 2-3 ft because I had a couple of bad experiences with wipe outs and being held under. Today I went for a surf and it was a good 2 – 3 ft (live on the Northern Beaches of Sydney) and wiped out and was held under. I could feel the panic rising, then the breath training kicked in. I focused on holding my breath and started counting and stopped fighting the wave. I popped out of the water at about 8 seconds (like I said small waves). The breath training is building my confidence to be able to surf conditions that I would have avoided. Don’t get me wrong I ain’t ever gonna be a big wave surfer, but I now have a way of feeling better about surfing slightly bigger waves. I now look forward to the 4 footers.

    thank you and keep up the good work!

    Coach, you probably get tons of testimonials already, but quickly I want to say that your program is simply awesome. I have done now first 4 weeks of the program and I am already feeling big differences in my body. Earlier I have done crossfit, climbing, yoga etc, but none of these prepare body for the waves or paddling. Also the surfskate program has opened new ideas. I am 43 years old and have surfed only for 3 years but the plan is to keep surfing in my 60s, and with this stuff it is possible.

    You’re a legend.

    Your surf strength products are the best thing that happen to me in 2020. I believe I have purchased every one product you offer. I’m healthier, more flexible, and surf better than I ever have. Because if that, 2020 was all that bad for me… basically because of your online programs. If you are ever is San Diego reach out and we can grab a surf. You’re a legend.
