Are you out of gas way too soon?
A healthy, strong, and mobile upper body is absolutely necessary to paddle as long and hard as you need to, and to just enjoy being out in the surf.
You're not a Surfer....
You're a Paddler
If you can’t paddle, you can’t surf! Paddling is basically running with your arms, and most people haven't done too many arm marathons as prep-work for their surfing!
Combine the total lack of endurance in the upper body with years spent at a desk with worsening posture, it’s a perfect recipe for frustrating surfs, failed paddle-outs, and painful shoulders.
Surfing...ha!... more like Arm Running!
Become a paddle-monster
Not only will these programs place an emphasis on the health of your shoulders, but also progress into advanced power and strength endurance routines for robust and durable shoulders.

MEET THE GUY WHO’S TRYING TO
HELP YOUR SURFING…
Cris Mills
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.
Frequently Asked Questions
- First off, you need your body. Grab that….
- The rest of this program uses minimal equipment, but there are a few pieces that will allow you to get the most out of the program.
- An inflatable exercise ball. Buy one. Cheap ones are 10$ or less. The best quality (AOK duraball or mediball) are around 100$. For some spine work, hip stretches, and a few other drills a ball is a nice thing to have.
- A “superband”. If you have stiff hips I’d highly recommend you grab one of these higher density bands. If you google “superband resistance band” you’ll get many hits, with companies like Rogue, Spri, or Perform Better manufacturing these. You want a full circle band, no openings or handles. They’ll come in varying widths and resistance levels. You’ll want a 1.5inch or 4cm width, or even a bit bigger, up to 2.5inch or 6cm. Resistance levels will vary with companies, but as long as you get a band around those widths you’ll be good to go.
- A foam roller. There is 1 movement that uses a meter long foam roller, but if you don’t have one, don’t sweat it, it’s not absolutely necessary. You can use a foam roller for tissue release, but I often use a peanut (see below).
- Personally, I rarely use a foam roller and mostly use a “peanut”, which is two taped tennis balls. Simply tape them together, or put them in a sock and knot the end. Boom, you have a tennis ball peanut.
- At times we’ll also use a single tennis ball, or for those that have done quite a lot of tissue work before, you may want to use a lacrosse ball, or ball that is more dense than tennis ball. A golf ball can do wonders for the bottom of the foot.
