Outstanding explanation of Why? and the exercises for How? are super. I found that all of those can be done effectively on my vasa trainer machine at home and it has many more exercises I use to round out this landlocked surfer's fitness routine. Thanks!
gracias por compartir,puse en practica tus consejos por dos meses y los resultados son exelentes,mi deporte es el kayak , tengo una lesión crónica en el hombro izquierdo que me provocaba grandes dolores después de remar y ahora es una molestia cada vez menor.Lo sigo utilizando como parte de mi rutina de actividad física
so we just had a cyclone come down and i paddled for about 6 hours with a break for lunch and my arms were totally gone im 34 now and decided i need to do some extra training to maintain my paddle strength im going to religiously do your exercises to see if i get some good results cheers mate
Most people are about as good as their weakest link. With two shoulder dislocations/surgeries (whitewater slalom) my flexibility really sucks on one side. I will be incorporating some of your tips to help with my paddling SUP. Solid explanations with WHY the exercise will help.Thanks
MSW ... very good stuff ... the key line for me was "no core control - your leaking energy". This tutorial was precise, efficient and most importantly, very effective. The last drill paid the biggest dividends for strength and endurance for me. Thanks!
Thanks allot man! Been having some troubles with my shoulder after a waterpolo incident which has set me back for a while now and still feeling the pains.. The anatomie explanations you include are great! keep em coming.
Thanks for the pointers. I’m starting my second year paddling, and am recovering from a shoulder injury (not from paddling). I have hyper-mobility, so my PT was explaining to me just how important it is to strengthen my shoulders to keep them back when I’m paddling. Thanks!
Wisdom way beyond your years Chris! One of the best videos I have seen..I watched it all! Be nice to catch up and trade ideas one day Chris. Of course, you look better on TH-cam than I do. :)
Pull ups are definitely the most effective paddle strength excersise, gives you a lot more explosive paddling when your lats and upper back are significantly stronger
Re active passive hang. As paddling left right left right would there be benefit from hanging from a trapeze and swing side to side by getting momentum from active tension on one side then the other? Maybe wide mounted rings.
Hi, any tips for some alternatives to hanging. I have trouble with my forearms, golfers elbow. I've pretty much recovered with a lot of rehab but any excercises involving hanging e.g. pull-ups, seem to excascerbate the issue. So any alternatives that could help would be great.
Thank you! I got this fix idea lately to start kayaking and my shoulders/arms are weak as can be, this is some excellent exercises to add to my workout!
Thank you for those execises these will be put on my schedule for the gym, mainly because I only do gym to "work up" my body to prepare for the summer ( I have had a long brake from kayaking ) - also, I would like to know, are there any exercises that can improve posture in general, I have a tendensy to curve to much. I think I need more strengh in my lower back to get a more straigt posture when Iam kayaking !
Dead lifts and Stiffed leg dead lifts, also back extensions are great for the lower back area. But most of all pull back the shoulders and pop out the chest and keep correcting yourself on it. You can do Bent over rows for chest and shoulder pulling back. Let a fitness instructor help you with these exercises because they need to be done correctly or you won't benefit of them.
I really like all of this, but the row you do with the pink bands needs to be modified. I hope you don't paddle with your arm straight, anymore than you would swim freestyle with your arm straight. You paddle with your arm coming down by your side with your elbow bent. So I'll modify this exercise accordingly. I desperately need all of these exercises since I'm 60, haven't surfed for years, and can only get over to Santa Cruz maybe 4 days per month.
Great exercises. But can we please call muscles by their correct anatomical names? It's called triceps and biceps, not tricep and bicep. And no, one biceps/triceps is not a bicep/tricep.
The S is not special. It's part of the correct spelling. Sure, I understand where someone lives when they say New Yor or Lo Angele, Washingto, Pari or Berli, we all can. That was not my point.
Great video for improving surfing. Most important statement is at the beginning: 80-90% of surfing is Paddling!

Awesome vid. Thank you for sharing
Awesome vid- very clear, concise, and thorough. Excited to check out more!
Excellent explanation and demonstration - Thank You!
This is one of the best physical fitness videos I have ever seen!
The last couple of surf sessions i couldn't get through the breakers, thank you so much for these exercises!
Last session I was half tired getting out beyond break line lol. Gotta keep getting out there though! Never a bad day at the beach :)
Go swimming every second or third day for an hour. It can help massively
I love ur one arm stuff as paddling a one arm at a time activity.

This workout is also great for kayakers. Stabilise the scap and pull with power.

This was really well done.
Brilliant information and exercises. Thank you very much Cris
Brilliant stuff. Thanks.

Thank you! 💪💪
This Video was really great! Thank you for your wisdom!
Fantastic. Great exercises and explanations. Great to see the prehab work, those rotator cuffs are vulnerable!
Thank you so much! very helpful video as I have never paid attention to keeping shoulders protected through healthy posture

Great tutorial, well explained, I will be adding these to my routine.
Pulling... Bring ur sternum forward!!! Being mindful of elbows and sternum and ur winning.
Awesome vid thanks bro!
Good stuff...thank you!!!
Pull ups are definitely the most effective paddle strength excersise, gives you a lot more explosive paddling when your lats and upper back are significantly stronger
Very well done!
Paddling endurance and wave timing are both my biggest challenges. That and waves that closeout on me lol...
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, this vid was very helpful to me and I hope it is just as helpful to others. Great work!
Chris Mills is a legend!
Great video on strength conditioning, thanks.
Excellent advice and knowledge of the body and for training . thanks
Good video! Definitely getting stronger just from paddling but need to spend time deliberately improving strength!
thank you !
Great exercise routine, something I was looking for. Thanks.

Yep, great vid. As an older bloke I'm working through a bunch of shoulder issues due to not caring about this stuff when I was younger.
Re active passive hang. As paddling left right left right would there be benefit from hanging from a trapeze and swing side to side by getting momentum from active tension on one side then the other? Maybe wide mounted rings.

Thanks mate, this is awesome for outrigger paddling 💪

thank you, I will look into these drills and see if anyone can look over that Iam doing it the "right way" -
90 seconds in - its a like from me
Who do u schedule gym sessions around surfing ?????? Surf conditions are always changing .. obviously
It’s called “neutral spine”👍🏼
My main problem is not shoulder s but my lower back aking
R u related to onison?
Pull ups gave me frozen shoulder. So I stopped

I've been hanging recently and my pinkys gone numb... Like all day.
Haven’t surfed in a bit and my arms are already feeling way weaker
Same that’s why I’m here
tssssss hoooo
Good routine! Thank you! But how about not constantly referring to surfers as "guys"?
it's a cultural thing! growing up in NJ we called a group of people "You Guys" even if the group was a bunch of guys, girls and or both.
Great exercises. But can we please call muscles by their correct anatomical names? It's called triceps and biceps, not tricep and bicep. And no, one biceps/triceps is not a bicep/tricep.
I think we can all understand what he's talking about without that special little S at the end of the word
The S is not special. It's part of the correct spelling. Sure, I understand where someone lives when they say New Yor or Lo Angele, Washingto, Pari or Berli, we all can. That was not my point.
You are of course free to continue calling it bicep, tricep and quadricep :-))
