Written by an exercise physiologist, rehab specialist and strength and conditioning coach, much wisdom can be gained from applying the principles of this book.

There are many generic surf fitness, surf stretching and surf workout programs available today, but nothing quite so specific to the health of a surfer’s body tissues and required movement positions. This book is endorsed by professional surfers Tom Carroll, Davey Cathels and Bec Woods. With a solid body maintenance routine, you’re able to perform the imperfect movements that surfing requires, with enough movement buffer to avoid ripping muscles, popping capsules and tearing ligaments. Sounds like it could be a good idea! Just as we regularly need to eat, drink, sleep and exercise, we also need to work on improving our movement and tissue health. If you surf everyday, you’re stressing the same muscles over and over again, whilst the others are taking a break. Mobility and soft tissue work will help balance your body out and ensure that your next surf will feel easier, looser and more athletic.
