As winter and colder weather quickly approach , many of you will not make it into the water as much as you’d like. Now is the perfect time to get that workout routine up and running. John and Joe from AmpedSurf™ have four exercises to help keep you fit and riding more waves.

arm circles

This exercise is an excellent upper body warm-up and will help build the flexibility and range of movement you need for efficient paddling. Begin in board stance with arms at your side. Lift both arms straight in front of you as you point forward, roll them up toward the sky, and eventually back down toward your side as you complete a backward circle. Keep your hands as far from your body as possible during entire circle. Reverse direction.

15 REPS x 3 SETS
REST 10 SEC
