How Resistance Training Can Take Your Surfing to the Next Level
Surfing requires far more than the ability to ride a wave. To perform at your best, you need explosive power, core stability, balance, mobility, and full-body strength. Whether you’re a beginner or pushing toward elite-level performance, resistance training is one of the most effective ways to improve your surfing.
Pro Balance Bands give surfers a complete, portable, eco-friendly training system—trusted by 2024 Olympic Gold Medalist Caroline Marks, who has been using our bands since 2019 to build power, endurance, and stability.
Why Resistance Training Matters for Surfers
Build Strength Without Bulk
Surfing engages nearly every muscle in your body—from paddling power in your shoulders and back to explosive pop-ups driven by your core and legs. Resistance bands target these muscles through functional, surf-specific movements that build strength without adding unnecessary bulk.
With Pro Balance Bands offering up to 30 lbs of variable tension, you can sculpt lean, athletic strength that translates directly to more powerful paddling, sharper turns, and faster pop-ups.
Improve Balance, Control, and Stability
Every wave is unpredictable. To react quickly and stay in control, surfers depend on strong stabilizing muscles and high-level proprioception—your body’s sense of movement and position.
Resistance band training improves:
- Core activation for stability on unstable surfaces
- Balance and coordination
- Dynamic control during turns, drops, and maneuvers
This means more confidence on your board—whether you're carving clean lines or navigating choppy surf.
Boost Endurance and Improve Recovery
Long surf sessions require serious stamina. Resistance training builds the muscular endurance and joint integrity surfers need for long paddles, fast recovery between waves, and reduced fatigue.
Our FREE weekly YouTube workouts are designed to continually improve strength, endurance, and overall surf fitness.
Enhance Mobility and Prevent Injuries
Surfing places significant stress on the shoulders, hips, and knees. Pro Balance Bands offer a joint-friendly, low-impact way to strengthen stabilizers, improve mobility, and reduce the risk of injuries caused by overuse or instability.
Our 100% natural latex bands provide smooth, controlled resistance that protects joints while allowing surfers to move more freely and efficiently.

Whether you’re warming up on the beach, training in your living room, or hitting the road for a surf trip, Pro Balance Bands make surf-specific training easier than ever.
- Lightweight and portable
- Five tension levels for all training styles
- Perfect for warm-ups, strength circuits, mobility work, and recovery
