How Olympic Surfer Caroline Marks Used Resistance Band Training to Win Gold — And How You Can Train the Same Way
Caroline Marks didn’t just dominate the surfing world with raw talent. The 2023 World Surfing Champion and 2024 Olympic Gold Medalist built her success on smart, consistent, and science-backed training. One of the most important tools in her routine? Pro Balance Bands — resistance bands designed to strengthen stabilizing muscles, improve balance, and build powerful, surf-ready core strength.
Today, Caroline credits resistance band training as a key part of her preparation for the 2024 Paris Olympics, where she delivered one of the most impressive Gold-medal performances in women’s surfing history.
Why Resistance Bands Became a Game-Changer for Caroline Marks
Surfing at the elite level requires far more than technique on the board. Athletes must train for:
- Core strength and rotational power
- Explosive balance and stability
- Joint protection and injury prevention
- Mobility and body control
Caroline used Pro Balance Bands throughout her off-season and pre-Olympic training to keep her body strong, stable, and ready for high-pressure competition. The bands activate smaller stabilizing muscles that traditional weights often miss — exactly the muscles surfers rely on to stay controlled during turns, cutbacks, and aerial maneuvers.
Key benefits she relied on:
- Improved core stability for powerful pop-ups
- Enhanced balance for sharper maneuvers
- Strengthened hips, glutes, and shoulders to prevent overuse injuries
- Increased mobility without strain
- Portable, low-impact training anywhere in the world
The result? A stronger, more balanced, more explosive athlete heading into Paris.
