Strength, Conditioning, Mobility and
Flexibility for Paddlers
​
Whether you paddle SUP, White Water, Open boat, Greenland,
wings or more, fitness is often overlooked by paddlers.
Keep yourself fit.
Paddle further and longer.
Gain power in your paddle strokes.
Become robust and prevent injuries.
Unlock extra range of motion for rolling, bracing and turning
​
​​
Over 18 only.
We can offer the following sessions:
Get Strong
Strength: The amount of total force you are able to generate.
Power: The ability to generate force quickly.
Conditioning: Training your body to a state of good health and fitness for specific movements and activities.
These aspects are often overlooked by paddlers. Incorporating these sessions around your paddling (especially in the winter months) will allow you to stay in that tide race for longer, power over eddylines, get extra reach on your boofs, improve balance (through mind-muscle connections) be able to power off from a standing start, help with confidence in rescues and many more benefits.

Get Flexy
Often confused for the same term, mobility and flexibility will also help unlock confidence on the water.
​
Flexibility: the range of motion that your body can acheive.
Mobility: Your body's ability to deal with load in these extreme ranges of motion.
​
We can improve these in our sessions, allowing you to remain injury free, get extra reach on your roll, stern rudder without stiffening up, have solid 180 degree sweep strokes, get into positions required for playing on the river, easier cross-decking and improving general confidence on the water.
