Stand-Up Paddle boarding (“SUP”) is an increasingly popular water sport that originated in Hawaii. Participants stand on a specially designed surfboard and use a paddle to catch larger waves, travel across the water, and reach farther distances. The SUP-er must use all of their core musculature, proprioceptors, upper and lower body strength, and agility in order to balance on the SUP and move across the water. In particular, strength in the ankles, hips, knees, shoulders, elbows, and trunk must be able to stabilize and move in multiple planes with full range of motion. StrongBoard Balance trains both the upper and lower body using functional training movement patterns that can mimic the motions performed on the board. StrongBoard balance is the perfect “land” product that can assist the SUP athlete in anticipating the balance, reaction time, and proprioception necessary for SUP activities while out of the water.

StrongBoard Balance Benefits:

• Core Strengthening - Core muscles assist in spine stabilization, which supports better balance and improved overall performance
• Improved coordination and reaction time
• Balance - Recruit balance recovery muscles and strengthen ligaments and tendons surrounding high stress areas, like knees and ankles
• Increased power
• Increased anaerobic and aerobic endurance
• Multi-planar movement and range of motion
• Improved lower, upper, and core musculature strength
