Equipment

This is a semi-advanced exercise that targets the triceps, shoulders and chest and is what I have my surfers try. Even great for non-surfers!

Difficulty Level: Intermediate to Advanced

Muscle Group(s): Triceps, shoulder and chest. Great for core stability and mimics what your surfboard might feel like underneath you! I love this one.

Equipment: Inflated balance disc and the INDO Board

Progression: Raise one leg off the floor, or place feet on a BOSU dome or another inflated disc.

Preparation: Assume the push up position. If you are a beginner, you can bend your knees. Make sure the disc is centered underneath the INDO Board.

Start

NOTE: If the disc is over inflated it will be much harder, than if it’s softer. Legs extended on floor.

Movement: From the start position, lower your chest to the INDO and then press up into the push up.

Finish

Push up with the strength of your entire shoulder girdle back to a straight-arm position.

Repeat movement sequence for recommended repetitions.
