Chocolate Box Training | Surfing Strength and Conditioning Program

TRAIN LIKE A SURFER

There's a misconception that surf training is just flexibility, this is part of it, but if you want to start throwing buckets and developing power and style, strength training is crucial.

Our surfing strength and conditioning program is designed to improve athleticism that transfers to the water, targeting physical qualities relevant to surfing; strength, power, energy system development, mobility and injury resilience.

Designed and delivered by Sam Church (ASCA Level I Strength & Conditioning Coach, Physiotherapist and resident Surfer) on Mondays to Thursdays at regular times each week.

Whether you’re a weekend warrior or winning board riders, our Surf Program will help you to surf better for longer.

What if the surf is good?

Surfing is the priority. Our classes are scheduled after surf hours as best as possible. If the surf is cooking and you've spent hours in the water, programming is modified to match what the waves are doing and how often our athletes have been surfing.

Is there a surf program only membership?

$49/week for access to all 3 Surf Strength sessions. Note that this membership does not give you access to any other classes in the gym or use of the open gym area.

Will there be a coach with me through the sessions?

Yep! Sam will be at each session to coach you through your program in the group setting.

I would love to do Reformer as active recovery, can I access these classes?

Those on the CBT Unlimited membership have access to any class on the timetable. Keen to access these classes but you're currently on the Surfers membership? Let us know and we can upgrade your membership - easy as!

Can I put my membership on hold if needed?

Not a problem. Simply email your suspension request to hello@chocolateboxtraining.com

How does the membership pay cycle work?

All members will be debited weekly. This is an automatic payment.

What if I'm injured?

We can organise a thorough physiotherapy assessment
with Sam before your first/next gym session to see how the program can be modified to match your current ability/rehab restrictions. Health funds accepted for this. There’s always a way to train!
