Mobility is critical to performance, injury prevention, and longevity – not to mention feeling good. But what makes an effective mobility routine? To double World Champion John John Florence, it means bite-sized, consistent movements throughout the day. “I’m really lazy!” he admits. Here’s how he does it. |
|
|
Everything starts with your feet: any weakness travels up the chain, as John John discovered through ankle and then knee injuries. Invest in your foundation, building foot strength, flexibility and resilience. |
|
|
Getting comfortable at endpoints is key: once you’re confident there, you can trust your feeling. John John spends time rocking, rotating, and weighting his ankles through their full range of motion. |
|
|
Opening the hips is key, and connects the whole chain. Dynamic stretches, yoga poses, and massage balls help open things up. A holistic focus is critical: “It’s crazy how much it’s connected.” |
|
|
High performance surfing involves lots of counter rotation, and a strong core adds power to your surfing. Highly mobile shoulders can reduce paddle fatigue, allowing you to catch more waves, so stretch out and massage deep into the tissue. |
