paddling fatigue

100% this. Get to where you can do 15-20 reps in a set and your golden.
practice swimming in a pool 5 days a week for 7 years before attempting to paddle a surfboard
Tip: Do the Russian Fighter Pull-Up Program
This simple plan involves "sneaking up" on reps in the pull-up. It just takes a few minutes per day. Check it out.

Just got a set this week. Some resistance bands and a jump rope too for travel workouts. Thinking about getting a sandbag kettlebell also. Getting old sucks, used to just surf and hold a good amount of muscle naturally. 31 in a few weeks, can’t imagine what the future is going to be like

I really like my BruteForce sandbag kit (athlete size, comes w/ 30, 50lb filler bags). Shouldering, ground to overhead, TGUs, and loaded carries.

You think 31 is old? You're still a kid!!
Just kidding. For real though, stay active, keep muscle tone up, keep your legs strong.
Not really. Surf windy afternoon consistent beachbreaks regularly and you'll do so much paddling that any other type of spot at the same size will be a breeze.
Buy a 5,1 CI pod, put on 5mm wetsuit, booties, hood and gloves, paddle to Channel Islands and back everyday. Done and done.
More volume in your boards. Make them work for you instead of fighting them.
Same waist line (32) at 205 and 185.Well yeah, you drop 20 lbs of beer gut, you surf better!
Dropping body fat is huge.
I used to have big shoulders from lifting weights and it just seemed to make paddling harder.
What you want is thoracic spine mobility and Low body fat.
But you can still dead lift and do pull ups and have that.
I like doing over head holds of a bar bell. I notice that help probably from increase mobility.
Has anyone mentioned surfing a lot?
That helps

At 30 you are grieving the loss of youth.
When you are 50 you are grieving the loss of adult hood.
I'm 58 and I just don't give a fuck no more.
I like living but I kind of don't care if I die.
If I got the word I was going to die, I would still freak, but I would also express a sigh of relief and I could start doing tons of heroine.
