Nice review and will help focus me more on SPM. One variable not mentioned here and is critical to understanding your speed is the concept of hull speed. Increasing paddle rate and or paddle force gives a diminishing speed return at some point. The relationship of energy (power) expended is non linear to achieve higher and higher speed as hull drag becomes more inefficient. That's really what's happening when you start getting up in the higher SPM and is a corollary to heart rate.
Question I have 10 ur old hard BOTE AXIOM, w a shit paddle. (Working on new paddle) While working on my paddle stroke and trying to increase my stroke rate and speed. However everytime I change to the right side, the board goes left, every single time. Any help?
I think you should pull longer or use a different blade to bring your heart rate to an equal point. It's a bit like jogging. I can run a certain heart rate at a low or high cadence this will result in a different pace. Or we run at a certain pace with different cadence and monitor the heartrate. Using different heart rates is like doing a completely different training. Sorry, but this data has no coherence for me.
Super interesting with real ilfe stats, thanks so much. I would be great to do the same test on an iSUP rather than a full race board. A lot of us don't have race boards so can't relate to the speeds, even if the linnear progression is probably still valid. Seeing you do it on an iSUP would allow us to see the difference that someone with excellent technique compared to ourselves. Keep up the films!
Do you think it is possible to build Muscle Mass with sup? What training should be done? I don't care about speed or anything else. I already go to the gym but I would also like to do it in the sea(I already have the sup 14)
SUP is more of a cardio exercise rather than a strength gaining workout for muscle mass. You will gain endurance strength but not mass strength as that requires a different form of exercise. So, unfortunately muscle mass exercises are better for the gym and not the water.

Yes, you’re absolutely correct and it’s something I did not demonstrate very well in my B-roll shots as I was focused on showing the SPM in the side shots. I apologize for that. Thanks for pointing that out though and helping me demonstrate things even better. 🤙🏼
I really appreciate the info, and I promise I don’t mean this in a snarky way, but “eckspecially” is not a word. The word is especially-the e flows straight into the s.
