Who it's for

For people whose week bends around the swell

Marejada is for people who want to surf often, surf well, and make everything around surfing (training, recovery, and preparation) support their time in the water, not compete with it.

Why it's different

Designed around the ocean, not the gym

  • Surfing is part of the plan.

    Marejada adapts around the conditions. When the waves are worth surfing, surfing takes priority. When they're not, the plan shifts to where your effort is better spent.

  • Built on its own forecast.

    Marejada reads the surf with its own forecast, built in-house, and shapes each day's plan around it. It combines NOAA and European wave models with seafloor depth and surfer reports to size the swell at your break.

  • The plan keeps moving with you.

    Surf conditions, recent training, recovery, and programming needs all influence what comes next. Instead of following the same static schedule week after week, Marejada adjusts as the inputs change.

  • Recovery isn't an afterthought.

    Mobility, recovery, and injury-risk reduction are built into the programming alongside strength and conditioning, not added on as extra work when you're already tired.

  • Hurt? The plan adapts.

    The plan works around every injury and nagging area, with rehab for each one. As things heal, it checks in and eases you back into full training.

  • More isn't always better.

    Marejada doesn't manufacture workouts just to fill the calendar. Sometimes the right call is to train. Sometimes it's to recover. Sometimes it's to do nothing.

About

Marejada started with one of surfing's biggest frustrations: missing a day when the waves are firing because injury or fatigue kept you out of the water.

Balancing surfing with training, recovery, work, family, and everything else means constantly deciding what deserves your time. Most programs don't help. They give you a fixed schedule and treat surfing as separate.

Surfers don't live on fixed schedules: the ocean decides.

So we built Marejada around a different idea: the goal isn't to train more. It's to stay ready to surf, perform at a high level, and keep doing it for as long as possible.

Built by a surfer, backed by science

Marejada was founded by Ryan O'Rourke, a lifelong surfer with a background in quantitative analysis, data science, and artificial intelligence, including experience in AI research, model evaluation, and AI safety and ethics.

Beyond technology, Ryan brings firsthand experience in performance training. He is a former NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist who trained under an elite sports-performance coach whose athletes have gone on to compete in the NFL, NBA, MLB, and beyond.

After years of navigating injuries and fatigue, and repeatedly researching and assembling one-off training routines, Ryan saw an opportunity to make the process more efficient, adaptive, and sustainable.

Marejada combines those experiences with established exercise-science principles, including periodization, progressive overload, recovery, and injury-risk reduction, adapting them to the unique physical demands of surfing.
