An intermediate program for batters that doesn't require any equipment & focuses on the foundational movements needed down the track to be fit & injury free
Imagine gaining those few extra kms per hour of speed that you've been wanting...
Or feeling fit and strong at the bowling crease late in the day after a long spell...
To do this you need to condition your body to cope with the challenges of being a fast-bowler.
As T20 cricket becomes more prominent, batters around the world are looking for ways to be able to hit the ball further more consistently.
