Strength & Conditioning for BOWLERS - Bodyweight Beginner
A beginner program for bowlers that doesn't require any equipment & focuses on the foundational movements needed down the track to be fit, strong & 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.
This program has been designed specifically for fast- bowlers who have limited or no experience in Strength & Conditioning training. All the exercises are specific to fast bowlers and as you get fitter, stronger & more powerful, your chances of bowling faster increase, while also minimising the chance of getting injured.
How this program will help you:
- Improve mobility to minimise chances of injury
- Increase strength in bowling specific muscles
- Improve functional strength
- Increase power to increase speed
- Increase fitness levels while building muscle
This 4-week program focuses on building a strong foundation for fast-bowlers. It is ideal for cricketers who have little or no experience in the gym or with functional movement patterns. A gym isn't required as all exercises use your body weight instead of machines and there is minimal equipment needed.
