Strength & Conditioning for BOWLERS - Bodyweight Intermediate
An intermediate program for bowlers that doesn't require any equipment & focuses on the foundational movements needed down the track to be fit & injury free
Imagine bowling quicker and for longer before you start to fatigue...
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 you also minimise 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 builds on from the level 1 body weight beginner program. It is ideal for cricketers who have completed the body weight beginner program or those who have a bit of experience with strength and conditioning but want to ensure they're doing the correct exercises and using the correct techniques for each exercise relevant to fast-bowling. A gym isn't required as all exercises use your body weight instead of machines and there is minimal equipment needed.
