How to Do
The bowling should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the bowling.
Beginning
1. You extend your bowling arm and point the ball toward the lane as you take your first step. The pushaway is the term for this. Your elbow should now be straight, having been bent at the start of the stance. Make sure your arm is pointed straight forward, not to the side, otherwise your shot will be ruined.
2. As you prepare to perform your backswing, the bowling ball comes back down after the pushaway. The ball should be down around your leg as your foot strikes the ground for the second step.
3. The backswing is then continued, and the ball is raised once more. The ball should be at its highest point behind your back and your arm should be straight as you take your third step.
Movement
1. The ball will come back forward after the backswing, but this time you will be letting go of it. As you release, your foot will travel along the approach area surface towards the foul line.
2. When your foot touches down, the ball should be travelling past your leg and out in front of you once again. Your thumb should be coming out of the thumb-hole at this point, and you should be turning.
ACSM Recommendations
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the American College of Sports Medicine advocates that you take part in a combined 30 minutes of moderate to intense aerobic or anaerobic activity most days out of the week.
What does that mean for you?
Based on the intensity and your typical hour-long strength training and cardio program, that usually works out at three to five sessions each week.
