I make bowling every other Saturday a mini one-sided work out
I found a way to concentrate at bowling without actually thinking about bowling cuz I really suck at, although my average has gone up a little from a 70 something to 94 WOO HOO!! So this is how I make my mini-one sided work out and try to forget I’m bowling:
1. Step up onto lane and pick up 12 lb ball and find spot on lane where I stand
2. Deep breathe, contract abs and align body while holding 12 lb ball towards my right side
3. Step foward while pushing 12 lb ball out in front; take 4 steps while slowly and in a controlled motion bring 12 lb ball back;
4. Curtzy squat while swining arm forward in controlled motion and have ball roll off of hand;
5. PRAY IT DOESN’T GO IN THE GUTTER!!
6. Repeat for 10 frames for 3 games.
So since I very rarely make a strike I’m doing a curtzy squat twice a frame for a total of 60 curtzy squats and contracting abs 60 times.
I did this last time I bowled and I could feel my hamstrings, tightening.
Can’t wait to bowl tomorrow nite to do my curtzy squats and abs.
Have a great weekend everyone.

We’ve been going bowling too. Nothing serious. Just a reason for the guys to drink beer and act stupid. It’s fun though. Not sure I’m brave enough to try your lil routine with an audience though! I’ll think about it!
I love bowling and I actually used to be on a league even though I wasn’t very good. It is great exercise and fun, you also can meet some great people. I met a friend bowling who encouraged me to join buddyslim with her and even though we don’t bowl together anymore we will always be friends.
Good for you. I went bowling after not having done it in YEARS and I was sweating like a cute piglet…not… And the muscle soreness after.
Have fun Ann Marie. *hugs*
