STEP 1

Setup

Put on bowling shoes and choose a ball with a weight that suits your hand. Loosen your wrists, shoulders, and knees to prepare.

STEP 2

Start phase

Hold the ball close to your body and start walking forward in rhythm. Bend your knees at the foul line and swing your arm naturally to release the ball.

STEP 3

End phase

Slowly loosen your wrists and shoulders as you finish. Let your breathing settle, then check your workout duration.

STEP 4

Target muscles

Repeated walking and rolling lightly work your whole body. Use your legs to lower your stance and your shoulder and arm to control the ball.

STEP 5

Common mistakes

Do not step past the foul line onto the slippery lane. Avoid twisting a heavy ball with only your wrist.

STEP 6

Breathing

Breathe naturally instead of holding your breath as you bowl. Settle your breathing while waiting for your turn.

STEP 7

Coach tip

Record the time spent bowling. Do not enter scores or strike counts.
