Husker workout schedule for bowlers

Husker workout schedule for bowlers

I'll tell ya right now. I would never survive a training with this college team. I think both of my knees would give out in the first 5 minutes. Athletes are much more advanced these days when it comes to sports and are definately gear for the long run. But to be honest with you. I don't remember a lot of guys or girls in bowling ever really getting serious injuries either. Ummm maybe to much is to much? Anyways still a good read. Check out the article below

According to Gary Giebelhaus

The weight room at the University of Nebraska is legendary in college football circles. In the 1970s and ’80s it was the training program developed by Boyd Eppley that helped produce the monster players.
Bowling coach Bill Straub had eyed the program for years and finally asked Eppley if he would develop a program for the bowling squad. Eppley designed a workout regime for bowlers, a program Straub and his national championship men’s and women’s teams still employ today.
The key exercise is the squat. When you bowl, you are always on your feet. You have to have balance, power, grace, agility and mobility all at the same time. Squats help bowlers avoid knee problems and develop the synergistic muscles that support the joints.
Eppley also is a strong believer in the “Hang Snatch” which is one motion that starts with the bar at your knees and you snatch it up and over your head. You use your whole body.
Here is the “Heavy Workout” suggested by the UNL coaching staff during the bowling season:
n 12-15 minutes of cardiovascular exercise prior to lifting.
n 4 sets of squats (10 reps, 8 reps, 6 reps, 4 reps) increase weight each rep set.
n 2 sets of lunges.
n 4 sets of hang snatch — same reps as squats.
n Bench press (2 sets of 10 reps).
n Biceps (arm curls) — 2 sets of 10 reps.
n Triceps (2 sets of 10 reps).
n Bent over shoulder raise (2 sets of 10 reps).
The above workout is to be done once per week during the season and twice per weak in the off season. There is also a suggested “light workout,” which includes walking, biking, jogging and swimming. As you can see, becoming a fine-tuned athletic bowler takes some work. Some may compare it to the “bridge run” if you are a tennis coach.

Kind of feeling this one! Bowling Cruelty Video

Recently google ads suspended my account because of the support from my fans. It was across the board on three websites www.eastcoastsurfer.com , www.alltenback.com and this blog. This all went down this past weekend when google decided they weren't going to pay me. Hell they might even take away my blogger account as well seeing I am posting this.

After doing some research I found if you make more than 4% more money than you did last month they think you are scamming them. I am using another ad company now but still not getting the money that was owed to me that I was counting on hurts and really will set me back. Just a warning to anyone that uses google adsence. Keep a constant flow of clicks and supports to your website.

this video sums up my feelings today.

Pete Weber "Best Tip" video. Picking up Spares especially 10 pins!

Pete Weber is one of my top 10 favorite bowlers to watch on the PBA Tour

In this video Pete shows us the importance of picking up all your spares. Especially those pestky 10 pin spares. Definately one of those parts of my game I need to improve on.

I will watch this over and over in my brain till it finally sinks in. (if that is possible)

Well it kinda did! I only missed 1 - 10 pin spare last night and the week before that I missed 6 of them. Last week I bowled 629 scratch this week 646. So spares help.

PBA World Series of Bowling Preview: CONFIDENCE

Bowl with Confidence. A great PBA video a friend posted on FB.

My Favorite quote was from Michael Haugen Jr. where he says "all ten down" so close to saying "all ten back. We will have to work on that one Mike.

Great video must watch for any fan of bowling and the PBA.

I guess this is what they mean by being in the "zone". Hopefully I will have that feeling soon.
