Even when things are “normal” and we’re bowling league every week it’s a good idea to get some other exercise in. With not bowling for months it’s even more important.
My normal routine for a number of years has been to do a series of Yoga stretches at least every other day. Probably spend 15 minutes or so. I also have an Eileen’s Bowling Buddy Power Trainer which I use almost every day, at least ten swings with each arm, up to twenty. Since COVID 19 my wife and I have tried to go for a walk every day. We tend to alternate between a short 15-20 minute walk and go up to 40-45 minutes for the longer ones.
With arthritic knees it might be wise to avoid long walks on hard surfaces. Water aerobics would be good if you have access to a pool and cycling is also less stressful for the knees with the benefit of building up the leg muscles.
