Thread: How to build arm strength?

    Strangely, I never feel pain when bowling, just fatigue after about 5-6 games and some soreness the next day if bowl 10+ games (which is way too many.) I hate quitting with a bad score, so I tend to keep bowling after I should have stopped. My local center has unlimited bowling for $8 on Saturday, which is nice but makes it hard to stop. So that much is probably not good, but an extra 2-3 games is helpful.

    I've been doing pushups and lots of reps with barbells to tone my arms. I've also been doing yoga followed by jogging or 20 minutes on the stair stepper. 5 days a week.

    I've only been doing this routine for a month but its made a drastic improvement in my game.

    I also agree with what everyone has said about practice. When I started back on a league 2 years ago...I'd go in on Saturday and crank out 6 games in about an hour. Felt like I was going to keel over afterwards...but I built up endurance quick.

    If you are able to do pull ups on the roman ring or just a bar and able to pull up your own weight sure to build arm strength, but continue practice.

    Forearm Wrist Curls are a good exercise.

    I don't think you really need to do weights but some free hand does not hurt, but regular practice is a must.
