Do Fast Bowlers Need to be Strong?

Do Fast Bowlers Need to be Strong?

There is a myth that getting strong, will make you big and bulky meaning you won't be as quick a bowler. Now, if you train to be a bodybuilder this could be the case. But at Cricfit, we are training for cricket so there is no danger of that. Strap in and watch this video where we explain why as a fast bowler, strength should be your friend instead of your enemy.

Sam Hunt

Director

Sam started Cricfit in March 2020 just as lockdown began with the simple goal of educating Cricketers about the physical side of the game. Sam became a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (NSCA CSCS) in June 2021 & ECB Core Coach with a Sport & Exercise Science undergraduate & Sport Business Management Masters degree behind him. Having played Cricket to a high level during his youth and still to a premier league club standard, Cricfit is the combination of his two main passions in life, Cricket & fitness.
