What fitness routine should a fast bowler follow in India?
I'm a 20-year-old medium-fast bowler from Jaipur trying to increase my pace from 125 kmph to 135+ kmph. I bowl 4-5 overs per match in local club tournaments. My coach says I need to improve my core strength and bowling-specific fitness. Currently I just run 3-4 km and do some push-ups before net sessions. What specific exercises should I be doing? Are gym workouts helpful for fast bowlers or do they make you stiff?
