The point of bowling isn't to reach the highest ball velocity. Or is it?

It's not strength that helps. Bowling was just a sport developed for fat, beer drinkers. Congrats Jake.

I probably dented the steering wheel from bashing it so hard. PS. I'm sorry for your loss. (And mine.) Yes I'm back and not dead from New Orleans (again). I will be at the gym later today for deadlifts. Here is a picture of me before things started spiraling downhill on Saturday.

Cardio day today. First time it's been dry for a few days in a row around here; so I went to the park to do some hill sprints. That mean two rounds of 10 hill sprints, and I did 15 pushups after each sprint. Took about 3-4 minutes of rest inbetween sets.
