Speed bowling.

Leave it to turn a relaxing sport like bowling into a hardcore cardio workout.

Not too long ago a bowled 13 games in a little over an hour which is unheard of in the world of bowling. It's supposed to be a game of skill and comfort, but when I'm done, I'm sweating like a just ran a marathon and when I wake up the next morning I'm as sore as I am when I work out at the gym.

Obviously, unlike most people who bowl, I don't sit around and chug a couple of beers or scarf down some nachos in between frames, nope... for me it's none stop bowling. It's probably more of a HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) type of workout where you exercise intensely for a certain amount of time and then rest before doing it all over again.
I get horrified looks from the fatty fat bowlers as they scarf down their hot dogs, but I don't care. I take great pride and satisfaction that in the time that it takes them to finish one game, I've already finished four.

Could it be that I'm on the verge of discovering the next fitness craze of speed bowling?? Why the hell not?!!
