Have you ever seen how strong, powerful and coordinated Gymnasts are? In this respect they are using skills that would be a great asset on the cricket field.

That's why my interest perked up when Scott at Straighttothebar suggested cricketers, especially bowlers, would benefit from ring training.

After all, powerful shoulders and back combined with precision balance and timing would transfer well to the art of bowling, right?

On top of this, rings are a very tough workout. This means you would be much fitter than everyone else on the field giving you a major advantage (and also not a solution for beginners).

So, if you can get access to rings at a gym (or even buy your own for a home gym) then add ring training to your workout.
