Some coaches have said that you need to slide towards your target and that can help.
But like I say, it's a combination of being out of shape, age, overweight, a muscle mass and bone density issue.
I just need to eat better, exercise more, strengthen muscle and tendons.
Get back into lifting weights to build up bone density.
This is a very common problem for bowlers.
And a very common problem for bowlers who took 15 years off and got fat.
Almost every account that I have read about claimed that when they lost weight and got in shape the leg/knee pain went away.
All my fat is located in my midsection which makes a difference, I think.
I used to play a lot of golf as well till about 10 years ago.
I would get massive middle back pain so I gave it up.
I also gave up hoops, jogging, softball, racquetball, tennis and flag football at about the same time period.
I just got fat and lazy... end of story.
I just need to get back into the gym.
Go swimming.
Get back into the rowing machine.
Cardio and Lifting Weights.
Probably never make it though as I don't have the same determination as past years.
What you need to do is get off the comp train. Fuck all this casino shit food. I don't care how nice the place supposedly is. They all use shitty oils and all kinds of other garbage. I ditched it all completely April 2nd at 258 pounds. I am 221 today at 6'-2". So still some to go. Eat whole foods, no meat, no dairy, no oil as much as you want. Exercise additionally or not.
But exercise obviously helps. Your ailments are from poor gut health from years of shitty casino food. Research a company called Viome. Take their health intelligence test, follow their recommended foods based on your results and subscribe to get the custom made probiotics and prebiotics to fix your rekt gut.
Within 30 days of implementing this you will literally feel 20 years younger and it only keeps getting better.
