leg spin bowling/spin bowling in general

im a leg spin bowler, but i havnt got any practice until january now, well im gonna get down the nets for a hour 2 times a month with my mate, but the main question i want to know the answer to is:

spinners need alot of drive when delivering the ball/to vary pace, what exersises can i do to make me faster ? ive started doing press ups today, i done 30 in the morning, 30 in the afternoon and 30 before i went to bed, well just done the extra 5 to get it up to 100 ;) lol

should i just do 50 - 60 press ups maximum per day ?

could i hurt my body by doing 100 a day ?

im 16 by the way

At 16 i'd say intoduce the wieghts/gym, nothing too extensive, as your muscles are still growing, maybe a 1hr session twice a week.

Swimming is an amazing help, specially swimming without the aid of your arms, and if you have access to a wave pool, its both fun to try to move forward using just your arms, plus the muscles become stronger.

If you like i can put together a kind of weekly plan for you, obviously i'd ask you a few questions via PM so i can get a general idea, if you want, just PM me if you're interested :)

By the way im a left arm leggie (Chinamen bowler) so i know what im on about.....i hope :laugh:
