Patient-Friendly Explanation

Bowling involves walking, bending and repeated arm movement over an hour or two. It burns far fewer calories than running, but it is easy to keep up, social and gentle on the joints. For people who dislike gyms, it is a realistic way to add weekly activity.

Clinical Definition

Recreational bowling expends roughly three to four METs, contributing around 150 to 250 kilocalories per session in an average adult while improving coordination and trunk stability. The benefit comes mainly from total weekly activity and long-term adherence rather than exercise intensity, and social engagement independently supports weight maintenance.

Why It Matters

Activity you keep doing beats intense exercise you stop after a few weeks. NuLifeCare Singapore helps patients find enjoyable movement that fits their joints, schedule and social life.
