Quick Tip: Don't Keep it Simple
How often are we told that cricket is a simple game?

But spin also need a lot of time bowling spin, which leaves you with the gym as a secondary concern. You want to get in, get it done and get out so you can go back to bowling.
You want as much as you can get in as little time as possible.
