QUICK TIP FRIDAY

Attack, Attack Attack..

In the rotational Shot Put you must drive hard and fast into the middle of the ring. If you don’t attack and sprint you lose a lot of distance. Understanding the details of how to angle the center of mass into a real sprint angle is critical for big time throws. In the shot put the spin is faster and tighter because the ring is smaller than the discus..

Don’t Turn around and enter the middle. Turn and attack the middle. if you fail to set up the sprint axis first you wont do it. Add Speed.

If you can’t you can’t add speed, you’re off balance and you are getting feedback regarding your Throwing Chain Reaction.
