Shot Put and Discus Throws Training
The Nation’s #1 Throws Club Located in Phoenix AZ
Arete Throws Nation is the leading Shot Put and Discus Throws Club in the USA. Each year, ATN produces consistent and measurable results for throwers in shot put, glide shot, and discus throws.
With over 132+ Championship titles since 2013, and just as many Championship medalists in League, Division, State and National competitions…
… the ATN Shot Put and Discus Throws Club of Phoenix is where you need to be if you want to truly THROW FAR!
PRACTICE DOESN’T MAKE PERFECT…
PERFECT PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT.
Most noteworthy, all throwers in the ATN program are developed and coached using the Throwing Chain Reaction™ system, which was created by founder, head coach, and “technique obsessed”, Coach Erik Johnson.
The TCR™ system has developed many throwers to promising collegiate careers in some of the most sought out Universities in the country, and consequently, many post collegiate throwers to National & Olympic level Championship meets, and Master throwers to dominate in their age groups.
IF YOU WANT TO BE A CHAMPION
THEN YOU HAVE TO TRAIN LIKE A CHAMPION
In order to develop into an elite thrower, there are simply no shortcuts…
… hence, training frequency & intensity are a must for one to ACHIEVE ARETE!
It should go without saying that the more time and energy invested, the better and more dramatic the results.
Since each athlete is a unique combination of talent and athleticism, results will depend on the 5 Intangibles of Throwing Success:
- Genetics
- Work Ethic
- Body Awareness & Structural impact on learning.
- Previous instruction and current technical habits
- Training Frequency- how many hours the athlete puts in will directly impact the results.
These 5 variables result in a different rate of success for each thrower in the TCR™ program.

The ATN CLUB PROGRAM is a frequency based program for throwers serious about making massive improvements in a matter of 3-5 months. This program is based on a target number of hours each week and target total for each month, therefore, this program has a flat fee based on the target hours.
ATN programs are designed according to the annual training cycle for throwing: Off-Season, Pre-season, In-season, Post-season, and Championship cycle. The elite level of throws coaching and weight training are created to seamlessly transition high school athletes to a D1 collegiate level athletic training program- AND WE HAVE A REPUTATION OF DELIVERING JUST THAT!
I’m Coach Erik Johnson, and I thought I’d take a moment to tell you a little about myself.
I started competing in Track and Field at 10yrs old. It was field day Aire Libre Middle School in Phoenix, AZ and I had to run in a race. As I ran, a bigger and faster kid, pushed me down and I fell. Determined to kick this kid’s a$$, I got up and ran as fast as my legs could carry me and won the race! (I believe there were a few choice words spoken on the winner’s block between him and me)
A woman, by the name of Illene Molinski, saw my grit on the track and approached my father and me. She suggested I join a track and field club her husband ran called- Paradise Valley Athletic Track Club- Go PVAC! read more…
RESULTS
ATN has over 132+ Championship Titles (…and growing). Through our College Prep throws training, we have coached several talented athletes to achieve marks that have landed them scholarships to some of the most sought after Universities in the country!
ATN COACHES
All ATN coaches go through an evaluation process and then are personally trained by Coach Erik Johnson through an 8 week ATN Coach Certification Course. We take the future of each athlete that joins Arete seriously, and we will never compromise our high standards….ever!
SUPPORT
Each athlete that joins ATN is coached as an individual, and not a number! We assess and analyze each thrower’s strength and ability levels and design a program specifically structured to achieve the goals desired. Coach Johnson is always available to any thrower’s -and parents of the athlete- questions concerning training, requirements for a college entry, pro level programs, or master level program design.
IT TAKES GRIT
ATN is a no-fluff throws coaching program. Everything we do is about getting our athletes to be the best. From the weight room to the ring, ATN throws training program is 100% designed and structured for throwers; from an elite level thrower who’s been there! The Throwing Chain Reaction™ system is NOT for everyone! If you want to just “get by”, you are at the wrong place. You gotta LOVE THE GRIND in the weight room, in the ring, and especially at practice….. to be the best takes hard work, perseverance, and repetition!
