Is it Friday already?
Man the week went by fast. Be sure to take a moment for our Veterans.
My dad is Vietnam Vet and served in the early years before it got really bad. Mrs Arete’s Grandfather- who is 93 yrs young- was a Naval Officer during WW2 and sailed LST ships to the shores. He has some very amazing and moving stories about his experiences while being in South Pacific.
We thank them, and all our military past and present for their service to the nation!
Time for QTF- Quick Tip Friday:
Today, we will talk about a super quick and important technical game changing tip in Pillar 1 & 2 of the TCR™ system.
One to the hardest things to teach in Pillar 1 is the Shift & Turn, which will properly set up Pillar 2, and this leads to the Drop into Pillar 3 : Drop and Apply Speed.
…and to do this correctly, you need to hit your Pillar 1 & 2 mechanics correctly.
So, the official Quick Tip is knees apart… Knees Apart…. KNEES APART.
Keep the Knees apart!
In pillar 1 and 2 of the Throwing Chain reaction™ system…you must keep the knees apart as you shift left and move around the axis to set up Pillar 3: Maximum Speed. (or right if you are a lefty)
This takes time to learn, and it’s what the best throwers in the world have in common.
Most young throwers turn the sweep leg with the sprint leg and this creates too much rotation and that means less distance.
Keep the knees apart!
Have a great weekend.
