We know why you’re here.
You’re wanting to get more out of your shot put and discus throws coaching.
Learning Track and Field throwing events: Glide Shot, Rotational Shot Put & the Discus throws is hard… really hard.
It’s technical, it’s not natural, and you have to spend equal time between building up strength levels & mastering throws technique.
For throwers and parents of throwers, you find you’re on a deserted island looking for a throws coach…
But at the end of the day, throwing the shot put and the discus is awesome!
It’s a sport of warriors, gladiators and truly the OGs of the Olympic games.
So why isn’t it more popular?
Because unlike football or soccer, where you can find a congressional library of information on how to play, and there are coaches everywhere you look, throwing is more like a scavenger hunt…
Except, you have no idea what it is you’re looking for.

We offer several different options to provide you with all the throws training information & education needed to UNLOCK YOUR FULL POTENTIAL and achieve the results you want.
Whatever it is for you…
We’ve got good news for you-
This is EXACTLY why we built the Throwing Chain Reaction System®, or TCR for short.
Once inside this comprehensive track and field throws training system, you’ll be consistently getting better at training and coaching for bigger results faster than you ever thought possible.
No more spending hours searching online for some glimmer of hope video – in fact you can enjoy training or coaching again since you now know what to do and how to do it.
If you’ve been throwing for a while or coaching your whole life, you’ll gain so much more insight and start advancing quickly.
Nothing is more motivating than success.
and it all starts at Pillar 1… oh, you’ll learn all about that inside the TCR System.
SEE YOU THERE!

Most noteworthy, all throwers in the ATN® program are developed and coached using the Throwing Chain Reaction® System (TCR). Created by founder, head coach, and “technique obsessed”, Coach Erik Johnson, this 6 Pillar Training System® for Shot Put, Glide Shot and the Discus throws teaches athletes to:
The TCR® has developed many throwers across the Nation & around the world. Here in the US, hundreds of ATN coached athletes have trained hard & received 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.
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…
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.
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!
School throwing programs are far and few between across the country. That’s why at Arete Throws Nation we are dedicated to assisting each & every throws coach who’s looking for help. We’ve supported & assisted hundreds of throws coaches across the country- from middle school, to high school and the volunteer parent coach ( you are rockstars!) If it takes a village to raise a kid, then it takes a nation to develop an athlete in the throwing events- AN Arete NATION!
