@@youcontrolfreakssuckit3784 for me I had to think about getting it turning before it touched the ground. Once you land it's hard to get it moving from a stand still. Also I had to think about turning the knee along with the foot like it was one unit. Push the knee in and the heel around together.
Wow having a bent knee through the finish is so different compared to what i was taught and what i think i see it mainly in disc throwers but it looks like shot throwers extend at the finish, no?
Actually, we have found and teach both events to throw with bent knees. Watch Dacres in discus or Crouser in shot put. Both athletes actually throw with a bent knee. Thanks for the interest! What other topics would you like us to cover in future videos?
Throws University i was talking about the shorter guys like kovaks and walsh they throw with extended legs i think, do you teach to push with the legs or not? i think another topic would be nutrition, most throwers think they can eat anything when that isn’t the case.
In The discus and rotational is it really plantar flexion of the ankle, or is it that shin is not perpendicular to the ground. Because how do we go from a dorsiflex sweep, to a plantar flexed strike in the middle? I don't think we really do. We don't want to be on our tiptoes in the middle. Just kind of thinking out loud. Of course we want our heel off the ground but I think that's because our leg is bent and our shin is at somewhere around a 75° angle to the ground.
I’m having an issue, when I throw just my arms I’m constantly hitting 102ft. When I try to make my lower body work I’m only hitting lower 90. Do you have any idea why that’s happening?

so many coaches always say "just turn it" but its not that easy. It took me years to really figure it out.
no doubt. it's way harder than it sounds. Hopefully this video helps you understand it better. thanks and throw far!
So what conclusion did you come to that made It click in your mind.

I am struggling on that point. Will try these 3 points. 👍👍
Awesome!
Topic ... pre competition prep. Start at 4 days out ... work up to event day, Maybe add event day prep too.
