@@daberrlhardt7113 It's important to know that everyone's relative angle positions between their joints are different. The angle positions between shoulder, elbow, and wrist are different for every player but you should be able to do the pulls without that happening. Without seeing exactly what's going on I think if the carabiner is hitting your wrist it could be a couple things. Sometimes it means you may be rounding just a bit and if that's the case answer #1 below is critical. 1. On your reachback (disc golf should be call it "reachaway") make sure you push the disc away from your body so it's just a bit farther or equal distance in front of you than your front foot's toes. Then pull directly toward your toes. 2. If the above doesn't help, try holding the disc in different positions. For example, because the disc can rotate you can grab it at 12:00 or 9:00 or 6:00. Try different positions until it doesn't hit your wrist. 3. As you go through the motion you can not go all the way to the very end. One thing about resistance band training is that it almost completely mimics the motion but it doesn't have to on every workout. Because resistance bands use exaggerated movements to train the activated muscles it's important when doing the Speed workout to think of an actual throw, but knowing you may not be able to extend all the way to the release point. Even if you don't go as far to the end of your pull you'll still be training speed and line. The other workouts can be more focused on technique and mechanics. Dave Feldberg shows a rep that he likes to do where he holds the disc almost to the release point and does extensions just with his wrist. That would make up for not going all the way through in the speed workout.
Yes this! My wrist has a knot in it just from the first set. It does NOT hit my chest. It hits squarely in the middle of my wrist, which is highly dangerous and probably should come with some kind of disclaimer to be honest.
Seems like a great training tool. Might have to pick one up.
I'm digging this thing, but the attachment mechanism smacks my wrist when doing this drill :(
Same...hurts like a bitch
Just tried this, and the carabiner destroyed my wrist. Seems like a really bad design flaw

It needs a pad on the biner for sure. This is dangerous
Can you explain how to do this and not hit you wrist with the carabiner?

Is the band on the same line as the target line? Hard to tell from this angle
volforlife17 I don’t think so but the drill is about resistance.
