Shot put/Discus - Improving Distance
Former Member
Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
On friday I'm doing this atheltic thing for the whole day with my school, I've chosen to do Shot put or Discus (Think I'm doing Shotput though)
Is there any tips/advice anyone can give me to improve my distance?
I went to athletics club today to practice my throwing and because I'm year 10 I'm throwing the heavy one (year 9 boys/year 10 girls weight)
I'm not that strong so I'm at a bit of disadvantage, but any way to improve? Any suggestions will be appreciated
Thanks in advanced.:wave:

If you're not very strong, why are they making you throw a heavy object? Seems silly.
See if you can get some help from someone who knows what they're doing, and can help you to adjust your position etc.
Good luck x
Ah, the one where you wipe out half the crowd if you get it wrong.
But thanks for the tips!
