Great video. I thought I saw you out throwing a couple times over the summer. That's my house in the background 😂

Here because track season got cancelled last year and I lost any skill I had haha

Love it thanks , even through I'm a glider it's good to have knowledge about rotation

I know I’m a little late to the party but I’ve watched a couple of your videos and you give really good advice! Our team didn’t have a coach for throwing this year and I’m heading to regional competition tomorrow (somehow) I just want to say thank you for everything!

After many years of the glide, I just started with the rotation technique, very helpful vid, thanks !

Just now learning how to spin after 5 years of gliding this helped a lot thank you

I just watched the full tutorial on how to throw the shotput and led me here. Very informative video, really appreciate it 😊 Hope I can do the full rotation soon

Thanks man! This video helped me a lot. I was a powerlifter who transitioned into weight lifting, now I'm transitioning into shot put. This video really helped me nail the rotation

The extra part at the end is a very helpful addition as it helps to see it is full motion and add ur flare.

Well demonstrated coach..

What shoes do you have

Never heard of spinning shot before, I typically just glide

Coach this a great way to teach the spin to the beginners!

Thank you John for another incredibly informative video. I will make sure that all of my throwers in Thrower Strong Training watch, study, and drill this video. I really hate that we missed your Virginia session. Hopefully you and your coach can make an appearance sometime in the future. Maybe we can get you down for the throwers only polar bear shot put throwdown in January.

Is there any benefit to getting as low as possible as long as you're rigid to create more drive at the launch. Are you low as possible or low as comfortable; or could you go lower?

By far the best explanation of the spin that I've seen. Thank you.

This helped a lot as a 14 yr old and I just wanna get better at discus and shot I will defo be watching your discus videos too

Thank you for this. I learned this while In track practice

Interesting and very explanatory video, perfect to put it into practice!

Can you make a video explaining a combination of gym and training, I have to teach myself this sport because nobody can help me get better around my country

I just have one question, if anyone ever see this. Isn't stepping outside of the ring a scratch/failed attempt? I just need clarification because I plan on using this method to go to the Arizona state finals. If anyone would reach out, that'd be lifesaving!

Used your video to show the mrs shot put. Looks like you stepped out a few times lol

47 year old but i try

Damn it, im so bad at the glide that im learing to rotate

Bro i did 7 meters and i thought it was fine

Hey, this might seem weird but I’m having serious trouble with the glide. I’m able to do the spin and basic throw, but my coach is giving me the shit for my glide. Any pointers.

I try sir this technique

Are u an national player

I broke my leg trying this

Great video! I appreciate you sharing your knowledge in this simple step by step format!

Very nice 👌

Thanks bro

They do this in the Olympics except by wind-up longer to throw the Hammer

...Excellent breakdown. Can you make shot-put Tank Tops and Shotput long sleeve t -shirts? I am ready to order if you do! Thanks

Great 4 step approach. Moving my son from Glide to Rotation. Best I’ve seen. Bula

Senior in HS never have thrown im doing the power throw and i tried glide but cant throw it as far, I hopeing this helps as I have district next week thanks!

Thank u for video

Thanks this helped me a lot

Whats your PR for shot?

What are the benefits of taping your hands together, as you have in the video. Does it help flick the shot, or is it there to give your throw more strength?

I like sir shot put video

No good coaching in India

Thanks for the help man!

Thanks sir🙏🏻

Very interesting

Throw shot in comp with us

great vid

Thanks it helps me alot

It great 😊 !

👍

Alright! You gonna mess around and qualify for shot when you arent even trying to! 😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆

I personally think that if you put a more linear intent once you hit that South African position, you’ll hit those positions a lot better, and you’ll be more powerful

I've gotten the best advice from this channel as someone who just started competing in shot put a few weeks ago as a "senior" (50+). I completely understand why the video had to be shot this way. With one camera, it seems like the best choice. I think it would have also helped if there could have been a few overhead shots. At times it became a little difficult to figure out the body positioning at the end of each of the steps, going into the next, and to nail down the orientation of the circle.
