Show transcript
Move: being sure not to lock your elbow at any point in the throw will help to avoid a ‘bowling’ action. Move: a flick of the wrist on release supports the correct flight for the javelin to land nose first. Think: releasing the javelin one step from the foul line enables a follow through step after release to maximise power. Feel: being comfortable with managing and throwing the javelin comes from repetition and practice. Connect: acting as a coach to fix errors in technique can help others to make progress much quicker than learning alone.
