Shot put technique

Move: beginning in a toe-knee-chin position will allow for the necessary transfer of weight when throwing for distance. Move: holding the shot with ‘clean palm and dirty neck’ ensures the put is legal. Think: maximal levels of force is needed to put the shot and requires rest periods to recover. Feel: self-belief is required to put the shot due to the weight of the shot and the strength required. Connect: offering encouragement to others will give them confidence to perform this challenging event.
