Discus Instructional Video

[Oreo493]

Great video! I'm throwing 125 this is my second year throwing.

[AthleticsGirl98]

This sounds so ad but I'm a 13 year old girl (Very small) and can only throw 13.72! I think that's good for me though considering I've never had training or taken discus seriously :)

[kirtansapra]

[longtyler015]

[JamesThrowing]

@noswagX You'll soon realise it is what you throw with olympic weight 2kg discus matters most.

[sweettartist]

[superACHOOO]

@sweettartist I'm sure.



[BigGriz52]

@sweettartist yeah my ass high speed

[1972chryslerconquer]

ONLY Throwing 117 FEET... WOW you are good! I am in 8th Grade and I can throw only about 80 Feet... Yes, I do think you can approve. :)

[HajiFofana1]

Yea u right

[MrDrewber42]

This video was shot in Bloomington IN with Randy Heisler, he is a great coach and thrower, a great guy to learn from

[Blazeoman]

kk im in 8th grade and im only throwing 117. anything u think i can improve on?

[MrStryperfan]

i did discus in middle school but idk bout high school becuase all the other guys are bigger and stronger

[gettsomeify]

@MrStryperfan it doesn't matter about what size you are for example there is one kid who is 6 foot and 220 pounds(slim and skinny) and another kid who like like 5.3 and 200 and the slim and skinny kid throws farther than the strong and short kid.so atleast try it your freshman year and see what you think about it and if u dont like if finish out the year and dont do it next ur sophomore but remember just throw at least 4 days a week in the summer and make changes for the better.

[MrStryperfan]

@gettsomeify thanks ya i did it and my coatch said i have a good relase so il try to stick to it

[gettsomeify]

@MrStryperfan okay good! good luck with the rest of your season

[Bonecrushah]

do you have the javelin instructional video as well?

[GioAndrei1]

My record is 23. somthng. a 10th grade student. My technique is the "South african" Will it improve if i will change it to that technique? my throw's are kinda' weak though.. :/ HELP!!

[Biohazard7123]

@GioAndrei1 If your only throwing 23ft for a south african you might just want to improve on your power throw then move onto the South African, then the full spin

[GioAndrei1]

@Biohazard7123 Well... Okay Dude. Thanks anyway! Godbless!

[hvardon]

Great discus instructional - Can anyone help me understand what he means at about 2mins 14 secs when he says " at release the path of the discus must be parallel to the path of the body" Thanks

[aeiou99999]

@hvardon if you want the velocity of the body driving to the front of the circle to fully help your throw, your body must be moving along the same line or path of the discus upon release. If those paths cross, you are only getting a partial benefit from your body motion. Vectors of force in physics...

[JorgeThrowerBass]

nice video, thank u for explain the fisrt turn..... now i can throw more

[keckvan66]

u see how hard it is to rotate the right foot after landing...

[vatonaught]

Some of the best instruction available thanks.

[kmac56]

[TheeMatthewWebster]
