[X150RiderX]

would you possibly be able to provide me with a complete work out plan?> maybe one that someone made for you or somthing? i have one season of track left and i realy really want to get good and go to college with it. watching these videos because all the heart and effort you put into everything is so motivating. Please get back to me. Thanks!

When your doing weight training What do you mostly focus on?

Chest and shoulders?

Im having troubles pulling through at the end of my throw, do you have any pointers?

and lastly what are some drills to work on technique?

Thanks so much

[lilnugizaking]

what's the best muscle group to work out cause i'm a junior in high school and only throw 120

[Gamerhackz]

This is truly inspirational man, keep posting vids please! i have learned a lot just from watching your vids, especially in the technique category.

[70nico70]

[Haldfar]

Great videos, i like them! Can you add more trainvideos in this year?

[BSG24fan]

Thanks for the vids. Its really inspiring.

[weasel348]

Love the videos. Keep us posted how you do. I'm a senior I threw 122 last year (1.6kg) , but my power-lifting totals have soared since then I'm hoping to break into 150 range and make some D3 or D2 Oklahoma team.

very inspirational.

[Maatttt0]

Good luck!

[onusdirty]

you need to add your story to this stuff man... let all these clowns know you're so good cuz you broke your back then worked as hard as anyone possibly can

[geoffgetts200]

@onusdirty lol ya and how you started out as a hurdler!

[therealdishen]

Oh, and you also made me want to rock a headband. I couldn't pull it off.

[therealdishen]

You are probably one of my biggest inspirations to give discus as much effort as I shot put. Your awesome.

[dstoll6815]

this guy is sick. i threw at the same meet he did late march of this past season. so good and so fast. good luck on your quest to be an olympian

[CCDHS72]

[johnbowman70]

[aceofspades10109]

hey what did you throw when you were 15, and how about when you were a senior in hs?

[johnbowman70]

I threw 135' with the 1.6 kilo discus when I was 15 and when I was a senior in high school I threw the discus 166' with the 1.6 kilo discus

[aceofspades10109]

wow you improved a huge bunch moving up to the 2k, was that off of strength or technique?

[johnbowman70]

I gained 45 pounds in college and I have improved my technique 10 fold!!!

[tylerneihoff]

Amazing inspiration, we have the same goals, Im About to be a freshman and Im throwing in the high 130s and low 140s (14 years) I cant wait for weight training, Id love to throw along side you in the olympics, with Gerd Kanter too xD Please write back

[faxbit1234]

@johnbowman70 what did you throw when you were in 8th grade?

[yodaman34]

I dig your videos bud. I got 2 questions. What the name of this song? And when you are lifting just on the side of the track is that for video purposes or is that where you always lift, cause when you benched it looked like the 2 guys just handed you the bar, was curious about that

[jokerjoe110]

the song is by yellowcard its called my only one i believe but im positive its by yellowcard

[CCDHS72]

yea its by yellowcard- only one

[johnbowman70]

Yea, we normally lift on the side of the track. The weight room at IWU is insufficient, so we made our own out at the track... it works well as long as there are enough people around to help

[sharpshooter40]

I can always count on your videos to be nothing short of amazing, I'm training myself right now to throw for a college and I cant wait to make it on

[chrismacaus]

Absolutely love your videos, very inspiring. I'm a thrower from florida heading to a small D3 school to throw next year. Best wishes this coming year.

[onusdirty]

[manelitosantos]
