Hey, thanks for the reply and the info on Barishnikov. I did a quick search on him & shot put technique & the invention of spinning. A few articles credit Barishnikov, or rather his coach, & a few others say Oldfield independently & simultaneously invented it. I'm not a putter, but I think this is interesting & I'd love to see a video of the two men talking about it. I also learned that gliding only dates to '51. Cheers
@deezynar spinning shot put was not started by brian oldfield, it was started by aleksandr barishnakov of russia, however brian oldfield was the first one to start using it in america
Dallas Long was also an exceptional strongman with long arms. is credited witha standing press of 320 for reps, pressing a pair of 160 pound dumbbells in each hand for 3 reps and bench pressing 500.
See Big Arthur Rowe throwing pit tub axles about on my upload 'The 100th Hospital Sing'

Ahhh. The Golden Age. . .
Where men were men.
Shorts were short.
And America dominated the throws.

TeamDiscus, Thanks for the feedback. It seemed like a logical guess, since all the puters in the video are old school chuckers.
