Just some constructive criticism: You might want to work on your quickness across the ring. You have the size and strength part down, but a lot of shotputting is how fast you can rocket into that power position. I'm a 5'10 210 lb thrower. Fairly small. Definitely not your size. I bench around 325 lbs, and squat about 500 lb. Not big weight. My PR is 45'1" with glide. I'm telling you this because everyone tells me I would be throwing 30 feet if I werent so quick across the ring, its important.

dude you bench 325 you should get throwin it past that....even thou yer that qucik across the ring..thers a kid whose 185, and benchest mayb 225, but throws 65 sme feet.

[MrgotPump]

today i side threw a 42", im like WTF NOW WAY!!!! then i realized im using an 8lb shotput

[prsguiatplayer]

i throw 19 metres just muscling it, i have bad form also.

if i had the speed, i'd be throwing a lot better.

im 18, bench 335, weight 206

[stuart7337]

@PewPewLazerViking your right but as 6'2 and 200 at finals for frosh i thru 48 just muscling it not even glide or spin and im only benching like 200

[xXDAMEDXx]

@revshadows7 Ya and how is that small if i could squat and bench that much i would be throwing 55????

[jmaxwell98]

I'm 12 and my best is 43' 7'' with a 4 kg shot

[revshadows7]

@PewPewLazerViking hahaha i loved how you said "not big weight" thats funny cuz like your sort of downplaying it making it seem like you could do more its funny its funny i shit my pants literally laughing and also made urine

[thunderg111]

@DWah40 yea im with you man. my max bench this year was only 260 but i threw 56. speed is a big factor. but bench doesnt matter much at all. its more about legs and hip power.
