 Are you ready to conclude our wall throw series with the discus? Here we go in this video. What we're going to talk about is putting it together, eliminating excessive movement. So how do we eliminate movement to pick up better technical patterns in the shortest period of time? We're going to talk about it in this video. So let's check it out. Hey, everybody. It's Eric Johnson. In today's video, what we're going to talk about is what we call in the throwing chain reaction system the wind up one start. So what we're going to be doing is teaching our athletes how to just be more on balance and how to come from our start position into a really nice, what we refer to as pillar two. So we have that really nice long wide sweep, great entry and we're setting up a great sprint. So one of the core things that we're going to do is we're going to lock up the hips and we're going to clean up a lot of extra motion. So even with Carson, one of the things we're working on again, if you watch the videos we're working on is orbit and you're kind of seeing how we apply our system and how there's issues in his throw that we can see as we work through this basic progression. So that progression pillar connection because what we're doing is we're always connecting each piece and we're looking at our triggers and our start and piecing it all together and putting together our full throw. One of our huge things about the throwing chain reaction is the setup is the trigger and that sets up the entire throw. So we've been working on a couple of different things and one of the things is when he winds up, we want to see his chest being a little bit more on top. So we're going to be able to create a longer entry path and he has a tendency to start almost two upright. And so he takes a path into the throw more like this. Okay. So one of the things we're going to do is like we just said, he has a tendency to put his shoulders a little too far back. We don't want them too far forward. We don't want them too far back. We want to find that sweet spot. And again, this is one of the things we refer to in our system as windows. We have windows of execution. We have these positions, different torso length, different leg length, femur length, arm length. These are the little individual things. So this is why it will always vary and there's a range per thrower. Okay. So what we're going to do is have Karsten focusing on that. He's going to keep his shoulders so he can get his shoulders moving and he's going to be more balanced. There we go. So not bad. You can see, again, he's generating some good stretch on that two kilo ball and you're going to see how it wants to come out. And if he can connect and drive his delivery side through, he's going to pull that ball a little straighter instead of over to the side. So again, these would be the things you would want to be focusing on as you're working on your wall throws to get in our reps, our technical focus, always that rhythm, not worrying about how far it's going to go. So again, what we're going to do is one of the things I'm going to point out. So as he comes in, again, we're trying to stay a little straighter. So I'm going to have him when he winds up and we keep the hips straight. We're just going to have him shift it as he winds the ball. So he's going to be able to get his hips in the ball a little bit more. So he likes Gerd Cantor. So we're going to think of his Gerd Cantor warm up. Okay. So let's do it this way. Gerd is going to be here and you're going to see him taking the taking the wine more like this, right? So he's kind of more like this and he's going to be here. So we're going to set up more like to your best Gerd Cantor imitation. Okay. There you go. So not bad. So you're going to see how he's working, working this way. And so what we got to have him do is cut back to the middle. He closed off the feet. So his hips are facing more this way. So again, this is a perfect example. We're going to be able to get in our reps and focus on our technical position. So what we're going to do is we're going to make sure that we're moving around the corner a little bit better. And what we're going to be doing is pushing his left knee around and into the throw more, and we're going to be activating the sweep a little bit more. Okay. So we're going to do that. Let's go. That was much better. So if you notice the rhythm of better rhythm, the top top, the sound of his feet and he pulled that discus from over there or the discus ball and it pulled it more into the sector. So that felt better. Right. Yes. Okay. Again, we're going to be concentrating on that nice long position. So we're active and we're a little bit more active in our pillar too. So as we shift this way, we're going to be getting that sweep leg moving and watch the position of the left arm. That was much better. So now we pulled it around so you could see how we progressively moved in. So when we're using the wall, again, we can look at that feedback. First throw, he was locked out. Second throw is a little better alignment. Third throw, he pulled it right down the pike. He's making adjustments. That's what you want to do with your wall throws. Remember, this is how your training is supposed to be. You want to have a plan. You want to practice with specific focuses. And again, one of the things we like about our system is that we're trying to teach other throwers and coaches is that so many of them aren't sure of they're still trying to learn. And then what the system allows you to do is to actually learn, apply. And you can see how we're making results right on the fly. I think for that, we'll conclude our wall throws. Remember just a great training tip and get your wall throws in, get your lots of reps, reps, reps, good reps, quality reps, make the right adjustments. Again, for our online members, we'll go through and we'll break down this stand throw, this pillar five, six, and we'll talk about some of the specific drills, pillar drills and pillar connection movements and kind of break this down in more detail.

So one big mistake people make is they try to wind.
