 What's up guys it's Coach Johnson we're back hopefully you've enjoyed the last few weeks we've gone through the discus rotational shot this week we're going to be dealing with the glide so we're going to give you a bunch of different tips give you show you some clips out of our training videos that are just diving you get a real sense of what we're doing and providing how we're communicating again it's just pieces of it you'd like to see the real thing click the link below join everything's recorded up for you so you can catch up and we'd hope to see you on some live training so check it out you notice how it doesn't wind back it pulls back I'm on this because we're going to bring it over you're going to see this and then you're going to be seeing me I'm going to be able to kind of reach over at this point and then I'm going to come through what's up guys it's coach Johnson and we are diving into the glide now one of the things we've done we talked about in the intro and what we've talked about in the previous weeks leading up to this if you haven't done the discus of the rotational shot I'm going to do my best to make it sound like you've never heard any of this information but we've gone through our live training and we addressed our pillar drills right so we learned how the one two three four sequence of setting up the chain reaction now you notice we talk about pre blocks we do pre blocks in the rotational throws and we really focus on more of an up and over in the glide because it's we have to drive that hip all the way through and over what we'll be doing is going through that we're going to start out just like we did with our discus and our rotational shot we're going to be focusing on the glide today and again the glide is going to be that block we have a higher angle of release we're going to be talking about how we open the block arm differently and how we pull down how we want to try to stay on that line and feel that extension so we're getting that nice high up delivery so when we go to our kneeling throws and again i'm going to get my trusty towel and i'm going to set up and we're going to set up and i'm going to throw slightly this direction because of my camera but what we want to be paying attention to is we set alignment and then we scale and separate so we create separation differently in the glide a lot of times just kids keep their shoulders and hips together but if you notice your elite throwers they're all going to get the shoulder again back behind the hip that's always the key to the throw the throwing motions are hip ahead create that big stretch strike now remember with this with the glide the elbow tends to be a little bit in a lower position more under the chin rotational throwers are more up here so when we scale we set the alignment we get that hand position nice and right so again remember we're holding it up on the knuckles so we get that that thumb inside and so as we bring it in and we get it under the chin we're going to be here we scale and separate and then what we're going to do is we're going to come up right so with a rotational throw we're winding the left side with the shot we are actually kind of reaching out over but we're pulling this back you notice how it doesn't wind back it pulls back i'm on this because i'm going to have this opening action so with a kneeling throw again we can't really go back as far so we're feeling that motion again so you're going to notice how i'm up we're going to call what we call our delivery T and then we're going to pull down so we're going to be pulling more this way that being said we're focusing on up and overs now up and overs for the glide we want to drive and we want to drive up over the tow board a lot of gliders have a hard time coming through in their reverse so once they actually start to glide they can't get that traditional glide finish now remember this is another thing we're not going to be going through the reverse in this video but when we talk about our stand throw how it's different than the rotational shot so the idea with the up and over is we're driving the hip in a linear line to the tow board right and so by teaching you the up and over we're going to be really conscious of kind of getting in that angle and kind of like a pre block we're going to be setting already down and this is going to be in the blocking position but notice how i have a double bent leg you understand you got to keep this bent so i'm here so when i pull up here and i block i'm going to be able to push and climb up on top of that block leg and feel that motion of coming over so i'm going to set the chain reaction we're going to go set the alignment okay we're going to scale and separate we're going to bring it over you're going to see this and then you're going to be seeing me boom i'm kind of up and over this is going to be our final video for today in your throw session okay so here we go what we're going to do is again we're going to put our our clock on the 12 to 6 this way because i'm throwing in this direction so you're going to see me again set up the alignment i'm going to scale separate get it here and what i'm going to do is i'm going to be able to kind of reach over at this point and then i'm going to come through right you're going to see me kind of work that way what we're going to be focusing on is as we come down we're going to be feeling this position this kind of open now i'm going to boom you're going to see that kind of motion into the throw what you're going to find is it's going to be uncomfortable so what we're going to start with is a non-reverse so that we feel this type of position we're going to feel this and we're going to push here right and you're going to see how that leg should want to come through because you're driving the hip through so if you feel a little bit of that that's going to be a good thing that's the first stage towards your reverse what's up guys scott johnson hopefully you've been enjoying our glide training videos so we are going to post up a few more things some new clips some technique hopefully you enjoy it
