 What's up everybody it's Eric Johnson from Airtate Throws Nation and in today's video We are going to talk about more drills But we're going to talk about how to develop some specific strength for your throws easy ways to add it to your drills Now one of the things is we talk about inside the throwing chain reaction system We have 63 drills just on our six pillars for the discus And then we have 13 drills on drill on throwing progressions and how we tie those drills together So one of the things we want to do is we understand if we have 63 drills We're never going to be doing all 63 again The idea behind the system is that we're going to find that formula and what are going to be the 10 drills that each individual throw our needs or so or less so today We're going to talk about is developing throw specific strength So one of the things that we can do some easy things is worry with our drill bands We do have some resistance is when we have a new band we're going to have just enough resistance So just simply by pushing the band out. We're going to be developing some specific strength here Now we can use the bands also to do some basic, you know strength type movements We can do some press movements, which Carson was doing a while ago We put it around the foot and we can do some overhead pressing type stuff And we're going to stretch out that band and over time it's going to lose now What we're talking about specifically is how to move in our positions and develop strength So one of the first things we're going to do is we're going to have Carson Just do the drill with the band and we're going to have him do two bands Okay, so now two bands when he feels that this is going to be a fair amount of resistance And he's going to feel how that's going to be kind of tough And so it's just going to force him to stay long He's developing the same muscles that are going to help him improve his radius and basically Keep his orbit in the right position as he moves through the throw So we'll have him just kind of do a walk through So he's going to go in and we'll have him Yep Okay, so he's just going to kind of walk through and we'll have him here Okay, so that's basically one of the simple things Now one of the things when we do the drills There's going to be a number of other things we can do with the bands And we talk about that inside our throwing chain reaction system But the bands really are predominantly for creating Feeling and forcing athletes to move their bodies in the right positions Because you have that extra type of stretch resistance that you don't have When you're doing it with just your body weight So the next thing we're going to do is we'll have Karsten just do a simple He's going to do the same drill position But now he's going to use the weight plates, okay So now a simple way to just create specific strength Is to have him continually moving And so now he's going to do a walkthrough So what I'm going to have him do is hinge He's going to hinge and step and step into the power position So he's going to go hinge, shift, step Hinge, shift, step There you go And now he's going to step in and you're going to see him here Now remember, if you've watched one of our other drills We talked about Karsten, he's got to keep that right leg moving And so that's going to But now just by having him kind of go through this And let's just say we assign five sets of five Five sets of ten or ten sets of five Just having him hold the weight plates in this position Just simple five pound plates He's going to be developing that specific delt strength And that's going to also just adding enough resistance to his throw As he does the drill to feel positions And as he's moving through the ring So we'll have him do one more time He's going to be able to rest the shoulders a sec But now he's going to be able to hold up And you're going to notice that as he comes through Right, he's going to hinge and step Now he's going to step down and he's going to step in Do a little bit better job of rotating And we're trying to maintain that And just by continually doing this We're going to be able to work through all the positions Just enough simple resistance But this is a great way to add some specific strength So for the next thing that we can do That's really simple way that you can literally work All positions in your throw is to simply add a weight vest So here's a simple weight vest that he's going to put on Let's get him in And again, when we're adding the weight vest We're going to be able all positions we hit Legs, predominantly the lower body Is going to be getting the work But this is going to help develop Kind of strengthen those specific positions So we can get a vest that's going to range anywhere From 10 to 25 pounds And now he can move through it So this vest I think weighs roughly about 10, 12 pounds So if he wants, he can add the weight plates in with it And so go ahead So now what we're going to do is we're going to have him walk through And we're going to really work on So he'll set up his pillar one Which would be setting up his chain reaction We've got good positions We're kind of moving into a static position He's going to hinge So he's going to feel that entry side foot and hip move He's going to feel himself there He's going to do what we call as a step down drill Then he's going to push pull into the power position And again, you're going to notice That Karsten's deficit is he's never working That right all the way through So what we would do in, again, the way our system works Is we're trying to develop strength We would also notice we want to have him go to a drill And we would do a wheel repeat Or we would do another drill called Where we would do a pivot And we would have him feeling this So he's kind of feeling where he's pushing off Of the sprint leg And he's constantly feeling how this is going to open And the right leg is going to follow So let's have him go ahead and try that He's got the weight vest because he's shifting So we've got to develop some specific strength And this is a great way to take a normal drill Add a little weight vest, a little resistance And now he's going to feel how to move the lower body Ahead of the upper body Or another way of thinking about it Is having the lower body move the upper body So push, open, turn There we go Okay, so you're going to notice the one thing That we would be training him in We would start evaluating the movement As we're doing the drills And we're creating strength How does it look without the vest? So let's take off the vest All right, so he's going to do the hinge, shift, step Okay Step down He's going to feel that push pull Yes, now Did you feel easier without the weight vest? I did Okay Now he's going to put it back on Just the weight vest, no plates Right, and we're going to be able to now Kind of look at his movement and see where he's at So this is, again, what we're looking at the system When we're doing this drill, we're going to go We're basically having a static pillar one What we're looking at is pillar two, three, four, five Okay, so go ahead He's going to hinge, shift Okay He's going to step down And you're going to feel that Now, when we add a little bit of resistance You see that he kind of creates a touch of shift He did a decent job hitting the position But you can see that just adding a little bit of weight As he's walking through the drills Is a great way to add strength Now, these are things we talk about again Inside the throwing chain reaction system But so you can see today These are some simple tips That you want to add specific strength And it doesn't have to be complicated That's one of the things we really try to do With the throwing chain reaction system We want you to learn faster We want our coaches to learn faster And the idea is it's oftentimes It's really those simple things Adding, taking something that's complex Making it simple That's how you're going to get better results faster So thanks so much for watching today's video If you like this video, be sure to give that button A good thump Give us a comment below Anything you'd like to see in the future Thanks and again, be sure to check out The throwing chain reaction system Drill bands, information All that kind of stuff Inside the link in the description We'll see you guys in the next video Hopefully you guys enjoyed today's video As you can see There's a lot that goes into what we do With the throwing chain reaction system If you would like to learn more About how to structure your practices And find the things that help unlock your potential Click the link below And we will see you on the next video
