 One, two, one, two, three, four, five, four, five, six, seven, eight, ten, fifteen, fourteen, fifteen, fifteen, sixteen, twenty-five, forty-five, twenty-six, twenty-eight, twenty-seven, twenty-eight. Here we go. Dog, what are you doing? Who are you talking to? You. Look at where I'm going. I'm right close. Had to be in that pie though. I've always wanted to get to pie. Palm kernel arrow. It's off. It's dead. That's enough for all of us. For what? Four and a half pounds of chicken? For a day? chicken for a day? It says it's in the NATO hall. The glamorous life. Buddy, what are you doing? 12th of July, lightning storm, look like a possible tornado, hail on the high school site. Legit rain. Okay guys, we're gonna start checking everybody in so when this weather goes away we can get to business. It's gonna be okay. It'll be fine. I'm gonna do a very shortened warm-up. So Coach Smith, Rucker Smith, this is his biggest accomplishment is that he is the head coach of Airtay Throws Nation in Southern California. He also is a three-time world medalist. He's the Dutch national record holder in the shot put. He has a 71 foot shot put PR 222 discus PR. He's the only guy in the history of the track and field to medal at the world championships in both the shot put in the discus at the same world championships. Only guy ever. Okay? So what we're gonna do, we're gonna explain the six pillars. Pillar one, so what he's doing, he's creating tension from his left foot to the discus and you see that stretch. We're setting up stretch reflex at JGO pillar two. So pillar two. Okay? So pillar two is what we refer to as setting up maximum power. When we go to pillar three, we drop in. The left side system has started to work from the back part. So pillar four is what we refer to as axis transition. So you guys, this is where you come around. Pillar five is basically what we refer to as locking down power. Go ahead J pillar six. So now he's gonna move into his block. He's gonna try to drive his right hip through further. He's collapsing his foot a little too much. First drill is really simple. We just focus on this position set up. So let's go. So we go set up to wind one. All right? So now put it put it all together. Just think now think of a full throw because this is what most kids miss. Think of keeping the arms apart and just wind the upper body around the lower body. That was good. I like that. Good job. So the first drill we do for pillar two is we turn the left foot. Now I'll reverse it for you guys in a second. I'm gonna start here and we're just gonna do it what we call as a center of mass shift. 845 sweep. We just want to make sure the foot is turned at 845. We're gonna stretch, right? We've shifted our center of mass. Notice when I keep reaching see how I should naturally roll on the toe. So what I'm gonna do is stay at that pillar two position and we wind and we feel this from here and we feel that twist and cross. Notice that's why because we're twisting our hips. Boom. All right? Pillar five is staying on the angle and moving to pillar six and then attacking and starting delivery. Oh there you go. Eric Johnson, nice to meet you. It's a pleasure. That's good. I like what you're doing. Oh thank you. Bang bang bang busting to Eric Johnson over here. Love the grind. So our plans and hopes for fantastic weather have failed. It has been absolutely the forecast kept changing. It was going to be clear at nine then it was going to be clear at 10 then it was going to be clear at 11.30. Now it is 100% chance of rain. Pretty much the rest of the day. A little bit rougher. Everybody was here. They're not afraid for this story. More upright, long and I'm just here. Into the wall, long to short. Okay here we go and put together the South African which is technically like pillar two and a half. Okay two and a half through six and you're just going linear and trying to go rotational but you can't get it pulling me into the throat to create a bigger sprint. And pillar two starts and see what you got. Nice and controlled. Now we're going to put together our pillar pillar one start and Rucker's going to demonstrate his wind up again. Okay go ahead. Okay ready? All right watch his start. See how he's kind of static. Selves a hand because you guys did a great job today. All right. When you stay here the left side this this is you're creating this this whip right so from here to here creates that stretch. It's this. So finished up first day great day in terms of how the camp actually once it went off 100% attendance total downpour. We talked about that a little bit at lunch finished up the day with the pillar connection work. How's the ring feel? It looks like it's kind of dirty right? Okay just want to make sure you don't slip. A drill real quick. Okay that's it. So it's going to always be heel up and then drill so you're turning that foot like you're drilling a hole in the ground. Right side that's nice look at that. Yeah I like it. Ooh pretty nice. That was a good sesh. Kids and animal. You'd be grandma irrité. We had our stud Nick Lemke from Waukesha, Wisconsin. He was down, grinded all day. We went out and did a private training session for an hour. Field was totally soaked. Stan and I stood out there barefoot because in order to walk around the field I was in ankle deep water. So at any rate we're back at the Airbnb. Mom mom's here and come on in. My mom wants to be shy. So my mom lives here. My little mom is coming in. We're going to have some pasta and some let's see we're doing pesto and chicken and pasta and meat sauce so say hi to everybody mom. You can't you can't be in Chicago and not stop at the stop in town so we drove around did all the cool spots checked out downtown magnificent mile whacker drive drove up down to the north side where I used to live checked out some of my old neighborhoods it was pretty wild totally got lost in the stroll down memory lane I haven't been to Chicago in about seven years so it was it was pretty cool drove by Wrigley Field and then headed back so now just gonna get the bed here shortly gonna have a hopefully a good day hopefully weather holds and we don't have the apocalypse part two come tomorrow but at any rate been a lot of fun and but I'll be looking forward to wrapping up the day and getting starting to get into chill mode and looking forward to getting home seeing my kids and my lovely wife Mrs. Aritae she's killed it coordinating everything and really helping make the tour a success so at any rate one more day to go so it should be fun should be should be good stuff
