Erinn Brancheau it’s super simple yet it helps everyone no matter who you are
really useful
I've been coaching high school disc and shot since 2007. This video is really great. It reinforces all the things I've been telling my kids, but hearing it from an Olympic athlete will carry more weight. Thank you.
Thanks Jamie! We're glad to hear it'll help the future generations of throwers!
Don't you find it crazy no one has broke the Discus Record since 1986?
When your forced to do discus in sports day with no training and you don't even know what it is.....
Edit: Wow, my comment is still getting replies 6 years later, I wish you all the best of luck with your discuss throws!
Toby_Night oh my God this is me rn
I'm in athletics so I'm taking part in running and stuff but coach asked me to do discus and I haven't thrown a discus in legit a few years and the only time I've thrown a discus was 2 years ago in a similar scenario at my old school
I winged it last time but this time I'm doing research 😂😂
How'd your sports day go?
I'm competing for my school on 15 but............ MY GODDAMN COACH NEVER TRAINS ME!!! That little piece of *censored* Ugh!!! I don't wanna embarrass myself so I got help online.
Me rn😂😂😂
Toby_Night I feel bad for y’all
This is exactly why I’m watching this video
This is great if you're beginning to throw.
instant subscription because we know you have done lots of research. the technical breakdown of motions is just on an another level. you offer great insights into training camps, routines of the athletes etc. from an overall package point of view this is the best yet. nothing comes close. good job
I trained with him once when I was working with Arête! :D it was really cool
+TypicalPandaas He's an awesome guy! Hoping for big things from him in Rio!
I have gathered a lot of tips from this video and helped with my form, I lobe this video.
thank you for posting it!
Cool guy, interesting video. Honestly more informative than many discus throwing tutorials as well.
best video for advise and explaining I've seen and heard thank you now I'm going to go practice my turn. I didn't know that my head should be lined up with my chest and hips.
My son’s junior high track & field day is next week, and my volunteer position is at the discus station.
Thank you for teaching me what discus is!
This is really helpful.. thanks!
I remember my first throw where i nailed the technique, didnt even feel like i put much effort into it yet it still set my pb
is it still going equally well?
@@wendyleeconnelly2939 haha, I stopped after graduating highschool, but looking to get slowly back into it as a hobby. Thanks for the throwback!
Hopeful we will see more Schuurmans, Harrell, Kovacs and throwers in this series it is awesome
+Robert Stephen Watch this space, we've got a lot more coming!

Nice cinematography and unique camera angles, love the shot at 2:58. Very well produced video!

I am obsessed with this video 😍💪🏻
+maria bravo Thanks!
👍great advice...
I wasn’t doing to well on disc the past week, but I’m ready to change it. It’s all in the hips 🤪
Thanks man
Ugh I miss this so much
I just realized that I've thrown in those very same rings at high school meets lol (Chula Vista Olympic Training Center)
When he said a good throw is effortless for him I felt that good whenever I would try hard to throw it just goes horribly a d doesnt even go far but when I just relax and throw it casually that's when it gets distance
Hi, so I haven't thrown in maybe a year but I tried again when I saw a ring. However, when my arm came around it felt like all the blood was rushing to my hand and it hurt. Any ideas what this is and how to prevent it. I would love to start throwing discus again.
Hellllp I have a meet today and have to do discus!
Shot bro this help meh alot
Well I won 3rd place in discus because I watched this
Serenidie Smith good job!
@@kristalofland2256 thanks
Is that good or bad?
thanks
Even though u probably wont see this, last year i threw the discus for track and feild and it was my first year. I threw 72 feet and 11 inches and i thought this was very helpful for this year im in 8th grade and i hope i can throw farther
that's pretty good especially for a girl in 7th grade
you still doing this?
Just went to my first track meet got no marks threw a 4K shout out ball round 29-30 threw the discus 67-69 my 2nd time ever throwing
Have a track meet today. Didn’t go because, my coaches said I need more practices and experience. Yes I’m that bad 😔
Dead Fool don't worry, mines tomorrow and i'll be worse than you.
keep trying
thx
I got this for sports day tomorrow and idek how to do this
I don’t understand how I be hitting a 50 in practice but 90 in meets lol😂😂
thanks for the video because i just started throwing discus and i have a meet next week
+Shaun Clark Good luck Shaun!
How’d the meet go
thank you for helping me find what i was doing wrong
I'm going to zones for discus and I'm flipping nervous as hell😅so this helpful
Solid this was mean cuz
Gonna sign up for Discus later today for the first time lol.
I’m a junior in highschool and I’ve played other sports like basketball and football and I’m thinking about trying shotput and discus. Should I? I’ve never even done track and people are wanting me to try it
I was in the same boat as you. Besides basketball. And while it definitely depends on who is on your team and your coaches. Track and field was probably the most fun I've had with any sport. Especially discus for me.
bro its so fun
Just wanted to let you guys know I made it my city track meet!! Wish me luck!
+Kaiden Elizondo Nice one Kaiden, good luck!
cool
Sweet
I had GREAT technique. I would burn a half-circle into the discusand would feel electicity snap out my fingertips. In competition, guys a foot taller than me ,with terrible techwould wobble it out farther than me, having never thrown sometimes.I did it for the fun, and the track chicks .But a great throw, for me, felt great.
I'm thinking about doing track and field this year but I havent through discus since 5th grade and I was throwing mid 50's and I'm in 7th now
better starting in 7th than 9th as a freshman. go for it.
I say him at the Pan Am Games In Toronto....
But yeah... it's best to practice over and over and over your entries then jus trying to throw as hard as you can.....
anyone know where this place is? looks very interesting with the multiple rings out in the field
+Zack hamburger It's the olympic training center in Chula Vista, California
+Zack hamburger The rings there are excellent, I love throwing there when I get the chance
good teqniqye
Yeah this stuff middle school and high school coaches don't teach you, you've come to the right place.
I kept gripping it that was my first challenge on discus
Jesus christ this guy is good i barely made my schools first cuts on discus😂😂
In middle school it took me so long just know how to even release
Why wasn’t you tube a thing back in the 80’s when I did the discus in high school!
That coach he's talking to on his iPad is actually my same coach lol one of the best in the biz
whats the song name please
I throw discus it's very fun
Hay
I feel good to be a Texas state champ
Left leg is entirely too high. Keep it low for speed and so that planting it for the release is fluid, as it is in the video the left leg is actually pushing towards the back of the ring rather than just stopping momentum from carrying him out the front.
+None of Your Business shut up fool
I am going to pars for discaus
Very Athletic Movement
Come teach me!!
Brother this dude got some cake... I mean good advice.
My second year of discuss, I'm in 7th grade and my best throw this year is 75 feet, and I qualified for states and got seeded 7th in the state, is this good?
75 got you to states???? In middle school I was at 110 and wasnt even 1st in county
I have sports day tomorrow and I signed up for discus without knowing what it was-
Gjb
how can you do that
I am a senior in high school with 5 years of throwing experience, Im 6'3", 250 lbs and my PR is 92 feet. Trust me that if your technique is off, you will never be able to throw well. I know that because I cant throw past 100 feet. I have seen skinny guys throw 120+ feet. Once you get the technique down you can start factoring in strength.
When buying a discus would a rubber discus or a metal discus be better?
buy a metal one to be prepared for competitions. get the right weight
POV your forced to do discus for sports day and your watching this 4 minutes before you do it
I only started throwing discus about a month ago and my coach wants me to go to a competition because no one else at my club wants to 😂
arete!!!
My teacher decided to pick me for discus throwing contest but the problem is that i dont know how to do this and when we do practices,I cant do it right
Im reallystruggling and im the last person that she'll ever teach at school cause shes gonna retire soon.I really hope to do this perfectly tommorow
The otaku God how’d ya do?
Before you throw with the full turn you got to break it down and make sure you can do all of it perfectly before combining it in to a full turn
Does anybody have any tips on how to keep my throwing arm high because I start high but then once I official throw my arm drops... so it’s killing my throw
The Kyra Show I had the same problem, it might be that you don’t have enough speed coming across the ring. I fixed by just going faster and letting the momentum carry it.
watch Arete Throws Nation
In in 8th grade and 5'7 and about 190 and its my first year doing discus (Ive played football my whole life so im pretty built) For try outs i tried out for one thing:shot put. I made the team but wasnt a starter on shotput. I was good in javelin and shotput but was terrible at discus. My first two discus throws hit the wall to my right and my third flew only 60 feet.I soon thought i could never throw discus well enough to be a thrower at the meets. I soon got more interested in throwing the discus. After about 2 weeks of commitment i started throwing around 100 with a cheap rubber discus (1k) (also i was fronting it) Just last week my good friend brought his metal discus and during that time i somewhat mastered being able to spin and throw. After throwing about 7 throws i started throwing in the 108's. Next week i packed down my spin and now i am currently able to throw 117-121's.
+K v y h s dats nice bro i wish i could front 115 but oh well, there was this dude at my meet that throws 140 with a spin and 115 fronting it, i was pretty impressed but once again i give you props cuz 115 i pretty good for fronting it
There is no "starting shot)
+SuperPlayz 765 wym?
What is a starter shot
+SuperPlayz 765 i meant a starter at shop put (it means i would throw shot in the meet, hence: starter)
Im 13, and tomorrow I have to go to a national competition and represent my school for discuss, but i haven't practiced in a year
I'm 14 and have a statewide track meet tomorrow. I haven't properly thrown a discus in about a year and I understand how this must have felt
Haha i have to do something like that aswell
How’d it go
Muse Tube
Someone’s in their pussy. Like he said he’s 13 , he doesn’t know
CharlieW.112 yeah I hope one day I make something like that but I’ll definitely practice the year before to the day it is
Floating your left leg going into power position
Yo Tambien Quiero Lanzar Disco A Si Como Usted 😍😍😍😍
I came first for discus throwing at regionals and I have never thrown a discus in my whole life is this anything got to do with my muscles
Guess who won the intermediate gold medal for discus throwing!! THANKS 😊😊😊😊
Awesome! Hope our video helped 😀😀
He makes it look so easy 😂
+J ｏｈｎｌｏｃｋ L ＰＳ Practice makes perfect!
+World Sport haha, thanks!!!! Didn't expect you to reply X3
I on the discus at my school
My heats are tommorow... So wish me luck
Hi! Nice vid... I'm 11 and have a schools sports carnival on Monday... I really want to get Age Champion... Hope this helps! 😘😬😁
Let us know how you do!
World Sport ok thx 😃
How'd u do?
Ibrahim Najm good... they will announce the age champions on Monday. Half of our sports carnival got cancelled caused of rain. So we did the other half at school.. they will announce age champions on Monday. Thanks for asking. 😀😍😘
+TheHeer&AmairaShow so how'd you do
It looks so easy. I don't think I'd be able to do it though
Practice practice practice!
First of all you need to learn the basics then only this video would be helpful for you
Man, it looks so elegant. Almost like a fucking ballet.
i got sports day tmr and i dont wanna embarrass myself so im studying 😭
I do throwing in my school track and field and it is the first meet and they didn’t teach us anything about how to do the spinning thing and we have to throw discus
RyeBread115 my first meet in High I didn’t do the spin. The spin is the last thing you learn, first you start off with your power position, from there you work your way to a south, then you can start working on a spin. The spin isn’t something that you’re going to get in a couple weeks, if you do it won’t be perfect. But honestly it’s really good to learn the basic maneuvers first, don’t worry that you don’t know it now, sooner or later you’ll learn it

Hey i am a second year thrower looking for a few good warm ups/ drills i can do. I was also wondering my farthest competition throw last year as a freshman was a 114ft is that good or.
Myles Hicks that's a great throw I am a discus thrower too last year is a freshman I threw 125 ft which put me at the top of my school district but all schools are different you should first look at what your competing with but yea that's a great throw and you can only get better from there
Myles Hicks grab a fence or a pole and rotate your hips creating separation (pretend your gonna throw) that helps a little and wheels, South Africans are great for hitting positions last practice running because throwing is a sprint too haha that's all I did last year and I threw 150 so I guess It works
his coach is my coach too
+Cameron Dorris We expect big things from you in the future! He's awesome
