I'm 71. When I was 15, I won javelin contests against boys as old as 18. I haven't thrown since a kid, but now am getting back into it. I've signed up for a senior track meet for seniors, taking place in Utah, October 2023. I practice each evening, by throwing a long guava stick.
Hey, ich hoffe Dein Wettbewerb im Oktober war super👍. Ich habe riesigen Respekt vor Dir! Hut ab und weiterhin viel Spaß beim Werfen. Wie weit bist Du gekommen? Alles beste Josef
@@josefkoller7087Hallo Josef, danke. Es war mein erster Leichtathletikwettkampf seit meinem 15. Lebensjahr. Bin jetzt 71. Im Speerwerfen war ich nicht gut. Sie ermöglichen ein sehr leichtes Speerwurfverhalten (500 Gramm), und die Spitze reichte nicht herunter, um in der Erde zu stecken - ich hatte also keinen guten Wurf. Ich hätte heimlich ein paar Nickelmünzen auf die Speerspitze kleben sollen. Allerdings durfte ich mit dem kanadischen Team (ich bin ein Yankee) an einem Staffellauf teilnehmen, und wir bekamen Bronze. Es gab eine 99-jährige Frau aus Oregon, die 1500 Meter ununterbrochen schwamm, um Gold zu holen!
@@karthikkrishna1439inform yourself before saying stuff like that, an olympic champion will always be an olympic champion. You Indians always talk so great of Chopra and seemingly don't even know about the sport nor the olympics. Not every single javelin post is about Neeraj Chopra, he has nothing to do with this post so just leave it out of here. He hasn't even thrown 90m yet, which Max Dehning at 19 years old did. You have over a billion residents and just one olympic champion, rubbing it under everyone's nose like your a sports nation is pathetic
I got a silver medal for Panama at the Central American Master Atheltics Championship in Guatemala, on October 12, 2019 using all these techniques. Absolutely helpful.
All the BIGGEST throws have been from the Germans, first Uwe Hohn throws 104.80m, because of this throw the javelins are changed, then Jan Zelezny Czech republic 98.48m, then Vetter, with his huge 97m, I reckon he will not only hit the 100m I'm predicting 101.34m I've been constantly dreaming this, I don't know why, but I just have this feeling VETTER will not just break the record , BUT THE FIRST MAN OVER 100M with current javelin.
The vision and quality of content on this channel is amazing. I'm very impressed by this whole project. Big ups to the creators of these mini docs. Our schools should show these to our youth in physical education programs.
This makes me respect Alexander the Great's "Elite Javelin Throwers" a lot more! (I could never picture a javelin thrower) They were the bane of cavalry and chariots among others during his unmatched campaign. Dangerous stuff! :) ;)
Step One: the Happy Horse Prance Step Two: lean back with the Half-Naruto Run Step Three: Trip and Fall, accidentally flailing the javelin forward Step Four: Stop yourself from falling down before the white line
Thanks heaps for this video! I compete nationally in Javelin and no coach has talked to me about some of this stuff. I really think this is going to add a couple of meters to my throws! Thanks heaps!
This guy is helping a lot cause I'm in a slump rn. Only hitting 110ft when my PR is 128.5 ft (I know its till bad but its my second year throwing so go easy on me). But Thomas is a great teacher and hopefully after he retires he coaches the next generation
I have two more track meets left this year and 11 more feet to qualify for state competition, I'm sure it's possible and I think this video definitely helped.
@@Stuka-eo2sz unfortunately I didn't quite make it, at our district meet I missed qualifying by a few feet. This year's season is about to start soon though, and I'm super excited to start again, I think I could easily make it this year.
Very helpful presentation. I would only add that there is sometimes confusion about the purpose of the run-up. Its purpose is to overcome the inertia of the torso. The forward pitch of the torso and rotation of the shoulders over the block are what generate most of the power for the throw. As Thomas says, only 20% of the power is due to the arm. This is especially apparent in Zelezny's best throws.
I'm here for a provincial meet... That I didn't expect because I just competed at lower levels just for fun but oh my , I need this vid . Thank you so much💗
I have prelims for school athletics on Friday, I've got through before and done really well, and i need some tips! hopefully this will help! so I'll tell you the results on Friday!!
Very Thankful to this channel for this amazing tutorial video.! Tomorrow is Sports/atheletes in school and i am participating in javelin throw., lets see what happens tomorrow hope for the best., fingers crossed., atleast silver medal i want.! hope for the best.! 😁 Pray for me 🙏🙌
The cross training with table tennis was unexpected. Wonder if there are any dual champions? (there probably simply isn't time to compete at both on the elite level tho)
ALSO YOU WILL KNOW ITS A PERFECT THROW AS THERES THE MOST INCREDIBLE FEELING WHEN YOU'VE TRULY HIT THE THROW AT THE PERFECT ANGLE AND HOW IT PROPELLS YOU FORWARD, U JUST " KNOW " THAT ITS A BIG THROW ONCE U GET THAT " FEELING " OF " WHOA " ONCE YOUVE TRULY HIT IT AND IT LEAVES YOUR HAND SO EFFORTLESSLY, MANY TIMES AT TRAINING I ALWAYS " AIMED " FOR THAT PERFECT RELEASE, IM CLAPPING, YELLING OUT " YES!!!" ONCE I KNOW IVE HIT IT BEAUTIFULLY...
If anyone here knows where the Powys county is I'm the best 13 year old javelin thrower right now in Powys (Wales) with a throw of 29.80m ( but only at my age)
I don't know very much about Javelin toss or any of these athletic sports but I have begun watching several of these already. I would like to learn this so please correct me if I am blissfully ignorant of what I'm saying. It would seem to me that wind speed and other conditions would be a factor to this but wouldn't tossers prefer a specific degree of toss all the time? From a mathematical perspective, wouldn't 45 degrees be the best toss in all situations? I apologize if I'm very incorrect but I would like to learn the intricacies of this.
Atma youre right but many people reccomend lower than that, 35ish degrees as the javelin will lift in the air and the way the back muscles are angled is very conducive to a lower angled yet still high throw, just think of pushing a car, you want to engage your back to the fullest you can not to mention your throw will get a nice boost from your run up if your legs are working from that sort of angle
Atma also a human is a human and its difficult to achieve a perfect anything, when you are in the throw the angle at which your release point is positioned will rapidly increase in a short time so beginning the throw in a slightly angle will allow you to naturally rise towards that 44.99999 degree angle 😊
Thanks for the info! Yes, I do understand what you mean... it would be difficult to get a specific angle consistently, even with practice. Even if it's in muscle memory, nerves still play a vital role in competitions along with adrenaline, mental state, the works.
In general keep this in mind: head wind 37 degrees, normal wind 40ish degrees, tailwind 42ish degrees. A javelin is no ball, therefore 45 degrees is not optimal. With headwind you generally throw a little bit lower since the javelin will general more lift this way and glide longer. With back wind you can put your javelin "on top" of the wind by throwing it a tiny bit higher. 40 degrees is the generally advised angle I believe.
Elbow injuries are common in javelin throwing, and it's mostly due to technical faults, in which the muscles aren't used correctly, therefore forcing them, which could lead to potential injuries
is there a reason why the throwing side foot, in his case his right foot, is not thrown forward? i don't know anything about javelin throwing just curious, it seems that you would gain more force by doing so
the reason its not thrown forward is because you are using it to force yourself into your left foot or block. This causes your body to slingshot over your block, your penultimate step foot (right foot int this case) cant go forward due to it still being behind.
Oh hello again, I see you were into javalin back then still. Well 40m was very good at 14, wish you had actually gone to a javalin club back then like you just started too. Now you can throw 65m with 800gm after only 2 months ish of doing it again instead of 40m at 700gm. Also f you, why were you so boring in high school like couldn't you have tried a big harder to enjoy yourself. Mf apprenticeship work 5 days a week is so bad. Do better next time!!!!!
Often it's just shown as Nike zoom javelin elite 2 (like here: www.spikeshop.nl/webshop/spikes-1/speerwerpen-22/nike-zoom-javelin-elite-2-(zwart-002)-558)

this is the best video I have ever seen for javelin.........a super helpful video........,.... thanks a lot .............
Thanks Attri! Glad to hear you found it useful
2:03 thats my pb
Javelin lacks one thing: a target.
Javelin is distance, not accuracy
The target is the distance, maybe
Exactly !!!
I just use my dog

Thomas, what about Decathlon
What annoys me is I release at the same angle and guess what, it lands flat :/ every time.
i think you should put more power and aim at the sky
Either, you’re dropping your elbow, or you’re not throwing it far enough for the tip to turn towards the ground
No offense to the other replies but you should try flicking your fingers when you throw worked amazing for me

We thought Rohler was going to smash it. It does set up what should be a brilliant competition in Rio!
He had to deal with injuries prior to the competition, so he wasn't as fit as he should've been. But the Olympics totally made up for that!
