Great video. I threw at the Kansas Relays in 1957 against the great Al Order. Perry Obrian was also there showing us how he threw the shot put. I plan to throw the discus this summer at the Pa Keystone Senior Games at age 84.
Wow, thanks for the video! This is my 4th year of doing discus at my school and I am the oldest discus person and I was tasked with teaching the discus portion of the team and this video helps a lot! Once again, thanks Coach!
thank you for such a detailed explanation and demonstration; I just ordered a 1 kg discus and will try the techniques; only ever thrown a discus once in my life (50+ years ago); I am now a masters athlete; please would you explain position of hand on the point of release of the discus? thanks Throws Coach.
This is a common question... some rims are thinner/thicker depending on the manufacturer, its more of a preference and level of comfort for the athlete . Rim width is only one factor that impacts distance. For a good read on factors influencing distance see: track.coachesdirectory.com/article/long-distance--basic-aerodynamics-and-flight-characteristics-in-discus-throwing-article.html
There are many factors that influence the discus on release. Grip, release path and wrist can cause the discus to wobble. Send a video (give me a link) and will have a look.
Shame on you coach for not explaining the transfer from the left to the right foot upon release. You are letting your right leg drag the platform instead of hoping and transferring it with the left foot! Losing a LOT of power in your throw that way. NEVER drag your right foot.
Hi Marty... thanks for the comment...there are two primary recovery positions. Most throwers like to transfer feet, but some Europeans (especially the Germany athletes) do not. It is more of a post block position with no reverse. The reason I did not include this, beginning throwers likes to leave the surface before force is applied to the implement and throw with no contact. Stay tuned for an upcoming video that will focus on a "next" level video.
thx i was put on the discus team without no practice. i watched this the morning of my first track meet. i ended up getting 2nd

The wrist should be turned out (45 degrees) at release with the pointing finger applying last contact with spinning action on the discus.

Hi i am discuss thrower but badly strugling with circle tecnique..can u pls help
Thanks i got a meet on the 25th
I've always wondered... would a thinner rim make it go farther (if thrown by elite level)
This is a common question... some rims are thinner/thicker depending on the manufacturer, its more of a preference and level of comfort for the athlete . Rim width is only one factor that impacts distance. For a good read on factors influencing distance see: track.coachesdirectory.com/article/long-distance--basic-aerodynamics-and-flight-characteristics-in-discus-throwing-article.html
Is starting from the outside of the circle legal
No. The drill is just to practice the south African technique (half turn). Thanks for the question.
Sir some People says that discuss throw only for 6 feet boys ..
Not for 5.6 feet boy..
What is your opinion sir ..
sir please explain warm exercise and also define proper grip of discus
Grip is in this video. I may do a warm up video in a few months.
Cool
Plezz uplod 2nd turn drills ...
