When you first start your spin, you start with a slow, deliberate sweep with your right leg. The leg sweep should start out slow and a little farther out from your body. Before planting the right foot in the center of the ring, you should bring your foot closer to your body to tighten the circle that is your body spinning. It is at this point when you should speed up. TL;DR-speed up right before you plant your right foot in the center of the ring.
Did shotput in track in middle school Am a girl, always placed above third. girls with massive upper strength - YOU CAN BE GOOD AT THIS SPORT. DISCUS TOO.
I love shortput and i was the third best in our national competition,bt after the high school games was over i returned home where nobody practises this intresting event. Am not comfortable coz i see am sleeping on the gift God gave me...i need some help.,,i belive i can perfom best
@xDASCOQx I hear you, but you are making it more complex that it is in reality. If a person with great strength does all 3, as you say, the shot will in fact go far. The problem -- which we probably both agree to -- is that the very strong thrower generally gets one of the three wrong -- usually arm speed is insufficient. ON THE OTHER HAND, the discus (my main event) is indeed so much more complex that simple formulas are just impossible.
@xDASCOQx Actually, the physics is pretty clear: distance is only a function of height of release, angle of release, and velocity at takeoff. So if you are throwing faster than your friend and you are the same speed, you must be throwing at a better angle and/or you are releasing the shot from a greater height.
Question: I learned how to spin from this video. my coach and another shot put thrower on my team (shes 3rd in the USA for shot put) said i have an excellent spin form. I have a little understanding about the speed of it (start off slow, then go fast). I just don't know when the speed changes from slow to fast (at which point in the technique). I am a sophmore in high school and i have recently PR'd with the spin @ 32ft 4in. Please help me with the transfer of speeds so i can improve my distance
@Bulldog76center Hey you got to see that the the world record for shotput was from the 80s... still not broken by anyone since then, so old school must be doing something right.
quick question. so this is my first year doing shotput and i honestly have no idea on what i am doing, my coach said that im a "rotational shutputter" or something like that. is that bad? or good? what should i do to improve, because honessstly i cant throw that far.
I´m not a pro but my pb with 4kg shot is about 14m.. 7kg bp is 10m lol (now im 14 btw ). But yeah it´s okay... some 13yr olds that i have examined have a bit more but im sure you trough more by now ( 12m or more maybe :) ).
Actually you are both wrong. From physics point of view the optimal angle is 45 degrees but because of biomechanical reasons the optimal angles is 37-38 degrees.
@Biohazard7123 Well, that is true, but your argument is still invalid. So you are saying that steroids 30 years ago are more potent than the ones produced today? The top athletics still use steroids and other performance enhancing drugs to this day.
Will you Go to Heaven when you Die?(Here's a quick test) Have you ever lied, stolen, committed adultery(Jesus said if you even look with lust it's adultery) Will you be guilty on Judgment Day? Be honest. You know you will be guilty and end up in Hell. But God is not willing That Any perish. God loves us so much He sent Jesus Christ to suffer and die on the Cross and He rose from the dead. Today, Repent(Confess and Forsake your Sins) and trust in JESUS Christ then read the Bible and Obey it.
first off the guy moves too slow, his elbow is too high, and his legs are too close together before he switches feet, and he doesn't finish out the throw by spinning around
This dude graceful as hell.
The actual tutorial wasn't necessary. The music alone has set me on my path to shot putting glory.

My left ear enjoyed this.
Lol I can only hear this in my left ear too.
Lmao bwhahahahaaaa..I'm hella ass weak cuz you're so right lol
Yah
That guy's dreamy.
I love how Andy isnt doing anything how the Coach describes it! Hilarious!
great vid by the way did anyone else notice they guy in the blue looks like hes captain crunk from the Goonies
this helps so freaking much. ive lost my touch in my spin
awww yeah..cheezy 90's power rock background music. i feel like i'm in high school again.
Did shotput in track in middle school
Am a girl, always placed above third.
girls with massive upper strength - YOU CAN BE GOOD AT THIS SPORT. DISCUS TOO.
I wish I had seen this video when I was in high school in the 90's.
I love shortput and i was the third best in our national competition,bt after the high school games was over i returned home where nobody practises this intresting event. Am not comfortable coz i see am sleeping on the gift God gave me...i need some help.,,i belive i can perfom best
Lol track and field tomorrow for me
Im watching this because I elected myself to do shot put this Friday in my schools sports day, and I had forgotten the techniques ...
I have a track meet tomorrow and its my last indoor meet, I am doing the basic throw. I am screwed too lol
thank you. excellent footage.
im currently practicing for an upcoming event in june..
Omg i am so scard i have to go to a champationship game for the Shot put on Tuesday In Saint John!!!! I scard wish me luck!!!
i still have NO idea how to do a shot put thingie. i need to learn it for track and field try outs!!!!!!!!

Man ballerina
LOL I thought I was the only stupid that was looking for something like this because of that haha regards from Argentina!

Umm no way in hell am i doing that spiny thing at a track meet
I'd use what you prefer and the one you throw farther with use the one you're comfortable with
I had some shot put jokes...but I tossed them. These jokes will throw peole. The result of his toss is up in the air. It takes balls to do shot put.
What a strange sport lol
my right ear feels unsatisfied
A some i wonder if you can do that in Specialolypics track feild
Any videos for left hand throwers
I achieved Bronze medal thanks to you buddy! haha :D
im living in nyc where to cometo jointhe club
Holy crap. Yes
today i threw 4.46 m....lolzz! :D first time!! tomorrow's competition i never played before and i'm in it! lolz!
wow. men have to throw a 7 kilo shotput
I have sports day tmr so I'm trying to force everything into my head as I'm doing shot putt.
i have my physical education boards practical tomorrow... :D
@Bulldog76center Hey you got to see that the the world record for shotput was from the 80s... still not broken by anyone since then, so old school must be doing something right.
I FUCKING LOVE THIS VISEO I SHOW IT TO ALL MY FRIENDS
U must not throw the ball so high that will reduce the distance cause the heavy metal ball will be pulled by gravity faster
i'm throwing 53.6 i need this to get first in state
quick question. so this is my first year doing shotput and i honestly have no idea on what i am doing, my coach said that im a "rotational shutputter" or something like that. is that bad? or good? what should i do to improve, because honessstly i cant throw that far.
THIS is rotational shot put, it's neither good nor bad, just means your better at getting around the ring rather than doing the glide.
can i get a trainer,would love to represent my country someday
Kinda strange that the Olympic champion uses the relatively simpler slide throwing technique.
decathalon tommorow lets fuckin get it!
thumbs up if u watch this video because u were unexpectedly chosen to go for a shot put comp
Why is this so hard? Why can't anyone that is strong do this?
It has to do a lot with technique/form which I'm still trying to get down :(
Are you interesting shot put, then i refer on great resource for online shopping shot put equipment.
@Guitarfool202 Yeah, that was my ignorance right there. Scratch = forfeiting a throw. Foul = touching the toe board/top of ring/outside of the ring.
With what kilo?
thanks :) its work for me . cause my shot put , up after doing this technic . from 12m to 13++m . haha :) thanks .
i love you
k thanks for the help
I have a track practice!
However, things with more air resistance drop slower.
if you press 7 fast it sounds like he is saying SHITS
I used this and threw pretty far, but my coach didn't want us to spin...
im pretty sure he scratched every time lol
I guess its like anyone who can jump is a great basketball player.
Just leave moron
track meet tom. and idk know to do this...im screwed :(
towards the end of this video, the way the video is cut up is really choppy haha
im left handed....
@ambassador158 im calling fail on that attempt....
thanks my meet tomorrow i gotta throw 36 feet im in 6th grade
1:46 SCRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATCH lol
cool.
superman can throw across U.S
Randy Barnes was a hard roider. Not to say his form wasn't awesome, but that record has stayed for a good while for a few reasons, not just his form.
Did he not step out at 1:46? Doesn't that DQ the put?
@Myselfworld Say that in front of crhistian cantwell,joachim olsen,jacko gill and sam crouser hahahaha
people its 90 degrees gosh
im 13 (boy )throwing a 8 pound ball and i got 9.8 is that good ?
eh
same
BC IS WATCHING IT
im 12 (girl) and my pb is 8.25 meters is this okay for my age - good videoo!!
its right
My principle is making me do shotput because she saw me doing just kidding around and she said that's far join shotput
@davidthefat
Hey are participate any shot put.
I'm 11 (girl) and my pb is 8.69,is that good?
btw won first place in city championships!
I´m not a pro but my pb with 4kg shot is about 14m.. 7kg bp is 10m lol (now im 14 btw ). But yeah
it´s okay... some 13yr olds that i have examined have a bit more but im sure you trough more by now ( 12m or more maybe :) ).
Is that taylor martinez?
240p we meet again!
Actually you are both wrong. From physics point of view the optimal angle is 45 degrees but because of biomechanical reasons the optimal angles is 37-38 degrees.
Good
Swim Fan hmmm
nice
yeah with a 6lb thats easy
I know for me it school athletics!
@Biohazard7123 Well, that is true, but your argument is still invalid. So you are saying that steroids 30 years ago are more potent than the ones produced today? The top athletics still use steroids and other performance enhancing drugs to this day.
yes actually it is over the usual expectation which is 5-6M im a 12year old guy and i make approx 10M which is also better thanusual
LoL there all wearing nike shoes
he only beat the record before it though by like 3 inches so was that guy roidin to??
@davidthefat Randy Barnes is ma boy
Ok

At 1:49 scratch lol
@MrFrozenLava and im 16 and I throw 51ft. want a medal?
I don't get it
first off the guy moves too slow, his elbow is too high, and his legs are too close together before he switches feet, and he doesn't finish out the throw by spinning around
Holy fuck i hate going on these videos where people are just lying about there shotput throws
Yes, Brian Oldfield was also a hard roider.
