ABOUT THE SESSION
A systematic approach to teach your athletes the progression from the standing throw (front of circle), half turn throw (middle of circle) and full throw (starting at the back of the circle). At the end of the lesson you will have specific steps and directions to teach your athlete how to use the rotational technique for both the shot put and discus.
