@@bjf5027I see what you’re getting at but, JK is the second best shot putter in the history of the sport. He’s just unlucky that he came along when the very best in history also has, truly a wonderful time for American throws!
The guys warming up next to the circle is Nazareno Sassia, Argentinian national champion, very talented guy, young and with a lot of space to improve! great video!
Hey Dane as a 5’6 thrower i’m having trouble hitting distances past 40 feet. While i’m definitely proficient in the weight room (bench 300 squat 455) i was wondering if you have any resources and or advice to hit the 45 - 50 mark. thanks
Yo I’m a 5’8 thrower and my HS coach had me do a lot of Plyometrics. We just felt like as throwers (especially short ones) we have to be super fast twitch and able to put a ton of force on the shot as quick as possible.
Same height as you, hit 41' 3" in training at 28 yo. Bench of 225 and 360 squat at that time. 80% of the throws is TECHNIQUE, not strength. It's all about transfer of momentum from your body into the implement. Are you a rotational shot putter? For smaller throwers/putters, I go against the so-called slow-to-fast method favored for the bigger guys. Start with a higher rotational speed and build on that. As smaller guys, we don't have body height and mass to rely on when building rotational momentum. Our momentum depends a great deal more on developed rotational speed and aligning our thrust vectors directly into the direction of the put than the bigger guys. Good luck to you.
I would email Ashley Kovacs or see if she has training resources. In addition to Joe, Ashley has mentored a world champion, three NCAA champions, 20 All-Americans, ... She's the best throw coach in the US right now.
That last throw was nuts, but a lot of these throws do look salvageable and I'm not sure he's doing enough to work on saving these absolute behemoths? I remember a throw at a meet earlier in the year which he fouled which could have been saved which looked ~23.25m. If these shotputters could find a way to improve balance and control and save "out of control" throws, it could lead to an interesting development and evolution of the event.
My son desire participation in shotput game but he dont know technics . When my son select you as coach. What is your fees, howmutch time REQUIRE, terms and condition please told me sir
A two hour delay for the qualifiers in the morning will also mess up the meal schedule badly. Wow a 1 hour drive to/from the stadium, so they had to spend 3 hours cramped in a bus the day of the competition prior to the final? Crazy.
look it's a stupid comment. You don't think Ryan Crouser has had crazy massive training throws? Trust me 24 meters it's a matter of time before he does it in a meet. No one has thrown 22 meters or 23 meters more it's not even close.
You can throw a world record in training, but what does it matter? Before the 86 European champs which I was watching, apparently Litvinov threw 87.30m in training. However Yuri won the Euro champs and his throw is still the world record. Joe needs to bring it in competition. Means nothing in the training area.
@@kurtfrancis4621 I didn’t need reminding, well aware of that. Crosser is the two time Olympic champion and world record holder. Consistently throws over 22m in just about every meet. The point I was making is huge throws in training don’t mean anything if you can’t deliver them in a competition. Re 2019, he beat him and Tom Walsh by 1cm only.

Joe Kovacs is the Dennis James of shotput. Always a champ in practice.
May I remind you, Kovacs is a TWO-TIME World Champion ('15, '19), the last one against Crouser.
@@kurtfrancis4621 no need to remind. I respect the guy, I just think he has a lot of similarities to Dennis James

Kovacs speed is why he is a continual threat to Crouser.
U mean strength

He makes it look like one motion very tough to do, so many things that have to be done right.
Are you going to put out a video on your athletes experience at the World Championships in Budapest?

If Crowser didnt exist, Kovacs would be properly appreciated.
,,,Awesome- Agreed could have saved those throws - wow.

Well, Litvinov would still not be better taking training throws into account as Sedykh threw 87.90 in training after the european championships...
