Sample: Discus Throw Technique

The discus throw is divided into four main phases; the start/wind up, the movement across the ring, the power position, and the delivery.

Start and Wind Up

The thrower faces the back of the circle with the feet shoulder width apart, with the knees bent and the arms down by the sides. The preparation position will demonstrate some forward tilt, similar to a back squat position with the lower body. The discus is gripped with bent fingers on the rim and with the palm firmly pressed against the implement.

The discus thrower’s body weight is distributed evenly, with the feet planted flat before the preliminary movements begin.

The throw starts when the right arm moves toward the left side, between the left hip and shoulder, the left hand guides the discus to the left. The discus is brought behind the right hip and is locked into place as the left arm extends out and across the body.
