Shot Put

Hai, Assalamualaikum guys. How are you today?

Well, day by day Covid-19 cases increase yaa. I hope you guys follow the SOP where ever you are. 

Today, my main point is to give you new information about the technique to perform Shot Put.

Haaaa, are you guys know what is "shotput" in track and field event?

"Shotput" is the action where you need to try "put" a heavy weighted ball as far as you can. In this event, you are not allowed to throw it, but instead of push the ball out into the air.

So, now are you guys can image right how this event should be done?

I am so excited to try this event when I am back to campus because I did not have any experience with this event before.

I am still learning and make some research to add my knowledge too about shot put.

And we can learn together right😉

Alright, first things first, we need to know the right technique to hold the shot put which we need to hold it with 3 fingers or with 5 fingers. The fingers slightly spread apart with the thumb for support and your palm should be pointing towards the throwing direction. 

 

                               

                               Hold with 3 fingers

            
                  Hold with 5 fingers

Then, place the bullets at your neck and under the ear. Your arms are lifted almost horizontal and the elbow are facing outward. At this position, you need to stand at the front of the circle and let your left shoulder facing the direction of the throw. 

Next, is to deliver the bullets, you need to lower your right foot. If you want to push the bullets, your knead the waist and push with the right hand forward across the body and you will simultaneously pull down your left hand down and then your legs will straighten. When you release the bullets, your right hand and elbows elongated outside and far from the body. After that, you will be back to early position as you start. 

Haaa, are you guys clear with the technique? This one is for the beginner like me. Haha

Well, there are a few phases in shot put. If you guys want to know more, just search at Mr. Google okay. It can help you more than me 😂

I think that all information I share with you guys. Hope it will give you a little bit knowledge in future💛
