In order to throw the shot put further than ever, the thrower must have great strength, and balance using the correct technique, including the power position. In the video clip below University of Buffalo assistant coach Jim Garnham, shows you how to get more out of the Power Position.

Coach Garnham shows you three phases of the power position and discusses some common mistakes that throwers make. For more information on purchasing the DVD that this drill came from click the link Teaching and Coaching Glide and Rotational Shot Put

The YouTube video has sound, so please make sure that your sound is turned on and that you have access to the site. (some schools bock access to YouTube)
