Building a Shot Put Circle At My House (My First Practice At Home)

[@rocklobster3011]

I know shotput is your main career, but how far do you think you could throw disc? I know your high school discus throw was insane

[@RyanCrouser23]

I think 65-67m relatively quickly, hopefully further, but it would take full time dedication

[@jansvozil1599]

@@RyanCrouser23 and will you try discus fulltime in future?

[@SteveJernee]

@@RyanCrouser23 that would sure be an incredible feat to be the first person to win an Olympic gold medal in shot put AND discus

[@Johnrap]

His gotta stick with shot through the Oregon Worlds. After that Discus would be awesome. I'd suggest the same game plan for Karsten Warholm. Make this the last season of hurdles, then go for the 400m/800m double. Though I suppose if there's a chance for 5 Shot Put golds, that's not a bad plan either.

Appreciate it!

@@RyanCrouser23 I am now 15 and I throw 50m 1kg discus and 15.50m 3k shotput What do you think I have to choose. Hoping for your reply

[@jacktorrance6265]

@@balpreetsingh2772 nice but when you are 15 you should be throwing a 1.6 kg discus and 12 lb shotput. The shotput is an easier transition but the disc can be a bit more tricky

Love partnering and working with such a give like you Ryan. Thanks for being a great Servant Leader!

i love that hus pro tips are actually pro tips, because he is a pro

Ryan I am your biggest fan

[@volticswift7997]

This video should be a good example of bad throwing days. Even the best have them. You can’t get so down on yourself even if you can’t get it out there. They will come!

[@Johnrap]

If you do a freeze frame where 13:03 turns to 13:04 he looks exactly like my little brother A.J. My little brother was an Eastern States champion in the Discus, but he was never very good at Shot Put. There were a couple near 60-foot throwers on his high school team and I think he just figured it wasn't worth even training the Shot. So, he won tons in Discus and then went to a college without a track team. This was decades ago. College scholarships were mostly going to cross country runners in those days. A lot of good throwers never picked up an implement again after high school.

[@kushchaudhary1102]

Thank you so much sir.Even after being such a big athlete, you share all your things. Very love from India 🙏🥰

Cool: athletics, constructing and gardening in one video! These efforts were not in vain, congrats with new WR!

[@smittyplays668]

Hey ryan I'm a middle school athlete and just started to spin for shot its just amazing what you can throw for shot

[@pdodle]

Already a big fan. This video is so real. Love from India.

[@JaxonNelsonZo6]

When you stuck your whole arm down the ground to get the shot I burst out laughing😂

[@RyanCrouser23]

The struggle is real

[@ostealthkilla1827]

Glad to see this channel. I look up to you and love learning from your videos. I'm trying to get better at disc and shot for highschool heading into junior year. Your videos inspire and help alot. I'm kinda late to working out but hopefully not too late. I'm going to workout alot this summer between building fences and the gym. Much love and respect to you. Keep up the amazing work!!! 💪💪

[@Edgarq-jw6cu]

Love the videos, much love take care!

[@Brndndutton]

Very cool. Especially to see you do the work yourself. 😎💙🙏🏼 Also a native to the beautiful land of Arkansas.

[@nathanvillegas6492]

Hey Ryan. Im an athlete from Puerto Rico mostly discus but I wasnt able to go see you today or yesterday since I have school. I am ranked #1 in Puerto Rico with a shot of 55.54m ~ 183ft and I really wanted to go see you even though I watch your videos. Also congrats on getting 1st you really nailed that one almost 23m amazing!!

[@RyanCrouser23]

Thank you! Keep up the good work! 💪

Ryan would've made a world class concrete guy, its a shame he decided to be the greatest shot putter ever..

Waiting for the wrapping and taping one..

[@murdomasterson5599]

How do you get the concrete mix right I tried to make a ring in my field with my dad but the end result was the surface was dusty and had no grip

[@RyanCrouser23]

Try to limit the water in the mix, I actually had to sand just a little bit because I had the same problem in the middle where I couldn’t reach as easily. I did that by myself so didn’t have video of it unfortunately.

[@fmgardiner7959]

Nice! You could always double-down on the moat and put some sharks in.

[@TimmyMack100]

Haha, love it, especially the muddy shots buried in the muck. This is the real life of a thrower. Was a fan already, (always a fan of greatness) but this moves you up another level Ryan...just saying did you know Thor was a red head, not blond?

[@odisis68]

Hey Ryan, Erich, really love these videos. Thank you so much! But could you lower the volume of the music and up the volume of the vocal audio?

[@jamesflaum8860]

Hey Ryan! Wondering if you could make a video talking about how you deal with aches and pains during the szn as well as how you prevent injury and taper for competition?

@Ryan do you eval gliders or just rotational throwers?

[@aswinlouis901]

What's ur practice throw best distance

[@akv9676]

As a beginner how many throw can i include in a day ?

[@maxmartindale6090]

I'd say 100 fulls after drills is a good number for a begginer or highschool thrower

[@RyanCrouser23]

I would recommend 25-40 throws a day, better to focus on quality over quantity

[@Plongle]

how do you clean your shoes?

[@samratdasbongfitness9339]

I am a glider I want to throw far , but I have not proper guidence, I throw 14m only

[@bjf5027]

Once you hit 24m with the crouser slide, will you continue to throw shot or switch to disc??

[@uzoegbeogu9617]

You seem just as good a cement mixer as you are a shot putter 😁

[@jasonmaciejczak5374]

I got fouled 2 times in a really big meet with big throws because my toe is coming out of the ring in the back. Any tips to fix idk what to do. Trying to break that 60 ft barrier

[@codislife3095]

If you were to full send on a stand throw how far would it go? I'm curious how much distance elite level throwers pick up from the rotation

[@RyanCrouser23]

Right now maybe 20m

[@samnochbaum2376]

Please spent me one of the bad one… there are all good enough to win the Austrian shot´s

[@andrewhardwick8515]

Why did you switch up your starting stance in your throw?

[@RyanCrouser23]

It’s kind of funny, I used to throw left foot on center but when everything closed in spring 2020 I trained off of plywood for 5 month so had to go to a center straddle start and now moving back to center

@@RyanCrouser23 Wow, the mud / rain is just like Oregon

[@tommyromanowski]

How do I get better at using my right foot when I finish the throw? I don’t twist it enough and the shot ends up flying flat

[@RyanCrouser23]

Practice the sequencing turning the foot then the knee then the hip in slow motion to train that neural pattern

[@bjf5027]

Quick question. Is it a foul if your midfoot touches the top of the ring in the back of the circle? I only ask because I see a lot of pro's do this, but I have never seen it called.

Toop bro❤

[@chuckcedar8650]

Hey I’m a freshman but I qualified for a big conference meet on Friday. I’m nervous because I haven’t been doing the best. If you have any tips it would be awesome. Wish me luck!

[@RyanCrouser23]

Just go out there and have fun take a deep breath before each throw and relax and execute like practice, these last few practices focus on quality over quantity

[@donfilkins298]

I'm a masters thrower . 68 years old. but how often do you work with a heavier shot?..... does it help to get stronger in the movement?

[@RyanCrouser23]

It can definitely help with specific strength, but if you go too heavy that you have to change your technique to throw it then it becomes more detrimental

[@hagopcatchatoorian1132]

I threw like 5 feet over my pr at the last meet of the season my first time spinning and fouled it, and now I’m throwing like 4 feet below my pr in practice for no damn reason :/. Discus is going good tho

[@RyanCrouser23]

One of the toughest things is to come back after a monster throw like that, just relax and let the big throw happen, don’t put extra pressure on yourself trying to recreate that one throw

While throwing you breathe out or in

Breathe in at the start, hold through the throw and exhale at release

Yes. Look up John godina

Yeah, very difficult to do especially for Team USA but it is possible

[@joonstape601]

Yes Sir, In Team USA all are super elites. You are the one with a realistic chance in winning medal in both disciplines. But shot put competition is the tough now. Al most 8 men can throw 22 + now.
