Hey coach, Quick question do we bend or elbow once we hit our block or do we bend the elbow further down?

Hard to answer that. Elbow bend can vary depending on the style of throwing. I prefer a longer, loose arm with a little bend like Vetter and Backley.

Definitely learn the fundamentals and practice them a lot. Don’t try to throw far but rather focus on building specific skills. Watch this video and work a specific skill until you are consistent then move on to the next. How to throw the javelin in under 10 minutes kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpiVdHuqbNCrh5o

Hello coach, 🙏 While throwing, using Finnish grip, at the point of release my index finger comes at top of the grip displacing my middle finger ( it becomes american grip in a way). Can you please help.
@coachhalley6 ай бұрын
I recommend being more intentional with your release. Spend more time at practice working on shorter throws with your mind focused on how the javelin comes off your fingers. If your middle and index fingers are touching, you'll be able to use both middle and index finger to roll/spiral the javelin. If you need something artificial to keep the fingers together, use athletic tape (not too tight) just at the first segments of your index and middle finger (proximal phalanx). Sometimes just working on one specific skill for a bit will help you acquire it more quickly. Hope this helps.

@@coachhalley Thank you coach and one more advice needed, can you please suggest something for elbow pain during throw ( I think that it will get strengthen with time by doing regular packingwith javelin, will it or I should do some particular exercise.)

Definitely check with a physical therapist to get specific program for elbow issue. If you can throw, work on staying relaxed and the javelin in a good position. Maybe some good things to consider in this video for avoiding elbow issues: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4DCi2CGmNZpfqcfeature=shared
