Brace Drills | How to FEEL the brace

[@Murwen]

Nice to see a version of the hammer drill featured on your channel! I'd just like caution everone from going out and buying a proper sledgehammer and throwing it one handed like at the start of this video. Unless you're quite athletic to begin with, a single handed hammer weighing around 350 grams or 3/4ths of a pound is enough to feel the forces involved! It's very easy to start big and end up with pain in your shoulders. It's really only after you've established trust in your movements that you should move up to a heavier hammer.

[@Corrigan65_]

I like this guy. Forget about disc golf We need more of people like you in the world.

[@michaelcushman]

Thanks for showing more than one method. PENDULUM works well for recreational players, any age, any level of fitness. The more mass you have below, legs and butt, the more energy into a smooth throw. Pendulum does leak energy, when the front hip slides forward. Pros dont use it off the tee, but do use it for standstills and for hyzer bombs. The linear brace is the one for max distance. Ideally, the streached front leg pivots on the heel and the knee straightens after the back hip turns toward the target. This stops the pelvis. The energy then moves up the chain to the torso. The torso and head fly forward and transfer energy into the shoulder-arm whip. The upper body cant disconnect from the lower body, so that is the final "stop" and final energy tranfer. The linear version requires lower body power-speed, mobility while taking a big stride, balance throughout, and perfect timing. Nothing but hard work, training, and years of practice will do if you want to master the linear brace like a pro. Aspirational in my case. PDGA 308.

Dude I can’t thank you enough. The sliding across the floor analogy opened my eyes to how to better engage the hips and brace properly. I can’t wait to get out to the course and try this! You guys are awesome

[@austingreen2463]

Love seeing Mikey bounce back from the brace. I like the idea that progress in correct brace technique will "spring" the body backwards.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

I see some concern about knee health (mostly from back leg guys) but it is worth mentioning. The number 1 rule of disc golf is if it hurts, stop. If you are hurting your knee you probably aren’t transitioning energy correctly so get some supervision. The leg should not be twisting while there is a lot of weight on it. It pivots after the initial plant to keep the knee from twisting.

[@augustprice7550]

Back leg guys concerned about your knee health from learning to brace the way the knee was designed to take force? Or are they concerned about their knee health after trying to twist their hips into their planted front foot and blowing out their IT band?

[@robwaelchli1063]

Was just going to comment on that because in your step 2 and 3 I don't see your right foot rotating around. If kept like that one would hurt their knee. I actually have that problem now. Question I have for you is when does the right foot start to move around to avoid injury but also maintain the most power? I am toying around with it and my timing is all wrong and off on it. Thanks.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

@@robwaelchli1063 I’m not throwing very hard at all so there’s not much energy left to pivot in step 2 and 3. I’d have to have forced it. When you start pushing up off the front leg the hip lifts and weight is towards the heel. This allows the foot to rotate naturally. Usually around the time the disc is moving out of the pocket into the hit or right around the hit.

[@beenschmokin]

Exactly why this old way is obsolete and never should have been promoted in the first place. It's like the words they use. Someone wanted to be original and not physiologically correct. There is nothing athletic about it. The sport has changed into a sport over a fat dad's hobby. I have played since '99. This old crap has blown out my knee and 3 other people I know. Let's see how far our body will turn on a 1 plane pivot joint... I played every sports my entire life and only got hurt playing disc golf because the front leg hard stop. Slingshots for everybody.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

@@beenschmokin plenty of other sports that utilize this mechanic. It’s just a tough motion especially when done wrong. But soccer, golf, baseball, and tennis are a few sports that come to mind. This is not an obsolete motion. Also, Slingshot throws from the front leg.

Brace yourselves, discs incoming.

[@dangreen3844]

Cool. As someone with next to no brace until recently, the thing that really helped for me was consciously directing forward momentum towards my left butt (I'm a lefty) and upper back left thigh. Focusing there seems to automatically lead to the shift from toe to heel, and then pivoting on the heel. Definitely worked better than thinking about 'crushing the can'

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Left butt to target during coil phase, right?

[@dangreen3844]

Yes, exactly - and then as a kind of focal point in the power pocket and hit. If 'engage the hips' means anything for me, it's moving torso mass into that specific point. And somehow, it helps me get onto the heel without thinking about it, and for the heel to become that anchored pivot. I was also worried about my left knee with heel pivoting - that the front half of my left foot wouldn't clear the ground and would jam in the ground but that hasn't happened at all. @@OverthrowDiscGolf

[@MichaelSweet-nn5bg]

Back in 1996 when I started throwing, my friend and I downloaded MP4 files of Scott Stokely throwing different throws, and tried to replicate it. I figured out that I would need a weight to learn the proper arm motions. (The terms like Brace and Power Pocket, etc. had not been invented yet.) So I bought a five pound weight plate at Walmart for about $5. What I came up with is very, very similar to what you are doing with the sledgehammer. The weight plate has the advantage of being almost the same size as a golf disc. I am curious if you picked one up what the comparison would be to your sledgehammer drill.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

I’ve used weights as well!

@@OverthrowDiscGolf so curling the wrist in under the elbow in the power pocket. Can you show actual results in distance to prove it has merit?

[@McDroogy3]

How does someone know which brace method (vertical vs horizontal) would work best? Is it trial and error, start with vertical then move to horizontal when muscles are developed enough, or something else? I know the answer might be try both and see which works better, but I also noticed from ace it’s recent video that some of the pros were more vertical when they were younger and now more horizontal, so I am wondering if horizontal is the highest level of bracing but vertical will work if can’t do the horizontal. Another alternative is that both are effective and anyone can do either. Also, is it that the horizontal is more efficient for transferring energy to disc compared to vertical.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

Mikey here. I do both vertical and horizontal braces. I’ve found that the vertical brace is easier on the body and generates very similar stats to the horizontal brace. However I think the horizontal brace might get slightly better results for distance. Just depends on what you value. I’ll let Josh give his input if he sees this and wants to give his thoughts but personally I can see the value in both.

[@itlnstln]

+1 to Mikey. Niether is necessarily objectively better, but one or both might be better for you. I like the horizontal brace for run ups since I tend to overshoot the vertical brace, but, like Mikey, I use the vertical brace for standstills since I'm not generating a ton of lateral motion to where the horizontal brace makes sense. For me, if I just step long, the horizontal brace just "happens," but for others, that could ruin the feel of the shot. Seabas22 seems to use the vertical brace for both, and that works well for him. It's about what *feels* right to you and gets you to a place of incorporating it into your throw without thinking.

[@KenRoberts-bl9lh]

How would you describe the angle of your feet when practicing the first method with the sledgehammer and disc? If 9 o'clock is facing camera, lead foot pointing toward 8 and back foot at 7?

[@seabas22]

I would start pointed at 9-10.

[@OverthrowDiscGolf]

The line formed by your feet points toward roughly 11:00 or about 20 degrees off target. Key word: “roughly”

[@SmarteeSteve]

I wasn't doing this at all and had no concept of it. Have tried for years to understand and believe concepts of bracing and timing. Thanks to you, sidewinder, Janni, Loopghost, Beto, I might one day throw well

[@beenschmokin]

Keep watching them and you'll never throw well. IMO many of these people still teaching the obsolete knee destroying method do not want people to get better. They are happy being a little better than beer gut dad bod and showing you how they do it will keep you in league with them. Many are mad the sport is leaving them behind. 17 year olds can throw 500+ feet and everybody is butt hurt. Disc golf has become a sport and athletes are taking notice. The days of over weight double knee brace cigarette smoking 38 year olds being the best are over. It's a sport now and not a fun past time. He who has the most fun does NOT win. Man with the lowest score wins and you get there by throwing athletic. Slingshot disc golf. IMO the only person showing the real and correct way to threw.

With enough energy in the throw it will pick up naturally

[@thompson222]

Dude, you should ask SlingShot backleg guy and show him how to brace. Dude is a magician turning the hips he does it with his backleg while backleg is in the air and running 10mph It's a secret method and magic. I wish everyone could brace with their backleg while backleg is in the air.

[@Corrigan65_]

Thing is what I'm, doing now is hips. up up down up. It's a challenge to get the hips down but that's my cue. hopefully my left hand is good. heel down head down weight shift and send it. The brace was an obsession of mine for past 2 years. Now it's kind of disappeared but I'm, happy we revisited this. There's still something there I need to come back to. Haven't learned how to brace. I think I' still screw it up

[@daemn42]

I think it's worth pointing out that the goal is not to stop for the sake of stopping, but to stop as a *result* of near total momentum transfer from body to disc. I play with a guy who runs up to the front of the pad, comes to a complete stop, and then throws. As far as I can tell he gets absolutely zero energy from the run-up. Best to avoid that way of thinking. Also if you take a look at slow motion footage of top pros (watch?v=psZKJcsgMY0) most of them do still carry a little momentum off the front of the pad.

[@McDroogy3]

Another way to think of it is like sliding on a hard court in tennis. While sliding on clay was something necessary, the sliding of hard courts that you see from high level tennis players is a product of moving so fast and stopping so suddenly that there isn’t enough friction to stop immediately. It is like having an old car pre antilock brakes. You go fast, slam brakes, and car skids. If the foot isn’t pivoting, it means that there is too much friction between foot and pad. The way to reduce the friction is to either lighten the force between foot and pad (vertical brace is pressing off the ground so in effect when brace is at peak, you are going to be somewhat lighter on the front foot) or if horizontal, have to apply more force than the friction can withstand. When Paul lost to Calvin last year in a playoff (Jonesboro I think), there was the image of the turf pad bunching up in front of Paul’s foot. Being on the heel reduces pressure on the toes, so friction is also reduced. One could also use a shoe with less friction, but that likely would be less safe and would result in an ineffective brace. Owen at Trebuchet disc Golf advocates for doing the moves barefoot or in socks, I definitely find that the pivot happens better that way. I wish I could generalize to in shoes on concrete, but I do think the barefoot on carpet or the hardwood floor with socks is a helpful way to figure out what is happening on front foot. If foot isn’t pivoting on heel, it may be that your weight is leaned too far in front of heel, which could be because of not staggering enough or opening the front foot before planting (both problems I have had and still have to some degree).
