What Do You Get?
The Throws U Elite Training Program for shot put and discus throwers is a specialty built program written exactly like the programs we make for our national and world-class throwers, from the high school to post-collegiate level.
Throwing Prescription
Stop guessing on what you should be throwing! We will provide you with the optimal implement weights to throw, the types of throws to take, and how many throws to take per session. We have specific prescriptions for shot and disc throwers, shot only, and disc only throwers.
Weightroom Program
Our strength program will build you incredible strength with exercises and set/rep schemes that we have tested and proven on our national and world-class throwers. The strength program follows our yearly periodization scheme to optimize your development at each stage in the year.
Weightlifting
Every world-class thrower is proficient in weightlifting. We incorporate the snatch, clean, and jerks into our programs as the primary method of developing explosive power while fine-tuning your technical ability, mobility, and balance.
Special Strength
Special strength is our term for drills and strength exercises that correlate directly to the throw. Discover new exercises that will improve your technique while simultaneously building strength.
Mobilty
Improving mobility is one of the underutilized aspects of training among throwers. Improve your range of motion and power output with our thrower specific mobility exercises. In addition, we provide warmups for both throwing and lifting!
Yearly Periodization
Each program you buy fits precisely into our yearly plan
We design each of our programs based on our yearly periodization chart. Our periodization plan follows an undulating volume/intensity curve that we have dubbed “Parabolic Periodization”. The plan will take you through the pre-season and competitive season for the typical high school and collegiate track season in the United States.
In Parabolic Periodization, as volume raises, intensity lowers, and vice versa. This allows recovery and adaptation to occur in one system while the other system continues to develop. At the beginning of the year and off-season, training trends towards higher volume. Conversely, towards the end of the year and the competitive season, training trends towards higher intensity before the final peak in preparation for championship season.
