"Experience how world-class throwers train!"
What's Included?
2 Throwing Sessions Per Day
During each throwing session we will receive direct instructional coaching on your technique. You will take 30-40 full throws, honing in on tangible improvements that you can make. No endless hours of bodyweight drills!
Olympic Lifting Technique
We will teach you the basics of the Olympic Lifts (the snatch, clean, and jerk) if you don't know them, or fine-tune your technique if you already incorporate them into your lifting!
Full Strength Building Workouts
Each day we will put you through one of our best strength building workouts. We will alternate between upper body and lower body lifts, making you feel the burn but still ready to attack the next throwing session.
Video Review of Your Technique
Dane will do in-person technical analyses of your throws. He will break down your technique and give you cues to work through during your next session!
Special Strength Exercises
We will show you our best special strength exercises that combine technique development with strength building that will directly corelate to further throws!
Mobility Exercises
What is the best way to recover from hard lifts and long throwing sessions? We will break down how we approach mobility and the huge impact it can have on your throws.
Instructional Lectures
We use the term "lecture" loosely. Dane does not make his presentations boring. However, you will learn exactly what it takes to become champion and achieve more than you dreamed possible as a thrower.
Add 5 Feet In Days
What can just a few days do for your throwing distance? Just ask the throwers who PR'd by 5 feet or more at the competition after our last camp!
Getting a different perspective on your technique with hands on coaching can make the difference between making the same mistakes for the next 6 months or fixing them now starting to PR again!

COVID-19 Precautions
Our county (Berks) in Pennsylvania is in the "green" stage which permits the holding of summer camps. However, we will still be following guidelines to reduce the risk as much as possible to prevent the spread of the disease and ensure the safety of all campers and staff. These precautions are based on recommendations from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) as described in full HERE:
-
For all campers and employees: if you are feeling sick, please stay home. If you become sick do not attend the camp, we will refund the camp cost in full.
-
If you have come in contact with anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19 recently, please stay home and we will refund the camp cost.
-
Make handwashing and hand sanitizing a regular occurrence. We will have hand sanitizer available, but please bring your own if you are able.
-
Although we will not require you to wear a mask, you are more than welcome to wear one if you prefer to.
-
After you are finished using any piece of equipment, you must wipe it down with a disinfectant wipe.
-
The weight room at our location is open-air, with large garage doors on both sides of the training area allowing air to pass through.
