What are the auxiliary exercises for shot put?

Shot put is a common sport. It is one of the competition events. We all know that the shot put can be divided into different weights. Many people have certain misunderstandings about shot put, thinking that shot put is just a sport to exercise arm strength. In fact, the ball can also exercise our leg strength. There are some auxiliary exercises in the process of exercise. So what are the auxiliary exercises of shot put!

Turn your back to the throwing direction, turn your torso and shoulder girdle to the right, lean your upper body forward (depending on your leg strength), put your weight on your right leg, extend your left arm and shoulder forward and slightly inward. The pushing action is the same as the technical part.

Preparatory posture before sliding

Do one or two pre-swings before sliding. During the pre-swing, bend your left leg naturally, swing your thigh upward steadily with force, straighten your right leg, and bend your upper body forward. Bend your left arm slightly and extend it forward or let it hang down and slightly inward, keeping your head and back in a straight line.

High Posture

After holding the ball, stand with your back to the throwing direction inside the circle near the back edge, with your feet front and back, about 20-30 cm apart, with the right toe close to the inner edge of the throwing circle (the foot can also be turned slightly inward), the left leg behind and naturally bent with the sole or toes of the foot touching the ground, the upper body upright and relaxed, the left arm naturally raised, and the weight falling on the straight right leg.

Low posture

Holding the ball, stand with your back to the throwing direction, near the back edge of the circle, with your feet about 50-60 cm apart (depending on your height and the degree of squatting). The left foot is behind, with the forefoot or toes touching the ground, and the right toe close to the circle pointing in the opposite direction of throwing (the foot can also be slightly turned inward). Let your left arm hang naturally, your left shoulder slightly inward, your legs bent, and your upper body bent forward.
