What are the shot put training methods for primary school students?

Among many competitions, shot put is one of the sports that is popular among many young people. There may be some misunderstandings about the world, thinking that shot put only needs to exercise the arms. In fact, shot put is a whole-body sport that also requires our legs to exert strength. So the editor below will explain to you, what are the shot put training methods for primary school students?

Holding and carrying the ball

★Separate the fingers of the hand holding the ball naturally, place the ball on the base of the index finger, middle finger and ring finger, and support the thumb and little finger on both sides of the ball (picture) to prevent the ball from sliding and facilitate control of the direction of the ball. The palm of your hand does not touch the ball.

★After holding the ball, face the left side of the body towards the throwing direction, with the feet slightly wider than the shoulders, and the left toe pointing diagonally forward and in a straight line with the arch of the right foot; bend the right knee, tilt and twist the upper body to the right, with the center of gravity on the right leg; bend the left arm slightly in front of the chest, so that the vertical line of the ball leaves the outside of the right foot, so as to lengthen the force distance and tighten the left muscles.

When pushing the ball, push the ground with your right foot quickly and forcefully, lift your heel, turn your right knee inward, and push your right hip forward to lift your upper body to the left and rotate in the direction of throwing. When the left side of the body is almost perpendicular to the ground, use the left shoulder as the axis, quickly straighten the right leg, turn the body in the direction of throwing, straighten the chest and head, push the right shoulder forward with force, and quickly straighten the right arm to push the ball forward and upward at an angle of about 40-42 degrees (picture). When the ball leaves your hand, use your wrist to exert force and use your fingers to flick the ball. While pushing the ball, push your left leg upward with force to increase the forward and upward force of the shot put. After the ball is shot, the right leg quickly exchanges with the left foot, and the left leg is raised backward to lower the body's center of gravity and cushion the forward force to maintain body balance.

The above is a detailed answer to the shot put training method for elementary school students. After my explanation, I believe everyone has a full understanding of this sport. Shot put also requires strength in the legs, so shot put will actually have the effect of losing weight. For such a whole-body exercise, we can do it frequently. In addition, shot put can also correct the cervical spine.
