Discus: Powerball Front Drill

This is a powerball front drill, a drill used in the discus performed from the discus circle. This drill teaches an athlete to work from the ground up, having proper balance and posture on the finish of the throw. The athlete should focus on turning their right foot, knee, hip, and then the arm with good timing and a solid left arm block with their fist to the armpit on the finish of the throw.
