If you think this is a gift or something to throw technically good, you wrong. It’s hard working. I don’t think that weightlifting is hard to do. This is stupid work, nothing else. Technique training is a very difficulty thing thats never ends, for nobody. there is no perfect technique out there but we must to try do it perfect. I know i have the luck to have a coach like my dad but in our group we are all coaches for our self. An athlete must be independent. You think why i’m so aggressive about this. I can tell you, this is a defamation for my sport if people says, It’s not matter where the low point is, when people just talk about the body movement and don’t cares about the hammer orbit, when people throws 15 throws a day and push 2000kg in the weightliftingroom in a day and after this they wondering “my technique is bad”. this people says with all that, “Our discipline is primitive” “Let’s go do shot put with the hammer”Think further • Sergej Litvinov Jr. • January 21st, 2011 at 7:15 · Reply • Hi ZACH • I don’t misunderstood you. Your position is an art to think. This is your phylosophie about all whats happens. Look i have no good genes. My mothers hight is 155cm and I start to throw hammer with 16 years and my weight was 55kg. Every body said to me that i have no chance to throw far, I have no gift for this and my father was one of them. We start to throw just for fun. After i was having big problems with that and i was understanding that my only chance to throw far is to learn more about technique than others do. With 20 years my highest weight was only 78kg and my power in the weightlifting room was very bad. I mean i was doing squad no more than 100kg. Now my weight is 98kg and my power is in the middle but this costs me a lot of descepline and time. I don’t believe in gifts. this is an art of thinking. • I don’t say that what i try to tell is “Simple”. It’s not matter for who, it’s hard for profesional and for beginners and for all other throwers and this is the point. you want a easy way to throw far? there is no easy way. Its hard reality. Or you understand how to throw far and you do it, or not. I just want to help you out because i love this sport and nothing alse.
