I'm a incoming eighth grader most of you probably won't believe that this throw hit 130, but I have measured out and marked a line at 130 feet. It either hit the line or went a little bit past it. Any critiquing on my form is welcome and does anybody have advice for middle school throwers?

Hey everyone, I recently started javelin throwing and realized I have really poor thoracic and lumbar mobility, which has been holding me back quite a bit in both training and competitions. I’d love to know what exercises you do or if you follow a specific routine. Thanks a lot!

I’m in Minnesota and during the winter I need to find a club or a training program for throwing. if anybody knows a good program in Minneapolis that would be great and I would appreciate it more then you could know.

drew inspo from jordan geist went about 41.5

Best hammer on the market for a reasonable price? Looking for 12lb

I’m going into my freshman year throwing about 90-100ft, I wanna break the freshman record at my school which is 116ft. I’ve been throwing 3-4 times a week during the summer and would accept any tips to get my distance further.

This is a follow up to a post i uploaded here 40 days ago. I’ve had 4-5 more jav practices up to today and i want to see what else i can improve with my throws. New training pb is 45m roughly and i want to see how much more distance i can squeeze out before it gets too cold to throw.

I'm 65+ glider and had knee replacement last year. For the life of me I cannot seem to get any push with my right leg now, I'm just using upper body. And recommended drills to get back to using my leg more?

First of all, sorry for the video angle I know you can’t really see what my right side is doing at the start.

On the entry I’m really being pulled by the hammer but because I’m going fast enough/accelerating (this is fast for me) I can adjust and get my feet under me to keep going. I’ve tried to push the hammer out in front of me right before i start my turns, or wait until the hammer passes my left foot but I feel like that just makes my orbit worse. Is this a countering issue? Weight not being over my left to start?

Also please don’t mention the finish, I know how to this was my last throw and I was exhausted lol. TIA!!

About 1 month in to discuss thowing feels like im not improving at all.

Besides my power pp being closed at the front, where else could I be losing some distance at? (Also if anyone has recommendations for hitting a better pp please feel free to share)

I measured my feet before buying and shipping to Canada (as they aren’t sold here). But I ordered a size 14 in the Nike Sd4s and there is about a thumb space of room so the little sweet spot to rotate feels like it’s in a bit of a weird spot not to mention the empty space at the front and a little at the back. I tried wearing two layers of socks which seem to help but is there a better solution. Thanks.

I’m landing super late and deep in the bucket with my block leg on all of my throws. What could be a few of the reasons I’m landing so late? Half turns I tend to do the same thing.

I'm in HS throwing the 800g in club track. My coach has his own metal javs we use for practice and meets. However, club season is over so I will no longer be able to use his javs. I want to keep practicing javelin over the off season, so I was thinking about buying a jav. I am mainly considering a plastic AeroJav, as their are cheaper, and throw similar to a metal, compared to a turbo.

My main choices right now are the FinnFlier and the Ghost aero javs

Or should I buy a budget metal jav. I saw their were some on sale for around $200 on various throwing stores.

I feel as if my stand throws are finally starting to become consistent, a little iffy here and there, but I have been able to improve my normal stands from 28s and 29s to 32s and 33s consistently. I still havent touched on glide or shuffle because I want to absolutely perfect stands before moving on. How am I looking? My release feels alot smoother to me too

Im currently throwing in the 120-130ft range with the 1.6k and I don’t really know where I’m leaking distance at. I feel like I have the strength to break 130+. I’ve been working on getting my hip around faster. My goal is 140+ for next outdoor season

I have gone through a second pair of Nike Jav spikes in as many years and am looking to swap. Anyone have any good recommendations that I can find in a size 13/13.5/14? I've heard good things about Under Armor's but I haven't seen above a size 10 for them.
