Throwing Season Starts Now!!

Well, now that the football season has ended (at least for Cams County High School,) we are shifting gears and turning our attention to throwing. We are starting with base, core strength lifts for the next 8 weeks, then we’ll shift to more Olympic style lifts in early January. We will start with fairly light weights and increase the amounts pretty quickly. We are also going to start working on foot speed drills and some explosive acceleration drills. We are lifting Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Throwing Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Right now it is just Jeff. We will increase the number of people throwing and lifting with us as we get closer and closer to February. I hope we gather a group of about 6 to 8 boys and girls to throw this year. We have pretty big plans for the year. We would like Jeff to place at State in the top three in Discus and top 8 in the Shot Put. It would be great to place even higher. Time will tell.
