How to Throw Shot Put: Punch Drill

The shot put punch drill is used to teach the athlete how to properly block with the left arm, using a left to right exchange. Power balls as seen this video can be used or five or ten pound plates. Focus on pulling the left arm and fist to the armpit and as that happens, punch the right side exchanging left to right.
