Barnes' record, which came on his second attempt, was 2 1/4 inches longer than the record set by East Germany's Ulf Timmerman in 1988. His six throws (71-10, 75-10 1/4, 73-11 3/4, 73-7 1/2, 73-3 1/2 and 74-8) are the greatest series in history. He averaged 73-10 3/4.

Written by Administrator

Thursday, 14 May 1998

The current Indoor and Outdoor World Record holder demonstrates his approach to rotational technique in the shotput. From back to front, the technique is broken down into phases where key concepts are revealed and illustrated. This video is a tremendous training tool providing many of Randy's actual competitive throws (74'11", 73'6", 72'4" plus many more) and training throws (79'2", 77'0" and more). "It's my hope that this video will be a great resource for improving your rotational shotput technique. It's loaded with throws from training and competition. These throws are used as my primary examples of body position and movement as we discuss specific areas of technique." *** Now shipping DVD copies only! *** Only $39.95 USD Order Now!
