    Rick’s super simple 500’ throw

    I have no clue, and I'm not being sarcastic... NO CLUE how to quantify the benefit of late acceleration vs total system, but I will say that I see a consistent struggle in beginner -> advanced players of blowing off the disc prior to getting the pendulum boost. Some of that is clearly timing /...

    Rick’s super simple 500’ throw

    Ricky gets a huge ejection multiplier in his extension. Makes it looks so casual because it all accelerates in the last 2-3 frames. I measured the distance of the disc per frame - and it really shows where the speed multiplier starts to hit and why it's so important to move slow enough through...

    Running and physical fitness

    Thank you, still grinding in the gym. Cutting some weight now, I was up to 195 and felt strong, but I was eating a TON to pack it on. I'm down to 187-190 depending on the day, and I can actually jog a mile without it hurting too much. First year or two, gains came pretty easy. Now it's a real...

    Running and physical fitness

    I've finally connected my weight lifting with throwing in a way that is actually increasing my power - and the key for me was increasing my scapular mobility. I was getting much thicker and more muscular through my shoulders and traps - but my mobility was just terrible, causing my power to be...

    Hip flexibility & strength exercises

    I can't say that I have any sort of "leg to stand on" (thank you, thank you) with regards to flexibility - but over the course of the last 12 months I've amped up my work outs to 6 days a week and put on about 12 pounds of mass. I've added 2 exercises that my friend who was a long drive...

    Snap, crackle, & pop: smooth vs. jerks in form

    Definitely worth putting some parameters around the type of redirection (jerking) that we're describing. There are increasing levels of tendon bounce the deeper you load the disc to center chest when the disc starts to accelerate, depending on a ton of factors. But there is also generically...

    Running and physical fitness

    Agree: "older" lifter for me, means that I really shoot for 10-12 rep sets. I'm forcing my son (and myself) to really think of some exercised like deadlifts, hamstrings and squats as a year long entry process. He hates to lift less than he knows he can, but I'm not interested in injury because I...

    Running and physical fitness

    Thanks, I can honestly say that it's super helpful to have my son being motivated to work out, because getting to the gym at 6:45am doesn't always sound like a good idea. We're doing a 3 day cycle: 1. Chest / Tri / Abs 2. Back / Bi / Forearms 3. Legs / Deadlifts / Shoulders / Abs (this day...

    Running and physical fitness

    I always like seeing a thread that I posted in 4+ years back. I haven't continued running as I eventually hit a wall with distance that was causing real ankle pain because I'm old and have terrible flexibility and quite a bit of arthritis from years of crack climbing. I have been lifting...

    Wrist bend on James Conrad

    pre-curl is most likely a physical cue to not start throwing the disc (or opening the forearm) too soon. Conrad gets the disc way deep into the right pec vs somebody like Ezra. zeKHPH1_wLg

    Andy has some big ole hands too (as does Stokely)... grip is crazy variable.

    SuperWookie Form Thread

    The results are going to be big for this, because you're setting up with an open plant that can only bow outward instead of firming up to transfer ground force up the body. In the early days of learning to close the plant foot it's a good idea to put your toe down first, then put your heal down...
