Talks about staying low then pushing legs up during the throw. 700' Destroyers though.
I will say that maybe I do, maybe I don't 'see' him push up because his front knee stays bent. Subtle?
Yes, I think you can see the push against the collapse. If he was just remaining bent and "absorbing" all that momentum (and he takes a big run-up!), I bet he would topple over more, and his knee would bend more.He is pushing against the front leg collapsing. So yea, it's subtle when watching him do it, but I am certain it doesn't feel subtle at all.
Forces happen before we see motion happen. Head starts rising when heel plants. Front leg straight at release.Talks about staying low then pushing legs up during the throw. 700' Destroyers though.

Kristian didn't say to "stay low", but "dropping lower" to leverage/spring forward. Think of your legs as springs or pogo sticks against the ground.Screenshots and MS paint - I should have thought of that! So question? Are a lot of you thinking "stay low" during the backswing? I'm thinking "stay over toes" or "don't screw this up".

Need to put in a question after watched that distance video of staying low.
My xstep starting to be sloppy again and im falling over forward rotating on the toes kinde forget the weight shift from behind thing.
Not sure if i swing back to early or late.. but like what he said in the video disc stays with the rear leg keeps me thinking that i focus to much of the backswing and thats why its so hard with the timing..
Do you guys focusing to swing back with the arm or turning the shoulders or do they do that as a byproduct of pushing with rear instep/left buttcheek forward since the hips seems to turn by doing that? when i do that at home i can feel my shoulders turning at the same time while shifting the weight but not more then 9 a clock.
If thats the case do you have to focus the shoulder get the arm more straight after they turned to 9 to like 8 a clock instead? if u want that extra power ofc.
So in a xstep is the order like this:
When rear foot cross your front you have the disc in the middle of the chest and wait for pressure in rear leg weight to be infront of the rear leg then you push your lower spine/butt forward and shoulders turn at the same time then when the arm is almost straight and shoulders at like 9:30 your focus turning them a bit more right while the plant toes hit the ground then push the hips more forward so the heel goes down and the arm swinging forward or should your weight already been on the front leg and just focus put the heel down?
Lots of questions in one
He didn't say "staying low". Getting lower striding into the plant from a taller x-step. The x-step is much easier and efficient when you stay taller. It takes a hell of an athlete to crouch real low during the x-step.

If you're having trouble with your brace one of the common problems is that you're accelerating too early and fast in your throw which is causing your momentum and therefore hips to plow forward way to early. Late acceleration will help with your timing.
If you're falling forward and toe spinning I can guarantee you're coming through too fast, especially during the first half of your throw. You gotta slow things down a tad.
