The Problem: Too Much Weight in Front
When your weight drifts forward, your throwing arm is forced
to work overtime to compensate for poor balance, you lose your natural ability
to aim, and you pull your throws.
Because your lower body can’t contribute fully and your arm
ends up doing all the work, your power production drops, and you increase
stress on your shoulder and elbow.
This “weight-forward” mistake creates inconsistency and makes
accurate throwing feel harder than it should.
The Solution: Keep Weight on the Back Leg
The foundation of consistent, powerful throwing is centering
your weight between your feet with a slight bias toward the back leg, keeping your
body stable, and allowing your throwing arm to move freely and efficiently.
To store energy and stabilize your upper body, you stand with
your feet shoulder-width apart, your weight favoring your back leg, and, as you
begin your throwing motion, maintain that back-leg emphasis.
You shift your weight forward only as you throw, letting your
legs and hips power the movement rather than your arm, and you land on a
balanced front side with a relaxed follow-through.

or we’ll work with you to consistently hit your target, no questions asked.
