In this video Erik Johnson from Arete Throws Nation ™ talk to throwers and coaches about how proper  "heel-toe" position in the shot put and discus, helps to line up the throw correctly, reduce sector fouls, and apply maximum power in the throw. 

All to often Heel-Toe is an easy thing to let slide in training because it’s pretty simple and easy to do, but sometimes throwers and coaches forget to ensure its set-up correctly. 

its important to realize the heel-toe position has a sweet spot. 

You can either can be too "open" or too "closed". 

The sweet spot is the  the ideal position where the delivery side heel and the block toe line up and the thrower has roughly, a six to eight inch space where the feet are lined up correctly for maximum power and efficient delivery. 

in this video we take a  quick look at why it's important and a good reminder to make sure it's done correctly. 

We hope you find this helpful.
