There are six keys movements of the discus throw: wind up, move in rhythm, balance, right leg engine, orbit, and delivery. The wind up is important aspects of the throw, because its set the tone for the entire throw. The wind up is both mental and technical. It is mental because the wind up sets you up for the rest of the throw. The following are the technical aspects: flat right foot, on the ball of your left foot, keep your weight evenly distributed between your feet, and do not over do it (being overly active can result in the waste of energy). Although the wind up sets the tone for the entire throw, the rhythm of the throw is the most important aspect. It is necessary to move in rhythm through out the entire throw. The best throwers contain the same amount of time in each phase while completing a great throw. Focusing on rhythm can bring about the consistency to get in the right positions that many throwers lack. To execute a sound discus throw with solid technique,it requires perfect balance. Due to the throw being a linear movement, combined with a one and a half rotation, and an implement at the end of one arm, a good discus thrower needs to maintain balance within the circle.

∙ 12y agoThe basics of disc golf are really quite simple, as it is played in much the same manner as regular golf.
Eighteen "holes" make up a disc Golf course, and each of these holes has a "par" assigned to it, depending on how difficult it is. Each hole is started by throwing your frisbee down the fairway, and each hole is finished when you throw your frisbee into the receptacle at the end. You keep track of your score the same way you do in regular golf - marking how many throws over or under par you are for each hole throughout the course.
