quite a few wrist, elbow and shoulder when throwing the javelin itself then in the run up you have the ankle, knee, hip. Your spine also plays a part in it as well
The mustles are the ones that are in the hip thrust...
Hamstrings, hip abductors, rectus femoris(one of the quadriceps muscles) and hip flexor.
you use your toe muscles ,thigh ,hip if you using dumbbells all muscles get involved
Using an exercise bike works your glutes and hip flexors, plus leg muscles.
The muscles used in the leg press exercise are your Quads primarily. Hamstring gets a good work out too.

Hip flexor is a common name for the quadriceps, the large thigh muscles involved in both straightening the knee and bending the hip.
Collectively known as the iliopsoas or inner hip muscles: Psoas majorPsoas minorIliacus muscleAnterior compartment of thighRectus femoris (part of the quadriceps muscle group)SartoriusOne of the gluteal muscles: Tensor fasciae lataeMedial compartment of thighPectineusAdductor longusAdductor brevisGracilis
The gluteus medius muscle is the primary muscle(major abductor) responsible for the hip abduction, with the Gluteus Minimus assisting. The synergist muscles are the psoas, piriformis, Tensor Fascia Latae (TFL), quadratus lumborum and rectus femoris. The muscles acting in the hip abduction are: 1) Gluteus Medius 2) Gluteus Minimum 3) Tensor Fascia Latae (TFL) 4) Sartorius Hip abduction is one of the movements of the hip joint. From anatomical position with the knee forward, the whole leg is lifted literally away from the body. An increase in the range of movement is actually movement in the spine rather than in the hip joint. Selected Exercises are : side-lying leg raises, walking and running.
It depends on the kick, for example: a snap kick as is known in martial arts is made by contracting the quadriceps muscles very quickly with the hip flexed so the thigh is parallel to the floor.
