I will probably look to re-test in 48 hours so it makes sense to drop the weights and leave only the explosive exercise. I’m really pessimistic, this hasn’t been an enjoyable program because my expectations were set so high. Unless I start throwing close to 30 metres this is a failure to me, but then again if it was that easy to improve everyone would be doing it.

21 Mar

Throw Ins (Session 30.1) – median 19.15m
Throw Ins (Session 30.2*) – median 21.6m

*The second set of 10 were with a 5 metre run up compared to my standard 2.5m

That pretty much concludes this experiment but I might try a few sets next week with a progressively longer run up as I’m curious what effect I’d see.
