Javelin Throw Techniques and Key Elements Explained

Javelin throwing is like throwing a spear really far.

First, you hold the javelin in different ways called grips.

Then you run, getting faster, and cross your legs to get ready to throw.

Next, you push off your right leg and twist to build power, like a spring.

Finally, you plant your left leg, and throw, aiming at the right angle to make the javelin go as far as possible.

It takes strong legs and a good throw to get it far!
