The movement that the paper shall discuss is the throbbing throw The modern or Olympic hammer throw is an athletic throwing event where the object to be thrown is a heavy steel dinner dress attached with wire (maximum 4 ft (1.22 m) to a handle. (Farlex Inc., 2007, p.1) The objective of the feat is throwing the steel ball at the farthest distance. The two most important factors for a far throw be the angle of poke and the speed of the ball. (Farlex Inc., 2007, p.1)For an athlete, it is important for them to be aware of e really muscle movement that happens during the process of hammer throw. These var.s are important for a smooth transition of muscles from one stage to another to execute a mark and efficient movement. The next part will superiorlight the five phases mixed in hammer throw. In particular, the following phases will determine the relevant muscles involved in the process.The first phase involves the stance phase. on that point is minimal amount of movement in this phase that is why muscles remain at status quo. due(p) to the minimal amount of movement in this phase, the majority muscle position maintenance throughout the bole should be accomplished through isometric contraction. (www.mhhe.com/floyd16e, p.196)The next phase involves the preparatory phase. In hammer throw, concentrical contractions occur in their anatagonist muscles in this phase. (www.mhhe.com/floyd16e, p.196) The joints involved are the berm and elbow in which their actions represent a horizontal hyperextension and extension respectively. In addition, the agonists muscles involve in the process are posterior deltoids and latissiumus dorsi and triceps brachii (shoulder and elbow)The third phase talks a cycle the movement phase. It is the phase in which the summation of force is generated directly to the ball, sport, object, or opponent, and is commonly characterized by near-maximal concentric activity in the involved muscles. (www.mhhe.com/floyd16e, p.197) With hammer th row, this is the process wherein the person starts rotating the body which is called turns.You must try to utilize inertial forces of the hammer in the single by riding the ball and be passive with the ascending hammer, while avoiding activity with the pelvis and legs. (Larry, 2000, p. 1) In addition, After running through the high point of the hammer, you must complete the turn on the ball of the left foot by actively driving tail to double support as soon as possible. (Larry, 2000, p.1)The next phase involves the hit phase. In this phase, often referred to as the deceleration phase, the velocity of the body segment progressively decreases, usually over a wide range of motion. In the process of hammer throw, the joints involved are the shoulder and elbow. The actions involved are a horizontal flexion and flexion for the shoulder and elbow respectively. The agonist muscles involved in the process are (1) anterior deltoids and Pectoralis major for the shoulder and (2) biceps bra chii for the elbow.The last phase is the recovery phase. The recovery phase is used after follow through to regain balance and positioning to be fasten for the next sport demand. (www.mhhe, p.197) For hammer throw, the item-by-item after the follow through stage slowly goes back to status quo as both muscles in the elbow, shoulder, hips, and legs relax to prepare for the next throw.In the process of hammer throw, an individual might sustain an injury due to lack of stretching or failure to follow the prim process in hammer throw. Injuries related to hammer throwing include (1) strains, (2) cramps, (3) calf muscle injuries, (4) sprains and (5) elbow and shoulder muscle related injuries. Thus, it is very important for a hammer thrower to constantly warm up for the sport and at the same time follows effectively every step mentioned by the coach for injuries to be prevented.ReferencesBrainmac.

His jobs vary from createing in a cubicle in his early year to train high school sports teams to now teaching and coaching the water polo team at Santa Ana College. His life stories have had a vastly large impact on me, he made me realize that life is not al bearings to the highest degree gold, although with it life would be a lot easier, but all you really need is people and things you love and your set.What I really enjoyed bout having him in the class was that he made you listen but not in the way an average out teacher would he made you intrigued in whatever it was he was talking about. Although I dont want to ferment a teacher later in life he made me rethink this. Response to Brian I agree with Brian I have put a lot of thought into becoming a teacher/coach but never knew what to teach/coach and who for.Mr. Reyes has shed some light and has really been make me think hard, asking myself if teaching is actually what I want to do with my life. Have little money but be content with what Im doing, impacting kids lives in such a way that they dont even know, it sounds just about equally awarding to me.My high School basketball coach/Spanish teacher has changed my life in so many ways, from being captain of her basketball teaching me the importance of teamwork, dedication and hard work can take you a long way to my teacher making me work hard. She was also very close to me I considered her more as a friend in ways she was always face out for me, driving me to go to college, finding me a place to live. If I change someones life the way she has c hanged mine I know life will be amazing.
