*Der Werferstark means The Throwers Strength in, sort of, German.
This is a vague reference to the throwing group I train with, the coach of which is nicknamed Der Spieemeister
Before You Begin. . . .
This site is designed as a practical reference to support your training and preparation as a Transplant Thrower, but it cannot replace the individual guidance of a knowledgeable coach or trainer.
If you do not currently have someone who can help, post a message in the GB Throws Team chat or directly to the Captain or Coach, we can normally help and there are usually others happy to answer a question, check an exercise or point you in the right direction.
The title of each exercise, stretch or drill is also a link to a demonstration showing how to perform it with good form. Take time to watch the example before trying the movement yourself.
