Over 5 different hour long sessions of practicing and completing different drills and the shot put technique a person would improve on the technique of throwing the shot put and afterwards would be able to throw the shot a considerable amount further.

Drills you could do to improve

You can practice the shot put technique using a lighter throwing object this can improve an athlete’s technique

Lift weights that are about the same weight as the shot put ball as this will get you used to the weight of the ball

Make a marked circle in the ground and then get the athlete to run in the direction of the circle without slowing down and then stopping with in the circle. This will help them stop almost immediately when they need to.
