Watch as Coach discusses, and a thrower demonstrates the power position. This is a very important position as 70-75 percent of the discus release speed is generated here. The thrower must set the feet and have a good heel and toe alignment. The line from the right heel to the left toe is usually in the same direction as where the throw will go.
