Hold the javelin with your index and middle fingers on the back, and your thumb and ring finger supporting the sides. The grip should be firm but not tight for a smooth release.
Start with a balanced stance, feet shoulder-width apart. Your non-throwing side should be slightly forward. This stance sets the foundation for a powerful and controlled throw.
Extend your throwing arm fully behind you, then rotate your shoulder and hip, leading with your elbow for a clean release.
The run-up should be smooth and controlled, with a focus on maintaining speed and balance.
As you transition from the run-up to the throw, your body should be slightly angled back with your weight shifting from your rear foot to your front foot.
Release the javelin with a flick of the wrist and a strong push from the shoulder. The release should be at between 30-36 degrees angle to maximize distance and accuracy.
