Very concise explanations in all of your videos. Thank you. I am 70 years old now, but have been asked to introduce our local high school to javelin throw. These really help and I will be showing them in a classroom setting.

Thanks Thomas for sharing your knowledge so freely with us. I am 56 years old, taking up the javelin again after 40 years, to compete in Masters Athletics! I wish I had videos like this when I was learning as a teenager in Australia. We had no coaches, no books, no videos...nothing! Your videos are fantastic - well explained, friendly and super helpful!
