The document discusses coaching lessons for the discus throw, focusing on the turn. It describes how the athlete pivots on the left foot as the body rotates towards the throwing direction, with the discus trailing behind and the legs rotating ahead of the shoulders. Key muscles involved include the biceps, triceps, deltoids, pectoralis major, latissimus dorsi, subscapularis, teres major, erector spinae, rhomboids, trapezius, gluteus, quadriceps, hamstrings, gastrocnemius, and core muscles like the abdomen. Biomechanical principles discussed include the laws of inertia, projectile motion, momentum, and motions.

9. THE TURN
• The athlete’s body weight pivots around the
left foot as the athletes rotates on the balls
of the feet toward the direction of the throw.
• The discus trails behind the body.
• The athlete runs across the ring with the legs
rotating ahead of the shoulders and discus
arm.
• Places the both feet in the throwing stance as
quickly as possible.
