Phase-by-phase break
Your shot put broken into the phases coaches grade. AI tells you which phase is costing you the most and why.
Shot Put form check on demand. Upload a clip of your shot put and AI flags every break in technique with priority tags, what's critical, what's minor, plus the drill that fixes each one. The same form-check feedback you'd post for online, private and immediate.
Your shot put broken into the phases coaches grade. AI tells you which phase is costing you the most and why.
When a coach says "your form is off," you don't always know where. AI marks the exact frame the error appears, with a coaching note attached.
Every flagged error comes with the drill that targets it. No generic homework, no guessing what to work on next session.
You'll see priority-tagged technique notes, the specific frames where the form breaks, and the drill that targets each issue. It's a full shot put form check in under a minute, the kind you'd pay an expensive remote coach for.

Each fault below is described two ways: how it looks on video (so you can recognize it on your own clips) and the drill or cue that fixes it. AI form check identifies these patterns in the same frames a coach would.
Your hips rotate ahead of your shoulders too soon, losing the 'wound spring' that drives the release.
Stand-throw drills with exaggerated hip-shoulder separation, and pause-and-throw drills to feel the tension.
Your non-throwing side bends or gives way during the block, flattening release angle and cutting distance.
Block-arm drills against a wall; heavy-band work to strengthen the deceleration pattern.
Your right foot lands late or open in the power position, breaking the transfer of momentum from drive to release.
Glide or rotational entry drills with a footwork-first cue; film footwork from above when possible.
Each phase has a coaching cue, a measurable target, the frames a coach pauses on, and the failure mode AI flags most often. Use it as a self-diagnostic checklist on every video.
Glide: stand at the back of the circle, low position, shot tucked at the neck. Spin: stand at the back facing away, shot tucked.
Glide: linear push off back leg, low and fast. Spin: rotational, moving across via 1.5 turns. Both end at the power position.
Both feet land in T position (right toe pointed away, left foot flat) simultaneously. Hips loaded; shoulders behind hips. Greater shoulder-hip separation in spin = elastic torque.
Hips lead, shoulders catch up, arm fires last (kinetic chain). Right leg drives up; left leg blocks. Trunk rotation velocity contributes ~40% of release velocity.
Hand pushes (not throws) the shot at optimal angle. Final segment of kinetic chain: hand and wrist.
Right and left legs switch positions to keep momentum from carrying the thrower out of the circle.
