Polypropylene throwing truncheon for FTM training.

 


I have come up with yet another creative training aid for FTM throwing : Polypropylene throwing truncheon. I tried the item out at a local park the other day. It works well for this new purpose. The truncheon rotates during flight. It's best to throw it overhand and to throw it horizontally or sideways.

Unfortunately, I lost my truncheon. I think someone walked off with it. It was my mistake for not being mindful of where the truncheon had landed. I bought the truncheon from Playwell martial arts, UK. They have great products at good prices. I will buy another one in a few months time. I can then add a video to show how it works as a throwing training aid.

Here is a Youtube video which shows a man throwing an African throwing stick. He does an overhand throw. The stick rotates during flight. This is how my polypropylene truncheon rotates during flight too.

Here is a PDF I had written up on Polypropylene throwing truncheon.

A FTM - Frisee that much session from earlier today.

  I had a good session of FTM earlier today. I went to the local park by myself as usual. I took one of my Wham O frisbees and 2 of my ultimate discs plus my Nerf American football and my Aerobie rocket ball and my Cold Steel Brooklyn slammer bat, and my Elders polypropylene rounders bat. Unfortunately, I lost one of my rounders balls. I had a baseball with me too. Luckily I didn't lose that one. I will be more careful next time. I saw 2 young guys exercising on the calisthenics bars. I approached them and I asked if one of them could take a quick video of my doing my Bat a bing exercise. I asked them because I saw one of them taking a pic of his friend exercising. The guys were nice enough to help. I showed them the Brooklyn slammer bat. They were impressed with the look and the feel of the bat. I offered them a try of the Bat a bing exercise. They both tried it. They both had good hits. I let them know about FTM and my site and blog for FTM. One of the guys looked my site up on h

Muscular strength required for Bat a bing.

  In the top photo, you see me after I had just hit a baseball with my Cold Steel Brooklyn slammer bat, using my Bat a bing exercise. Bat a bing requires muscular strength in order to hit the ball properly. As you can see in the photo, I am quite muscular. Here is a link to the Bat a bing exercise I had done on July 7th 2023. https://www.instagram.com/p/CuZkz-ILaFk/ The photo above is a still frame from the Bat a bing hit I had done for my video as mentioned above. You can hear the whack of the ball too. My RI 22 athletic smart pills give me an extra edge for my Frisee that much practices.
