The Swing Turn Drill

Entry to the first turn is made by rotating on the left toe pushing the hammer out to the left as wide as possible, maximizing the radius of orbit.

Hammer

The Swings

The swings should be attempted with the plane of orbit of the hammer as flat as possible and as bigger radius as possible. This is done by straightening the arms as the hammer swings in front of the athlete.
