Hey all, newbie here, is there any links or can anyone describe the footwork for throwing the WOB?

Thanks

Lyle

  Yes, it's very simple. Start with feet a little more than shoulder width apart.... and leave them there, creating what is known as the "STAND"  and toss.

Hey there. I start with my left shoulder towards the bar about 4 steps from the bar. I cast the weight up towards the bar spin under it and then it's really kind of a shrug-throw from that position. If it goes over, raise the bar higher!
Yeah, those are all my kids. Same wife. Yes, there are eight.

This is demonstrated pretty well by Daryl's THIRTEEN YEAR OLD daughter Emily in pictures 63-77 from the Illinois Highland Games pics:

This sequence was the first I've seen that really demonstrates the motion well.
