I’m not taking 1-on-1 coaching calls anymore. For years I sold them — one athlete, one hour, one set of cues at a time. The work was good but the math was bad. There were always more kids who needed help than I could ever get to on a call.

So I sat down and wrote everything I used to teach on those calls into a short book. Mindset, strength, shot put technique, discus technique, how to practice, how to compete on meet day, what college coaches and recruiters actually want to see, and what to do with your off-season. Ten years of coaching, compressed into something you can read in a weekend and use at Monday’s practice.

I called it Throw Far. It’s only $9.99.

What’s In It

Eight chapters, all of them practical. Every chapter ends with drills and “coach’s tips” you can take to the next practice — not vague advice, but specific things to try.

• The Mindset of a Thrower — separating your identity from your PR, and how to play the long game
• Build Your Foundation — the five lifts that matter most, plus sleep, hydration, and habit stacking
• Shot Put Fundamentals — glide vs. rotational, the key positions, the four mistakes I see every week
• Discus Fundamentals — grip, wind-up, the stable turn, and the release angle most kids get wrong
• Practice Like a Pro — how to structure a session, plus the four-question journal that changes seasons
• The Mental Game on Meet Day — pre-meet routines, the “one cue” rule, and resetting
• What Coaches Actually Want to See — coachability, body language, and what recruiters look at
• The Off-Season Advantage — the three-month rebuild that turned my senior year around

I’m Vlad. I was a four-year Division I shot put and discus thrower at William & Mary, and I’ve spent the last decade running TheTrackSpikes.com and coaching throwers from across the country. This book is the distilled version of all of it.

It’s a $9.99 PDF, delivered instantly to your inbox after checkout. Read it on your phone, tablet, laptop, or print it out and put it in a binder. If you don’t think it’s worth nine bucks, email me within 30 days and I’ll refund you, no questions asked.
