Javelin

The current world record for javelin throw in men's category is 98.48 meters, set by Jan Železný from Czech Republic in 1996. In women's category, the world record is 72.28 meters, set by Barbora Špotáková, also from Czech Republic, in 2008.

The men's world record in the javelin throw is held by Jan Zelezny of the Czech Republic who threw the javelin 98.48 meters in 1996. The women's world record in the javelin throw is held by Barbora Špotáková of Czech Republic who threw the javelin 72.28 meters in 2008.

For a throw to be counted, three main criteria must be met. First, the thrower must not step past the line or toeboard and must stay within the lane for the duration of the throw. The throw is considered complete when the athlete has gained control of his motion, at which point the official will say "mark!" or "measure!" However, the throw itself must meet two other criteria; it must land within the vector lines and also must "stick," meaning the point must land in the ground. If any of the above are not met, the throw is considered a foul and is not counted. It should be noted, however, that in some competitions, such as high school, the throw may not have to "stick." In this circumstance, the throw is measured from where the handle of the javelin first contacted the ground, or from the tail if that hit the ground first. This can also be the case in some areas where the ground is very hard due to dry weather or cold, making it nigh impossible to stick a throw.

You don't play with it because it is dangerous.

The penultimate stride is the last step of your cross steps. It's more powerful and pronounced to allow you to land both feet in quicker succession as you throw. If you're right handed, your penultimate stride would be performed with your left foot. Thus, you would be pushing off of your left foot to land on right foot (your drive leg) and then your left leg once again (your block leg).

A track and field javelin is about 2.5 metres long.

It is called 'yabusame,' written in Japanese as: 流鏑馬

The three fouls that can occur when throwing the javelin are stepping out of the throwing area, failing to release the javelin before crossing the front edge of the throwing arc, and the javelin landing outside the designated sector. A throw is considered a foul if the athlete touches the ground outside the throwing area during their attempt. Additionally, if the javelin does not land within the marked sector, the throw is also invalidated.

Detailed rules differ by state, but here are some general rules. The thrower is forbidden from stepping out of the circle until the official gives him clearance. Some areas allow the thrower to step ON the line as long as he is not OVER the line, but in many areas stepping on the line disqualifies the thrower. The discus must land within the two lines that form the throwing sector. If it lands outside of the line, it is called a scratch-aka it doesn't count. This is another area where the rules change depending on where you are- in some places the throw will count if the disc lands on the line; in other places that throw would be a scratch.

800 and 600 grams respectively

To put it simply, the athlete who throws the javelin the farthest throw wins. If there is a tie, the person whose next best throw went the farthest wins. If still tied after this, then compare the third-best distance of the tied athletes and the athlete with the greatest third-best distance is awarded the higher place.

you should ask a coach for an example
There are six keys movements of the discus throw: wind up, move in rhythm, balance, right leg engine, orbit, and delivery. The wind up is important aspects of the throw, because its set the tone for the entire throw. The wind up is both mental and technical. It is mental because the wind up sets you up for the rest of the throw. The following are the technical aspects: flat right foot, on the ball of your left foot, keep your weight evenly distributed between your feet, and do not over do it (being overly active can result in the waste of energy). Although the wind up sets the tone for the entire throw, the rhythm of the throw is the most important aspect. It is necessary to move in rhythm through out the entire throw. The best throwers contain the same amount of time in each phase while completing a great throw. Focusing on rhythm can bring about the consistency to get in the right positions that many throwers lack. To execute a sound discus throw with solid technique,it requires perfect balance. Due to the throw being a linear movement, combined with a one and a half rotation, and an implement at the end of one arm, a good discus thrower needs to maintain balance within the circle.

Depends on what your looking for. First there is the run up. You want to keep the tip of your jav down. Then proceed into you 5 step. The are also called cross overs. Block your nondominant heel into the ground. Bring your arm through and throw. Make sure that when you do your crossovers to make sure your arm is straight and you don't drop your elbow. You can also just do a 5 step or a full. Your body should make a C form and you want to throw through the point. Look it up on YouTube if you are confused
