I Welcome a Conversation with You…
Use the comment or contact pages for your questions. Tell me what you think about my lessons.
Send me your video for an analysis.
This site is my expertise and experience, what I have learned along the way about the discus and throwing in general. There are links to my YouTube Channel, my video lessons on CoachTube and links to other sites of value.
Some of you may be familiar with The Wilkins Review, a collection of 120 video lessons.
These lessons will be consolidated, updated and revised and posted on CoachTube. One difference about Coach Tube is that it is a one time purchase for unlimited use and time period.
F.A.R.E, the Foundation for Athletic Research & Education. Founded by my friends Dr. LeRoy Perry and the late Wilt Chamberlain, FARE is the vehicle for Dr. Perry’s research on spinal rehab and therapy. The results are dramatic and could revolutionize spinal therapy and care.
I am very excited about a new line of products and services that helped me as an athlete and now as a
coach looking to enjoy an active healthy life style. Smart Back Care will be a source of products I not only believe in but have made a difference in my life..
This is NOT Mac Throw Video
My friends at Mac Throw do a great job at covering the Throws. You should be there often. Macwilkins.com will not be a site with lots of videos of throws from recent competitions. But the site will have more explanation and education on how to throw well and therefore farther.
Think About This…
When you go to YouTube and watch the latest big throw, do you know what the thrower is trying to accomplish, are they actually doing what they want to do, are they making mistakes and still throwing far? (most likely)
What should you try to imitate and what should you try to avoid? None of these vital questions can be answered while watching YouTube. My goal is to provide these answers and answers to questions you may not have considered.
