Bastrainer.com was developed to help promote a new and exciting product called “BAS Trainer”. BAS Trainer was invented by Chris Vogel, a local Spokane WA. track and field coach. The device, invented for javelin throwers, allows the athlete to perform what is called a “weighted shoulder throw”. A weighted shoulder throw allows the athlete to go through all the same bio-mechanical motions as throwing a javelin but without using the arm. This speeds up recovery and promotes strength in the thrower while still allowing them to train the rest of the body to within a 2% variance of a natural throw.
The BAS Trainer system is gaining world notoriety and there is talk of it becoming a sanctioned indoor track and field event.
Best of luck to you Chris Vogel!
Below is a video validating the product. The study was done by Eastern Washington University.
