“…A throw can be assessed kinematically by dividing it into smaller phases, which commonly include phases such as the wind-up, stride, arm-cocking, arm acceleration, arm deceleration, and follow-through phases (Braatz and Gogia, 1987;Dillman, Fleisig, and Andrews, 1993;Feltner, 1989;Fleisig, Barrentine, Escamilla, and Andrews, 1996;Sakurai, Ikegami, Okamoto, Yabe, and Toyoshima, 1993;Vaughan, 1990). Various movements are performed in each phase, and the limbs are considered to contribute sequentially in a throw for speed (Kreighbaum and Barthels, 1996).…”
