Pour éviter de sortir du cercle après une poussée complète, c'est-à-dire lorsque le poids a été poussé le plus loin possible en avant, le lanceur effectue un changement de pied. La jambe gauche est portée en arrière pendant que la droite, vivement placée contre le butoir, fléchit et que le tronc se casse, arrêtant ainsi le mouvement vers l'avant et permettant de rétablir l'équilibre. 4, record 1, French, - changement%20de%20pied
