Do you ever practice catching to help keep things balanced?

I mean, jeez, all that throwing and no catching is going to leave you with some imbalances fo shure...
 
Shotputter dont catch the shot neither do javelin throwers and they dont seem inbalanced. You just gotta make sure you counteract in the gym. Plus all the proprioreceptive movements of other events!

Ummmm...tell you what. You spend one day trying to catch the stuff being thrown and I promise you'll never have the urge to catch again. I had a really bad joke in there to start with but took it out so I can be politically corect.
