* adapting recipes by swapping expensive ingredients for cheaper ones, for example, yoghurt instead of cream * following the advice of the eat-well plate and using more carbohydrates (which are cheaper) in meals * not wasting foods – the average family in the UK throws away £600 worth of food in a year * buying foods with a short shelf life that have been reduced in price * using a variety of supermarkets and planning meals around their special offers
* buying special offers, such as ‘buy one get one free’ * buying locally grown vegetables or even growing your own * using cheaper protein foods, for example, eggs, cheese and pulses People have to think of ways they can save money on their food bill, for example: One of the most important infl uences on food choice is what people can afford to spend. In the UK we can go to the supermarket at any time of the year and buy whatever food we want, as long as we are prepared to pay for it. We can import foods that we cannot grow ourselves. Food technologists have also created many new foods, such as Quorn®. In the UK there is a wide variety of food because of technological developments and improvements in the growth, transport, preservation and storage of food. In developing countries, such as in parts of Africa, there is very little choice and often insufficient food available, and they may not be able to grow produce because of climate, or because they cannot afford expensive agricultural equipment. These include the foods available, costs, personal preferences, storage and cooking facilities, the effect of advertising, promotions and food scares.Ĭhoice depends on the type of food available in the country and place where you live. There are different standards for men and women in the sport, where men's javelin must weight a minimum of 800g and be 2.6m-2.7m long, women's javelin can weigh a minimum of 600g and be 2.2m-2.3m long.A range of factors affect your choice of foods. IF there happens to be a tie, then the athlete with the next best effort will be declared the winner. In a competition, athletes usually throw the javelin three to six times. For the throw to be measured, the javelin must land tip first. The javelin must be thrown from above the upper part of their throwing arm and must not cross the foul or scratch line at any cost. While throwing the javelin, the athlete must not turn his back towards the landing area at any given time between their approach and throw. The player is supposed to run towards a defined area to gain momentum before throwing the javelin. The javelin must be held by a corded grip with the athlete's little finger closest to the tip.
The athlete is required to throw a metal-tipped javelin as far as possible. The sport of javelin throw requires quite a lot of strength, power, precision and above everything, it requires the most amount of determination. Modern Olympics Games programme had initiated the javelin throw for men in 1908 and women in 1932. It consisted of the participation of both men and women. The art of throwing a Javelin far and with precision was widely practised in ancient Greece and slowly evolved from an everyday hunting and warfare activity and was eventually added to the Ancient Olympic Games as part of the pentathlon in 708 BC.
