    Seeing as you have mentioned you will be throwing the boy weights around instead of the women-class weights I would say the women's distances will be useful for you but the best thing early on is to just get out there and throw. The weights will surprise you, but if you get familiar with the mens weights, any time you throw the 16/28 weights you will be that much stronger.

    As a recommendation though, I do heartily suggest you try and source the lighter weights for yourself to work on speed. With the heavier weights you will not be able to really work on the skills needed to perfect your throws, because once you've hit your limits on strength, form is what will eventually reap better benefits in the events.

    And on the Fiona physique...

    There are some of us *ahem* that, you know, would, *ahem* find Fiona attractive if we were also cartoon trolls*.





    *Or maybe if we weren't.
