Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Shot Put.

The 'Glide Technique' is a common method used in the shot put event within track and field. It involves a linear movement across the throwing circle, generating momentum before the release. This technique emphasizes power and speed, allowing athletes to maximize the distance of their throw. The glide contrasts with the rotational technique, which is another method used in shot put.
