Menachem Chen sets a new personal best

Less than a week after competing in the Olympic Games in bobsleigh – Menachem Chen is already back in the throwing circle.

The Israeli athlete from Lider Jerusalem, Israel’s national champion in shot put, set a new personal best of 18.20 m at his conference championship in the United States, representing Arkansas State University – finishing second overall.

The sharp transition from the ice track of bobsleigh to the explosive power of the throwing circle tells the whole story – strength, stability, technique, and full body control.

And now – he’s coming home.

Menachem Chen will compete at the Grand Slam Jerusalem in the discus throw, bringing Olympic experience, competitive sharpness, and the hunger to push his limits even further.

From the ice to the grass at Givat Ram.

We can’t wait to see it happen
