The skill related fitness component that is most required by a shot-putter to increase the distance of his or her throw is power.

Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Short put is a track and field event in which the athlete is required to put a heavy metal ball to a particular distance. The throw is usually parabolic. So the skill which is needed to increase the distance of short-putter is power.

This was included in Olympics as a part for men in 1896 and for women in 1948. For men the ball weighs 7.260 kilograms and for women it is 4 kilograms.
