Let's practice our overhand throw! If we use all of our cues - "POINT, ELBOW, STEP, TWIST AND THROW" then you will be able to throw a lot farther.
Try to throw to a target from a close spot, then back up and make it harder when you can hit your target. How far away from your target can you back up and still hit it?
Remember to get your elbow up next to your ear, and step with your opposite foot.
