Thank you posting the link, Reaper Sir. Years ago when I went through it, there were many terms I did not understand. But now, everything mentioned made complete sense and felt nostalgic.

I'm no uber gunfighter, but I've put my skills against those who attends numerous shooting classes and more years of experience. Sometimes I beat them, but they were always impressed. The search button is indeed the best thing since microwave

FWIW
IIRC, the TS did tell someone to go learn how to shoot from him once he can execute proper 100 push-ups and 20 pull-ups (got the pull-ups done, working on the push-ups, TS). However, in a different thread, grip and forearm strength were mentioned being necessary to shoot properly each and every time. I imagine one would do exercises more specific to these two areas. I do these:
- 6 and 10 pounds dumbbell/brick lifts, then held in right and left offhand position (gripped by finger tips, eye focused on the weight when up, then on the distance when down) for 1 to 2 minutes
- Forearm weight-roller
- Crossfit hammer drills.
I could be way off on the proper names of these exercises. These are for pistol. I do something else for rifle
Back to my lane...
