Practical Applied Stress Training Oct 20th

[WillBrink]

This course is at S&W Training Academy Oct 20th and is LE only. This course combines functional exercise stages with specific shooting rotations designed to challenge the shooters ability to effectively engage targets under physically and mentally stressful conditions.

Focus is on functional strength, stages that test bodyweight to strength ratios, dealing with unbalanced loads, and conditioning and strength, combined with shooting rotations designed to test - and ultimately improve - performance and shooting under extreme physical stress. Exercise stages will stress both the aerobic and anaerobic energy systems which directly impact shooting abilities. For full info on this course:

This looks great, wish I could afford it, but my Dept has no budget for funding right now.

Understood. You and everyone else from what I am seeing. Course attendance is way down for most schools I am told due to lack O budgets.

Follow up. I am proud to announce these programs are now part of the approved course curriculum by the Comm. of MA Department of Education.

Well, I'm now unhappy to announce that due to major budgets cuts by most PDs, S&W has had to put these, and other courses on hold for a while. I was told that due to lack of $$$ out there, filling anything but essential courses is tough. Will add sit rep if things change.
