Why Structure Is More Important Than Strength For Recoil And Movement

- Coined this phrase recently to explain why structure is more important than strength when trying to mitigate recoil and enable mobility.

This is the first time I’ve heard a trainer say this since I was a kid, when I was in junior high/high school I did NRA smallbore and when you’re a 100 lb kid holding a 10 lb rifle it’s all about structure. I’ve told many people this over the years and either they try thinking about energy conservation and love it or they go that’s stupid and keep getting tired, anyway I’m glad I’m not the only one lol. My old instructors used to say it doesn’t matter how much gas you have in the tank if your coasting down hill, I’m more in the let’s keep the tank full for as long as we can camp. For defensive shooting you are going to have to use muscles, but every position that your not using them, that is one more you can do later.
Seriously appreciate your videos and common sense
Because of you I have ventured into rmr's.
Thanks
Learned a lot in your class Jedi, I’m stealing all your stuff and giving you credit! Between you, Bill, Chuck, and Aaron I picked up more stuff than I have in the past 6 years. Thanks again 👍🏽
Interested in your videos.
Glad you enjoyed the Symposium.
Ok, I get that you put your left foot forward. But when does the "shake it all about" come in. follow up question, do we take it out? Really though thank you for the content, I watch everyone I can.
Strength over structure ethos is aging well. Scott teaches what works. Scott is coming to San Diego Feb. 2025 and Hunter Freeland Sept. 2024; grab a class if you're in town.
Another good video with great info. Thanks!
Great information!!!
Good stuff Scott!
im hungry for more please😜
Excellent perspective from a different angle. You ever make a study of yoga?
I love shooting in an athletic stance, but in a defensive situation you're likely just standing squared up/isosceles as that's fairly common posture; do you recommend training in both stances?
Hey man I know this is a late response, but even in a defensive situation you should still be in an athletic stance. If someone comes at you, you wouldn’t have your body squared up, you’re insanely ineffective and easily to move/ push over that way.
@@RLS_91 the issue is you don't know when a defensive situation is going to happen. If I see someone running at me, I'll square up, but that won't necessarily be the case
@@Jarred8281 i find myself in a relaxed atheltic stance all the time, long martial artist so its normal for me to just stand and have my lead leg in front of my dominant leg, just train both if you feel like u need to, i default to standing in a way that allows me to move in all directions rapidly
Do both. You can practice taking a step forward or back during your draw to go from standing iso to athletic. At some point you should be able to isolate a portion of your shooting ability from what stance you have. Sometimes you might be leaning over a railing, leaning to one side to peek over a corner, walking, sitting in your car, etc. Your most stable shooting is in your grounded stance, but don't make that the only way you can shoot.
Love it
