    What would you do with three 15 min training periods per week.

    Inspired by this article, I ask the question in the title:

    “if, for whatever reason, you were forced into a situation where you could only pursue your goal for three 15-minute periods a week, what would you do?”

    In regards to shooting.

    Pummelling, underhooks, bicep and wrist ties, and duck unders in conjunction with presentation. Hell, if I could afford to pay someone to stop by my office 3xweek for just 15 minutes drilling that, I’d probably end up way ahead of the curve in just a few months. Not a bad thought.

    Draw from concealment.
    Transitions.

    It will get stale. It always gets stale. You can vary to 1 hand draw, draw to no shoot, draw while moving in various directions, draw to retention, vary distance, etc.

    Transition practice can be left to right, right to left, F2S, multiple targets, while moving, with a light, 90*, 180*, etc.

    I think they are the most important skills. So focus on them bare, and use variations when it feels stale.

    Dry fire.

    Trigger control is paramount.

    Boarding a plane to Portland, Oregon in a few minutes. I've got some thoughts on this based on answering this question a few times over the years. The time crunch is real for folks, and training sometimes takes a backseat to running kids to after-school events, or other responsibilities. I'll post more after I touch down. I've been able to give folks a legit solution based on a time frame of 15 minutes, 2-3 times a week.
