Tactical Fitness | Shooting While Exhausted

One thing people don’t realize too is how different stuff like this is compared to regular weight lifting. Someone could be very strong in the gym but if they only are training their muscles in isolation and their body isn’t used to working together then they’ll suck at stuff like this. Compound movements in the gym is definitely something that should be a primary focus for soldiers, cops, and armed citizens

[@IronInfidel]

I completely agree. Compound movements should be the center of our training programs. Thanks for the support and comment! Alex

[@stevedo18able]

Gotta incorporate some calisthenics! Compound movements are great cause it also shows you your weakest link.

[@lifeofslade]

a good training program MUST always start with the Compounds. only gym bros go to the gym just to do bicep curls and just isolation exercises.

[@artofshadows1797]

I train Muscle endurance to last longer in a survival situation bodybuilding to me is useless its just to get some ass

[@lifeofslade]

@@artofshadows1797 depends on what you go to the gym for. i personally don't body build. im a powerlifter. nothing like being able to carry out an overweight person (or two) out of a burning building with ease and speed, right? "endurance" training just won't cut it. as i said, as a LEO or even as a fireman, a strength program would be greatly beneficial. plus, why diss bodybuilding? and what's so bad about getting ass tf's wrong wd u AHAHAHAHAH

[@IronInfidel]

Thanks for watching.

[@TheTexanInfidel]

For the low crawl drag, a workout that is equally exhausting on both arms at once would be a heavier sandbag and just carabining the sandbag to the plate carrier. It’s a real smoker! None the less great work

[@IronInfidel]

Thats a great Idea. I may actually try that next time. Thank you for the input man.

[@tcarr1]

Thank you for the affirmation! Not only is going to the outdoor range and standing at the bench unchallenging (tryin to be nice here), but it's not how things would truly play out if something unfolded unexpectedly. I made up this drill I call "Run For Your Life!" Personally I like to use 4" and 6" paper plates as targets- they're cheap, easy to see shot placement, and adhere to the: "Aim small, shoot small" theory. I don't time this drill as this one is based on execution with exhaustion. Use 3-4 plates in varying positions and spread way out- some at 7 yds, some at 15 yds; each plate gets 3 shots. I get kitted up and then disassemble my pistol and scatter the pieces on the bench, then start the drill: 20 jumping jacks followed by a sprint to the 25yd target and back, repeat 3x or until I'm gassed (Do NOT lie. If you're not beat, do another run-you only cheat yourself!). On final run back, head to the bench, reassemble, load, and start shooting. But wait! SPOILER!! You only have 5 rds in your 1st mag so you HAVE to reload on the move to finish the drill! This is even more fun with friends who can randomize the rds in the 1st mag so you're truly blindsided by the reload and/or use snap caps to simulate a jam you have to clear as well. Another variation involves the above scenario with the addition of a carbine- instead of a reload, transition from rifle to pistol to finish the drill. This drill packs a lot of punch because it forces the shooter to manage breathing while making controlled, well-placed shots, reloading/clearing a misfire/transitioning to another weapon smoothly, all while on the move. Good luck and have fun!

[@IronInfidel]

Nice man that drill sounds like a challenge for sure. I'm glad to here others have a similar mindset with regards to training. I appreciate your support and comment! Alex

[@DowntoEarthThinkingcom]

Fitness and your own real capabilities are the critical factor to success with shooting and reacting to whatever may come on any day.

[@uriah1024]

I wanted to chime in that I appreciate videos like this. Not long ago I added a shot timer to my training, which changed everything. Having people like yourself post times on training lets me go back to my group and see what we're capable of. You give us goals.

[@johnng6416]

Good shit brother! A lot of people don’t prioritize pt into their readiness and training. Shooting flat range is totally different from actual firefight with stress, adrenaline, obstacles and barriers, shooting behind, under, and over cover or concealment, enemy returning fire, etc

[@IronInfidel]

Agreed. Thanks for the comment John. It really helps us grow our channel. I appreciate ya!

[@DowntoEarthThinkingcom]

this goes far beyond normal training here in USA. Most people just go to a range and accomplish nothing at all, threfore wasting a lot of time and money. The range is for sighting in weapons and thats it. If you think static shooting off a bench is actually challenging you are not a warrior at all ! You are just a lazy Amercan wasting your time and money and likey not even healthy as well. Get off the couch and go get it !

[@high_roller22]

I'm a fitness trainer and I tried doing something similar today at home and it's excruciating, but I love it and I'll keep doing it. Thanks for sharing the knowledge.

[@luisflores6324]

Im 300 lbs and over the last year I've been adding similar kind of drills to improve my cardio ,strength and accuracy when shooting, I run around with sinder blocks and sand bags while carrying some gear and right before I run out of breath I drop what's in my hands and start shooting at different targets at different distances. Great work out ,needless to say I go home exhausted but it feels great. I'm new to your channel and just subscribed 🤙

[@bdL91]

There was a video a while back showing a local gov LEO responding to a call about a possible active shooter at a mall. The LEO had his body cam on while he was running around the mall looking for the guy. Then he run up to a highway and took a kneeling position to pop the guy across the road. You could tell he was gassed. I was impressed with his focus and stress management

[@IronInfidel]

I actually remember that video. Excellent work by the Officer. Thanks for commenting on our vid, I appreciate it.

[@davidbell4216]

Great video!! I enjoyed the mixture of fitness, shooting and overall movement. I truly think our society greatly under estimates the power of being physically fit and how it can save your life if something unexpectedly happens that you have to react to.

I had people who clearly had no clue what they were talking about just straight up talking shit about how this type of training doesn't do anything.. they argued even further about subjects they don't know anything about such as how our bodies deal with stress.. fyi stress is stress your body can't tell the difference and your brain is only capable of telling the difference when you have experience.

Always shake weight

[@DowntoEarthThinkingcom]

Excellemt perspective on fitness and shooting or reacting under physical stres. Most Amercans today are not fit at all and quite lazy. They think if you have all the bells and whistles you are good to go, and that is a huge mistake in every realm of events. How many people under 40 or 50 do you know that can run a mile or even run two wind sprints back to back and fire accurately ? Most cannot run a mile or even one WS without a heart attack or total depletion of their physicality. Thanks for pointing out the obvious as I have done the same many times for years now and been greatly villified for telling the simple truth of these matters. Never stop training at all levels and this is a perfect example of functional fitness and cross training I have been teaching for years. Most will never go there. I have a lot of fun with all of it,, why not ?

[@kevinobrien3888]

This video literally kicked my ass and I love it and it got me thinking since I just turned 50. Why not? I shattered my left radial head and have had a prosthetic since 2014. Most sports I loved have been difficult if not painful since. In 2020 the bad news that my prosthetic is coming loose, it will need replacement, so it's not "if", but "when". Mysterious headaches come and go for months at a time and it's uncomfortable enough to not want to do anything after work or so that's been my excuse. But as I watched this video it made me think of all the benefits I'd gain if I'd just MOVE. Sure, maybe the headaches would still be there and my left arm isn't fully functional like I want it to be, but that's the only drawback I can think of. All I have is excuses. I'm starting tomorrow. I've ordered the Iron Infidel band set, a rogue bag and I have all the other gear. I just need the ass kicking or someone to yell at me. That's something I lack is accountability to someone.

What Brand is the Carrier?

[@IronInfidel]

Hey James, the carrier actually hasn't been released yet by the brand that makes it. I am not permitted to reveal the brand until it releases. Once it does release, I'll post about it. Sorry, I wish I could help.

I tease my buddies because they have the gut and are out of shape. It was evident when my buddy was doing some drills and he missed over 5 rounds at 25 yards on a steel target. I look over and he’s winded and his aim is flying EVERYWHERE. My rig was also over 10lbs heavier than theirs. One thing money can’t truly buy. Get in shape…and then some to compensate for your buddies

[@IronInfidel]

Seriously, what size tire is that? I'd like to incorporate the tire flipping into my workouts

[@IronInfidel]

I believe it is about a 37" tire. Nothing crazy
