    Asking help to get better at USPSA / IPSC

    Posted: 19 Jul 2021 02:00 PM PDT

    Hi everyone! I'm 23 and this year I've started competitive shooting in IPSC (for the US folks is like USPSA). The past year I've been focusing on loosing weight training with a personal trainer and doing mainly calisthenics, but now the cost of training for IPSC really took the budget I got and, because I'm not really a fit kind of person I was looking for something I could do at home. Do some of you train specifically for practical shooting? Do you have routines or something I can follow online, like videos or something? Basically a match consists (obviously) of shooting, so using a minimal grip strength, then there's a lot of sprinting, squatting while shooting in awkward positions, and sometimes ducking and moving through tunnels. So mainly is a lot of cardio work, the match are a some of stages that doesn't last more than 30/40 seconds at worst. The idea is to get faster and develop a good coordination in explosive movements. I don't really need to get a ton of muscles to manage recoil, contrary to what most people think, I just need to be more athletic. Sorry if is a dumb question but I really don't know much about, and tbh I just don't want to waste time and energy in some routine not useful or to get hurt with dumb exercises found randomly online. Any suggestions are welcomed! P.s.: sorry for mistakes if there are, English is not my first language and thank anyone in advance!
