What are your Training Plans for 2024?

[Jedi54]

I definitely did not train as much as I would have liked in 2023 so that is something I'm looking to rectify this year.

My current plans.

1. Tactical Trauma / Stop the Bleed
2. Pistol Red Dot course - April
3. Rifle CQB - May

Trying to think of at least one more class. Might look at a course at Thunder Ranch for the fall.

How about the rest of you?

As I’m approaching 75, my training plans are limited. Texas LTC will be only goal I have for the year.

My training plans actually will make me more of a trainer and advance coach for kid's shootings teams. I am currently a 4H shooting coach but I am being proposed to take certifications for being a SCTP coach for shotgun sports and SASP Coach for rifle and pistol competitions plus getting prepped for NSCA level 1 certification, but I need to see how my younger daughter will do first since my oldest is graduating this year. I have also been asked to get certified with 4H to also coach for rifle teams so my list and schedule will be very busy but in reality, anything for our kids willing to take this route to not only advance their skills and knowledge of firearms handling but giving them the opportunity to fight for their future careers and goals for better education with generous thanks from these organizations to assist in scholarships.

I set a goal to shoot a 69 on the golf course I play at this year. Been training for that. Guns have taken a back seat.

Never saw the need for it. Been shooting over 50 years, and can hit what I aim at.
If I wanted to play Soldier or SWAT team, I would've joined a long time ago.

Oh yes. Despite me loving what i do and no regrets starting and training more techniques over the years, it still does get old and will take its toll on your body. I now say to people becareful what you ask for and prepare for some physical pain. I will say I do not miss doing push ups in the mud and running six miles in the rain.

I'm training to vote in the Democrat Primary. Haven't decided if I'm going to fake being trans or fake being dead.....

I've always believed there's a big difference between shooting and training but yeah, to each his own.

I don't take firearms training courses. I do take 1st aid, trauma care and other medical courses. Those are more useful to me.

Do you need to train to drive your truck or car? Do your everyday job? Ride a bike?Train to fish? hunt? Go shopping?

Training is vital for 2 things..
Maintaining and keeping your mobility and building and maintaining muscle.
Both of these things directly effect your quality of life and your life expectancy

The less mobility you have the more muscle you lose. You need muscle to do almost everything.
Stand, sit, get up from a chair, walk to the mailbox, take a shower..

Also if you were to get sick..your muscle is your life force in the bank.
If you've ever seen a very thin person get gravely ill..they don't live long usually.


Your body adapts to what you are doing .
If you sit on your ass all day and eat trash food..well..expect to be heading downhill with your health.

If you push your body even a few times a week to do hard things..it adapts to those and gets stronger and more mobile.

Get busy living..or get busy dying

Interesting, who are you taking the pistol and rifle classes with?

I’m taking a Fundamentals course with Ben Stoeger in a few weeks. Will be hilarious as I’ve never shot a USPSA course before but a Marine friend of mine is coming down for it and he wanted me to take it with him. I’m going to embarrass myself I’m sure. Should be fun though and I always need more pistol work.
