[QUOTE="nofearfactor, post: 1086722, member: 1535"] ...while sore from heavy weight workouts. It honestly is affecting my SD shooting practice as trying to hold up my sore arms to maintain proper grip is affecting my grip and I seem not to be able to properly recover and readjust in between rounds as I do when not so sore. I'm frustrated. I need to workout but I also need to get in shooting time. As a touring musician who only works spring,summer and fall I am now trying to get back in shape to be ready for a fast paced summer of shows. I workout year round but I usually amp up my weight workouts in the spring to try to shed any winters accumulation of polar bear fat faster. It never occurred to me that it may also effect my shooting grip and subsequent shooting practice. Or I'm just getting older and only started noticing that the lactic acid build up post workout and into the next recovery day effects things more than I realized. I stick to the same routine Ive done for years and years- I drink tons of water,drink complex carb drinks during my workouts,drink a lactic acid flush drink post workout, and then drink low carb/hi amino acid protein drinks post workout and into and thru my recovery day. I just dont notice the soreness as much when like practicing the guitar for shows as I do when holding my arms up to shoot. I guess I will just have to try and schedule my shooting workouts the day of a weight workout and not shoot in between weight workouts,or try to figure out how to balance the two. Any advice from shooting instructors or shooters who also weight train would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
