ClangClang,
I really like the training outline you provided. I have tried similar methods when training with my friend who is a GM. I noticed I could not duplicate any of his skills when moving - I was just slower while trying for A's. Also, he could not point out what the difference was between us. He just said - "you need to practice more." So, later that night I studied the videos we took and noticed he was very smooth when moving. While braking down the movements, I noticed he was better aligned to the target. During dry fire practice, if I matched my hips and shoulders alignment while moving I could be smooth, faster. I took that idea to live fire practicing and noticed I was faster and accurate during my runs. It's a lot more foot work but it works for me. I am C shooter in USPSA so I need to work on things really hard to get them in my head.
I was always told to stay square to the target and I just thought it was to keep my upper body or my shoulders aligned with the target, but now I am rethinking this. Square to the target means hips and shoulders square to the target or just shoulders?
Thanks Robert
