When I was in my 30s and 40s, I lifted regularly and handgun accuracy came easy. Of course my eyesight was better then too. My lifting was pretty much restricted to curls and overhead presses of moderate weight.
Now, in my 60s and no longer lifting, I found I'd lost my edge with handguns. Accuracy was hard to come by.
Got back into lifting recently and it seems to help. Nothing definitive yet on scores, but the sights are a lot steadier and trigger control has improved.
Anyone else use weight training to help with their shooting? Got anything to recommend? Wondering if heavy weights will help more than reps or vice-versa...
