Paul Hughes is a brilliant mental coach that I got to meet thanks to his posts on Instagram. Luckily, I got to be part of the first cohort of his course and it was totally worth it 🙂 My mental game has improved a lot and the tools he provided (review of the course coming soon) are proving helpful in my profesional and personal life. He’s been the lead psychologist of the Olympic Great Britain shooting squad among other positions and now he’s made himself available to the world 🙂 (contact details at the end of the interview). As a sports psychologist, he doesn’t work in isolation with athletes, rather directly on the range alongside shooters and coaches. His focus is on helping athletes to minimise psychological error and enable their technical skill to be delivered consistently.

New training programme: more grip holding, plus coordination and visualization
Here’s a new training programme that continues the work on changing how I grip my pistol and adds some more coordination and visualization drills.
Another pistol training programme!
Back to you again today with another training programme (the previous one was in use for one week). This one focuses on sensations and trigger release (will I ever stop training the trigger?).
Working on my grip
After the good news of my inexistant vertical spread, I’ve been working on changing the way I grip the pistol so that I no longer use the tips of my fingers.

For the SCATT and competition files head here.
One shot to remember from the last online competition (and a preview of one of the tracking files I’m working on)
Unfortunately, my trigger indecision crept back in, so this week’s training focuses more on that and on not using SCATT for a while (too much analysis).
