Episode Details

Today, I talk about when to train to your weakness, rather than outsource to it because I just took Fighting Pistol at Tactical Response in Camden, Tn and was blown away with how much I was able to learn in just two days.

We'll dive into the advantages and disadvantages of both approaches, so you can make informed decisions for your personal growth.
