About This Episode:

In this episode of the Concealed Carry Podcast, I speak with Matt Little from Graybeard Actual about the impact of language in training methodologies. We critically evaluate the overused phrase “train like you fight,” emphasizing the need for context in training to enhance skill development.

Our discussion highlights the role of discomfort—both physical and psychological—in pushing boundaries during training sessions. We examine structured drills for effective skill acquisition, while also cautioning against the pitfalls of popular phrases like “slow is smooth, smooth is fast,” particularly for advanced shooters.

We explore the differences between competitive and tactical shooting and stress the significance of maintaining accuracy and discipline. The episode concludes with actionable insights for shooters to foster a growth-oriented training environment.

As always, any questions or suggestions for future episodes can be submitted to podcast@concealedcarry.com!
