Episode # 393: Max Michel - How to Build a World Championship Training Plan

In this American Warrior Show episode, multiple time national and world champion Max Michel walks us through a full World Shoot training plan, starting today.  I gave no pre-question to Max before the show and after a brief introduction we jump right in.
Max has an incredibly deep background in practical shooting as well as applying the skills he has honed over the years as a pro in his instructional role to Law Enforcement and the U.S. Military.   This discussion includes a great deal of information and concepts that the average or elite level shooter can assimilate and apply in thier own skill development.  
This is an incredible show!  Read more in his bio below:
