About this episode
Matt Robertson discusses the concept of the 'Benchmark Battery' for improving performance in shooting and athletics over the long term.
"If you chase two rabbits, you won't catch either." Most shooters and athletes fail because they try to improve everything at once. Today I discuss building "Benchmark Battery." It's a simple, rotating system for building strong performance over the long haul.
