Hey guys what's going on I'm retired Navy SEAL Chris Sajnog founder of
the new rules of marksmanship training system in this video I'm gonna teach you
how to stop your hands from shaking when you're shooting a pistol now let's go
ahead and get started
so a lot of people will have the problem of their hand shaking when they're
shooting a pistol it's very common now if this is a problem you have the first
thing I want to tell you is that you're never going to be able to shoot a gun
that is perfectly stable the only way to avoid this would be to put your gun into
a vise and crank it down so there's no movement and then you can pull the
trigger and the guns not going to move but unless you're doing that you've got
to get used to the fact that there's going to be some gun movement the second
thing is if you are keeping proper sight alignment and proper front sight focus
when you're shooting the amount that you would miss that shot that you take is
only going to be the amount that your hands are shaking now some people will
call this a wobble and if your wobble or if your shaking is bigger than the
target that you're shooting at then you probably should not be shooting a
firearm now maybe you have some neurological condition that a firearms
instructor like myself is not going to be able to help you with but as far as
shooting I do have a few tips that can help you out alright so tip number one
is that you're gripping the gun too hard if you follow me and how I teach
shooting I teach that when you grip the gun that you should grip it with a
hundred percent and a hundred percent grip with both hands
now what I don't mean by that is that you're going past a hundred percent and
I'll show you what I mean if I grip this gun right now as hard as I can it's not
moving but if I over squeeze you're gonna see that it starts shaking because
I'm trying to put more pressure in the gun then my hands will allow and if
you're doing that that's gonna cause shaking so what I want you to do is just
grip the gun hard but not more than your grip strength will allow and you can
help this out obviously by improving your grip strength there's lots of ways
to do that and I recommend that you do that alright number two is not breathing
when you'd hold your breath and don't breathe there's a ton of physiological
changes that happen in your body and one of
is muscle tremors and those muscle tremors always start in the smallest
muscles in your body you'll usually notice them in the first place in your
eyelids let the small muscles in your hands are some of the next places that
we'll start so make sure you're breathing and getting oxygen into your
muscles to stop that shaking and the third and last way is just to relax
shooting should be fun and it is fun and if you've practiced properly you can go
out there to the range and relax and enjoy it
so don't be stressed and probably the easiest way that I've found to make sure
that your body is relaxed is before you shoot just wiggle your toes I mean if
I'm gonna shoot and I feel like okay I'm tense the gun is wiggling around my
hands are shaking the nerve that it takes to wiggle your toes is one of the
longest nerves in your body so for you to be able to move your toes that means
that through your whole body your body has to relax and use those nerves to
wiggle your toes and you're gonna see that you naturally calm down and you're
able to shoot without your hands wiggling or shaking so those are three
tips I hope they've helped you out and until next time keep paving your path to
perfection hey I really hope you enjoyed watching that video and if you did I put
