The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - Do you get strange looks at your range when you exercise while shooting?

While it would get a second look from me, I figure you can do what you wish as long as it's safe and not interfering with anyone. You aren't doing this at the firing line, are you?
I'm the type who'd probably ask you why you were doing it, and a reaonable answer would satisfy me. If you said: " 'Cuz it zones me, man! Those targets are dust, man"! or something weird like that, now I'd be wondering. My kids shoot 3 position, and complain of cramps and twitching, especially when kneeling, so I can understand your reasoning. The .22 pistol league guys do upper body stuff (though not at the range) for similar reasons.
Hey, I see guys who sit in chairs and clamp thier pistols to the bench (not just sighting in). I don't see much point in that, but to each his own, right?
