When my group went through the resort run by the SAS, only a couple of us had ever fired a handgun. They put us on the standard regimine of strength training, but included a modified course of TaiChi. Modified in such a way to emphasize lifting and locking a handgun in position. I have practised this for over 45 years since and have found it to be very helpful. Take a beginning TaiChi class and you will immediately recognise the needed modifications to the moves.
