Student of the Gun Radio

Author: Student of the Gun

Being a Student of the Gun is not about being a novice or beginner. Student of the Gun represents a life's journey of education, enlightenment and the enjoyment of firearms. Each week Student of the Gun will introduce our listeners to all manner of firearms related topics be they sport, recreation or personal defense. Unlike the television format, through the magic of digital radio, we will have the opportunity to explore topics more deeply rather than just give them a quick glance. Discussions will address both that which is current news in the firearms world as well as traditions and foundational principles. Student of the Gun, a beginner once, a student for life.

Strength vs Cardio & Force on Force | SOTG 1363
Friday, 23 October, 2026

Wanna hear the FULL Episode? Sign up for the Grad Program today! Our friend Louis Caras is back from his training trip. For this episode we are going to discuss a myriad of training and skill enhancement topics. During our Tech Talk from EOTech Inc. we are pleased to inform you that the testing phase for the "Rifle Donut" has begun. What have we done and what do we have planned for the future? For our Coffee Corner, Paul has a new book, yes, new-new book, "Airsoft and Airguns for Tactical Training" on Amazon as a paperback and Kindle. Louis just conducted Force on Force training using airsoft tools and has some serious thought regarding their use. Drink coffee and support us at www.studentofthegun.com/blackout. During our Fighting Fitness discussion, we consider the seemingly ongoing battle between Strength and Cardio. Recently, the Professor listened to an interview with Mr. Christian Craighead where that topic was examined. Is this a one or the other topic? Do you need to forego cardiovascular training in order to strength train? Does great cardio make up for a lack of strength? Also, we dive into the transformative aspects of engaging in voluntary hardship and forcing yourself to park your ego and learn new skills. How can we unlock the brain's true potential and get the most out of our time or the best "return on investment." Don't miss this episode.
