easy training

find local marksmanship classes

youtube if nothing else is available, but find a good instructor not that nutin
fancy idiot.
Find a local competition to enter. Even if you don't have the exact right equipm
ent.
Shoot with whatever you have. Nothing at all wrong with shooting a $350 surplus
Glock and cheap white box ammo from walmart. Nothing at all. You may not win 1st
place, but you'll get great training in shooting under stress,weapons handeling
, rapid target aquisition, moving and reloading and how your equiment works (or
find out when it doesn't work).
You can find suitable .22 rifles for $140-$200 that you can use as practice/trai
ner rifles, or use them for inexpensive competition. Marlin and Savage brands bo
th have affordable models to get you started on any budget. You can chose from t
he bolt action with is more accurate but slower, or a semi-auto, which is faster
, but usually less accurate.
As long as teh rules say you can use a semi-auto, you can shoot almost any compe
tition you want- smallbore target competitions, smallbore sillhoutte etc. It doe
sn't matter if eveyone else is shooting $5,000 target rifles- get in there, comp
ete a little bit and have fun and gain experience.

Fitness should always be a key component of your overall plan. try for variety or crosstraining... walk, bike, hike, swim, lift, ride, climb or run. or some c
ombination of those.
