Why Shooting Should Be Treated Like a Martial Art

About this video

Colion hosts Travis Mann, a chiropractor and soft tissue specialist who has worked with him since 2019. Travis explains his approach to preventative and post-surgical rehab, emphasizing fascial mobility and soft tissue work over traditional stretching. He argues that shooting should be treated like a martial art requiring physical and mental preparation, and shares his philosophy on injury prevention through daily ‘fascial hygiene’ using tools like foam rollers and massage guns.

Key takeaways

• Colion describes how Travis treats shooting-related injuries by viewing the body like car alignment—tightness in one area causes wear in another, and pain location often differs from the root cause
• Travis teaches that soft tissue mobility (working on fascia through foam rolling, massage guns, or lacrosse balls) is more effective than static stretching for injury prevention and performance
• According to Travis, developing a daily fascial mobility routine (1-2 minutes, once or twice daily) helps shooters and tactical athletes identify pre-injury tenderness and maintain the physical demands of their activities
