RIFLE (3 POSITIONS)

Rifle (3 Positions) training plans, built for your goal

3-Position Rifle demands three different bodies in one match — prone rewards a stable sling position, kneeling needs hip and ankle mobility to hold the roll, and standing is pure core and shoulder endurance with no support at all. SportBlox builds your 3-position rifle training plan around your weakest position, current level and match calendar.

Who it's for

Who it's for

First 3-position match

Position-by-position fundamentals — sling use, kneeling roll and standing stance — built up before scoring all three.

Fixing your weakest position

Targeted mobility and stability work for whichever of the three positions is costing the most points.

Consistent scores across all three

Position-transition drills and postural endurance work aimed at even scoring prone, kneeling and standing.

Personalisation

How SportBlox personalises it

Your goal & event date

Sessions build toward the specific goal and date you set, with a taper if you're racing or competing.

Your skill level

Volume and intensity scale to where you actually are, from Inexperienced to Professional.

Your stated weaknesses

Tell SportBlox about things like kneeling position stability, position-transition speed, standing-position hold late in a match and the plan weights sessions toward fixing them.

Your schedule

The plan fits the days and time you say you have — not an idealised training week.

FAQ

Rifle (3 Positions) training plan FAQ

How many range sessions do I need weekly?

Most 3-position shooters combine two to three live-fire sessions with dry-fire and mobility work, adjusted to your range access.

Do I need to train all three positions every week?

No — SportBlox weights sessions toward whichever position you flag as weakest while maintaining the other two.

Is this suitable for a beginner shooter?

Yes, set your level to beginner and the plan builds each position's fundamentals separately before combining them in a match simulation.

Can it fit around my club's scheduled sessions?

Yes, tell it about existing club sessions and the plan builds strength and dry-fire work around them.

Does it address kneeling-position mobility specifically?

Yes — hip and ankle mobility work is included year-round, not just before a match, since it's usually the limiting position.
