So I can do things at my own pace, if i need to?
I'm not techres, but I'm pretty sure the Appleseed program is the most accommodating and flexible shooting instruction you'll find.

As DaveD said, what we'll teach you how to do may make you sore, but it won't kill you, and the secret to having it not make you as sore is to stretch and get accustomed to the positions before you come out. They don't have to be exact, but having your body effectively say, "Oh, OK, cool, I know this position!" is far better than having it scream "HOLY HELL WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO TO ME?!?!?" when you come to a shoot.
I'm going to my first Appleseed this July and I'm looking forward to it. I'm definately "fat and happy", so I'm also a little concerned about the day, but can't wait to go.
What are the sample positions I should be practicing? Is there a link someone can share?
I'm thinking either June 6-7 at Auburn or the Mini at Cloverdale July 24. Actually doing the Mini first really appeals to me. Learn the basic drills and go home and work on them. Come back to a full Appleseed ready to put up some better scores!At which site will you be shooting with us?

If there is true pain in your back, stop and discuss it with your physician.
Get down on the floor in front of your TV. Cross your ankles. Lean forward and touch your ankles. Hold this as long as you can. As your back stretches, you should be able to touch your toes, then the floor in front of your feet. If you have a large stomach muscle, you may be able to lay it on the floor between yout legs. Now you are getting somewhere.
Stretch your back like this 2 or 3 times a week for 10 to 15 minutes and you will find the rifleman's positions much easier. I find it refreshing for my lower back also. My L5 is messed up. Sciatic pain and all..
