0:00.0 | Hello, boys and girls, ladies and germs. This is Tim Ferriss. Welcome to another episode of the |
0:04.2 | Tim Ferriss show, where it is my job to deconstruct world-class performers, to tease out how they do |
0:09.4 | what they do, the routines, the belief structures, the training programs that you can apply to your |
0:14.8 | own life. And I say training programs because my guest today is one of the best teachers |
0:18.7 | and trainers I have found in the last several years |
0:23.3 | in any discipline whatsoever. His name is Jake Kaminsky. Jake Kaminsky is a two-time |
0:28.9 | Olympic silver medalist in archery and a longtime member of the U.S. archery team with more |
0:33.9 | than a decade of international competition experience. He is very well known for his |

1:20.2 | to events with him because he was my coach and is my coach in archery. I had my first competition |
1:26.4 | end of January. We'll talk about that. |
1:29.1 | So he, in addition to that, writes training guides and develops high performance gear, |
1:33.9 | which he manufactures in Austria. It is as precise as you expect Jake Kaminsky to be under the |
1:41.8 | Kaminsky Archery brand. You can find him on YouTube, Jake Kaminsky, at Jake Kaminsky to be under the Kaminsky Archery brand. You can find him on YouTube, |
