"The better your stamina is, the easier you can compensate the adrenaline output, to quiet your pulse and breath," he notes. A shooter must get rid of the adrenaline with almost no movement. Schumann had a lot of adrenaline to get rid of during a 2 1/2-year winning streak that ended in 1997. "Don't remind me of that drama," he sighs. "Every competition was like...
