Nick Palacios

I currently live in Austin, TX but was born in Pacheco, CA. I am the Operations Manager for The Tactical Games. A rapidly growing sport that combines fitness and precision shooting. We put on events all over the country and in 2025 will be expanding internationally into Europe. It’s a sport I fell in love with from the first event I went to. The sport is addicting but the community is what keeps you coming back. 

In my spare time I love to pursue archery and bowhunting, which is something I have found a deep passion for over the past couple years. It's something that has enriched my life for the better and I've dedicated myself to giving back to the community locally and at large in any way I can. So others can benefit from the practice as well and start a tradition that will be carried on through their family for generations to come.

Favorite Workout:

4 rounds: Assault Bike - 5 mins, 4 mins, 3 mins, 2 mins, 1 min

Sled Push - 30 yards progressively adding load each set

Rest 1 min between sets.

Advice To Your Younger Self:

Be consistent in everything you do. Stop looking all around at what other people are doing and taking away from the opportunities in front of you. The amount of progress you can make in just 6 months time from consistent compounded effort will absolutely shock you & give you all the motivation you need to keep moving forward.
