That's not metagaming. It's a quite common reaction of many people to failing at a task, be it in sports, school or a fight - train more, learn more, get better tools, try another tactic. Entire movies and novels are centered on the hero(es) having to get better, to learn new combat skills etc., to beat the villains.
And yet another word from our sponsors
