Pretty cool week of training.  It was kinda the 3rd week of a mini-cycle, so I worked up heavy on bench and speed squats, then went down to London, OH for a heavy deadlift session at the S4 compound.  Christian had pointed out a few things awhile back on my videos so we made plans to train together and tweak a few things.  Helped tremendously

Aside from that it was just a great day at the compound.  About 60 folks were there just all doing their thing. Seeing my teammates was awesome, as usual. I'll do another write up on the seminar and Sunday's training as well.

Life is settling.  Mentally I'm in a good place.  Some pieces are a work in progress, but isn't it always?
