I'm currently in the early stages of preparing for 2016 USS Strongman Nationals which will be held on June 11th, 2016. My training focus is to continue to get stronger overall, continue adding some size and start working in strongman events again. I'm working with teammate Mike Mastell on my programming.
I'm really happy with how the log feels right now and where I'm at on it. That doesn't mean that it doesn't suck, because it does. I'm on the ground for 5 minutes after to catch my breath. My conditioning is improving though. I'm hoping to be hitting the competition weight (250#) for 12 reps in a minute at Nationals. The shoulder is about 95% right now I'd say.
