I'm currently training for USS "Hope for the Holidays" strongman competition that'll be in St. Louis on December 19th. I'll be competing in the max log clean & press and max deadlift events. I'm also still focusing on adding some size, but strength is my main emphasis. I'm working with teammate Mike Mastell on my programming. After competing in December my next competition plans will more than likely be USS Nationals or NAS Plat+ next summer.

My pulls felt really good today. My top set wasn't quite as smooth as I'd like, but overall it moved good and felt good. I'm feeling good with were my deadlift is and looking to hit a nice PR come December 19th.
