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.

This session felt great. My log clean and press is starting to feel good again and my technique is definitely coming back. If things keep progressing and coming together as they are I should be good for a log clean & press PR in December at "Hope".
