6 Weeks Out - Log Clean & Press (VIDEO), CG Axle Floor Press & More

I'm currently preparing for the 2016 USS Strongman Nationals which will be held on June 11th, 2016. My training focus is to continue to get stronger and prepare and peak for the events at Nationals. I'm working with teammate Mike Mastell on my nutrition and programming.

Today went really good. I felt a bit fatigued and beat up from deadlifts and front squats earlier in the week. My goal for this set was 8, so I was happy with that.
