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.

Nothing too exciting about this day. Just putting in the work and chasing that pump. I'm really liking how things are structured in my programming right now. I've got 3 strength days and 1 hypertrophy day.
