This April, I competed at CPU Nationals, placing second in the 63kg open category with an 825 lb total, just one pound behind first place.
With the guidance of Steve Goggins, I am in pursuit of greatness, both on and off the platform.
Training is really light this week since I will be jetting off to Georgia on Saturday to train with Steve Goggins for three days. I am really looking forward to spending time with Steve for a few main reasons
- Training 1on1 in person is far more effective than training online. Better feedback, better coaching, better lifts.
- Talking training, programming, etc with one of the bests in the biz.
- Being reminded of the big picture. I let myself get caught up in what other people think/say of me far too often and let it bother me. These people don't matter, the people who care about me matter.
- PRs, PRs, and more PRs
I have been training very light, working up to 150 for 5x5 on bench and 185 for 5x5 on squat. Easy peasy!
