After coming off my best meet performance of my career, I am now taking some time to focus on competing in bodybuilding over the spring of 2017. My nutrition coaching is through Cliff Wilson, and I have not yet determined the shows I'm competing in at this time.

Wednesday was another early morning training session with Adrian. This one was a bit quicker than normal as we both had some obligations in the late morning we needed to attend to. It was still a really good pump, and the supersets really set a good tone for overall volume of work and just keeping the pace going back and forth for us. Shoulder training is finally starting to grow on me. I might begin to sprinkle some shoulder work in on Sunday's as well with my tricep work after benching, but we'll just see how the recovery process goes before doing that. I'll also make that decision as the fat keeps coming off and we see where I might need a bit more work to fill out some lagging areas, but shoulders seem to be doing well with 2 back days and ample pressing throughout the week.
