Now that I've given my body some rest after the APF Summer Bash, I've began to have some medial knee pain in my right knee. I'm still training hard, but I'm focusing on keeping my low back healthy and addressing my knee issues as well. The goal for 2017 is to end the year completely healthy and have a solid base to build a real training cycle on.

Friday afternoon I got in another arm pump training session. Me and the training partners were planned to head up north for the RPS Indiana State Championships in Wheatfield, IN. I knew that I wasn't going to be able to train over the weekend again, so really I just wanted to get something in and feel like I did something. Not too bad for only having 30 minutes to cram something in.
