After finally getting an off season training cycle in, I am now in meet prep for WPC World's where I will be competing raw with knee wraps in the 132 pound weight class in Baton Rouge, LA on November 7th, 2016. My goal is to earn my first world championship.

Friday I got in my final day of week three. Thursday I had some personal issues to attend to, and just felt that I would not be able to squeeze in a quality training session, so I just opted to push it back a whole day. While not ideal (since I would be benching again 48 hours later), but I still made it work and had a great training session. It also worked out nice since I knew I would be driving to Elitefts for the UGSS so I got to load up on some good food that evening to put to good use.

Moving my session resulted in me not having a spot, so I had to cut my work up set a bit shorter than I would have liked. I felt good for a great PR, but just had to settle with the smallest possible one for the day. Other than that, a really good day of training!
