December proved to be an amazing meet for me! I hit my first 800+ lb. total, and went 9/9. My goal now is to beat my previous numbers by a 5-10% increase, and out-perform my last meet in every area. I am prepping for the XPC Finals in Columbus, OH. following the Minimalist/M2 Method by Brian Schwab. Brian has been my coach for just over a year now. The following logs are documenting my progress utilizing his training methods. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everything felt really solid. Squat sets were an RPE of 6. No other comments to add, it was all smooth as butter.

As far as diet goes, today is my last "cheat" day. Chips and salsa, maybe some other stuff. Starting tomorrow everything gets cleaned up as I prep myself for my weight cut.

SQUATS:

bar x bunch

95x5

135x3

185x2

225x1

250x2

255x2

 

LEG PRESS:

LYING LEG CURLS:

Ab stuff...lying leg raises for a couple of sets, some cable crunches. Nothing super fancy.
