After sustaining multiple low back issues the past year, and coming off a terrible showing at the XPC Bench Bash, I'm now I can do what's best for my body. I've recently opened up a new training facility, THIRST, so I'm trying to balance life and training the best I can, with hopes that I can compete in some capacity by the end of 2018.

Now that I'm trying to make some improvements on my lower body training, I'm easing into some dynamic effort work to improve my rate of force development and slowly make progress on my lower body stuff. This week I'm just working on some box jumps, and then I'll get back to using the traditional lifts with VERY light weight and drilling technique even more. Since I'm starting from square one, I figured just doing some bodyweight plyos was a good starting point. Overall things are feeling good!
