eat After having a year away from the platform and a terrible showing at the 2018 XPC Bench Bash, I'm gearing back up for a multiply bench only competition, the APF Pressing the Pieces Together on April 27th, 2019. This meet helps bring awareness and charity donations for Autism Awareness. I'm looking to compete at 132lbs and just have a good meet back, while running my new gym, THIRST, and rehabbing my low back issues.

A Tuesday session that was quick and to the point. I'm wanting to slowly ease back into some squatting and deadlifting before too long, so I've been using some 10x10 on my RDL's and box squats to work on building up these movement patterns to feel good and have the weak areas built up before trying to work back into some good lifts after this meet. We'll see how it goes, but I just know my hammies were screaming at me.
