Background: I work at OSU as a graduate teaching associate and lift at Ludus Magnus. I am a raw lifter who competes in the 105lb weight classes, and am currently prepping for my next meet (when grad school finally gives me a weekend off) . Currently, I am in the process of trying to accomplish my lofty lifting goals,survive graduate school, and teach undergraduates about what I really love, TRAINING..

I'm losing at this month and we are only four days in, oh boy...

On the bright side though, all my students in strength lab can tell you that all training has a neuromuscular component...I'll take that for a point for life in general!
