This week, I competed at the DTS Open placing first in the 63kg open category with an 847 lb total, also winning best female and best squat. With the guidance of Steve Goggins, I am in pursuit of greatness, both on and off the platform.

The week after competitions is the worst for me.

I'm on a mental high from the meet, thinking about what I need to do to improve for my next competition. More passionate, and mentally more ready than ever to train, but physically beat.

I just watched the new 'Passion Trumps Everything' video about 5 times in a row and I'm not sure why, because now I feel 500% more motivated to train.

I am ready to crush training, and do whatever it takes to be the best, and be my best for Nationals.

Training will resume later this week.
