I'm currently in the early stages of preparing for 2016 USS Strongman Nationals which will be held on June 11th, 2016. My training focus is to continue to get stronger overall, continue adding some size and start working in strongman events again. I'm working with teammate Mike Mastell on my programming.

These log cleans kicked my ass. I'm definitely not very conditioned at the moment. That will be changing in the upcoming weeks though. Overall this was a good session and felt good to get some solid work in.
