While I might not still be back to 100%, I'm healthy enough to compete bench only. Therefore, I am currently in meet prep, where I will compete at the APF/AAPF Summer Bash on July 29th, 2017. I'll be competing the 132-lb. weight class, multi-ply, where I look to bench press 500+ pounds, yet still mending my low back issues.

Saturday I got in a good training session with the crew and the girl friend. I'm making continued progress on the SSB work, and I'm slowly starting to dwindle the accessory work down as I'm now four weeks out. Some rather simple work, but I'm closing in on an all-time rep PR with my SSB work. Next week I'm going to give it a go if I feel good, and then I'll really shut things down.
