After sustaining multiple low back issues the past year, and coming off a terrible showing at the XPC Bench Bash, I'm now focused on training to improve my body and mind as I prepare for my wedding in June. I hope to be back on the platform towards the end of 2018.

On this Friday morning I knocked out a quit upper chest, shoulder, and tricep session. I had some time between clients and just opted to get my training out of the way. Things felt rather good, and I really cranked the pace on this on. A good pump, and some more baby steps forward.
