Very rough meet for me, but I made it out achieving what I needed-- a qualifying wilkes for the Arnold Pro Raw Challenge.

I went into this meet with aches and pains all over, most notably in my shoulder, hip, and lower back. It hurt/s to get up in the morning, to stand, to walk, and of course to lift. So we lowered the numbers, figured out what I needed to qualify-- and did what needed to be done. It didn't feel good, and I didn't feel proud, but I felt like I did my job as an athlete.

 

Meet numbers:

Squat (2/3): 364lbs

Bench (1/3): ~181lbs

Deadlift (2/3): 435lbs
