After having a year away from the platform and a terrible showing at the 2018 XPC Bench Bash, I'm gearing back up for a multiply bench only competition, the APF Pressing the Pieces Together on April 27th, 2019. This meet helps bring awareness and charity donations for Autism Awareness. I'm looking to compete at 132lbs and just have a good meet back, while running my new gym, THIRST, and rehabbing my low back issues.

This particular lower body training session was more about just getting some solid work in and cranking out some good single leg work. I'm trying to drift away from training my legs on Friday's so that I can be as fresh as possible when I bench press on Saturday's. The belt squat work was a nice finishing touch for things.
