I’m currently in off season mode working on bringing up certain qualities and weaknesses I noticed from the IPA Grand Prix Nationals. This training will be laying the ground for my training cycle into the 2016 XPC Finals.

Saturday was a deload day, but I opted to just deload my intensity and still get in a lot of volume and blood flow work. Nothing was heavy, and this was a final hoo-rah training session at the rec center. It was fun and let me just enjoy a good day of training. I took some ideas from Meadows and blended them in with my own. I'm still feeling really good, but I'm hoping that just staying away from a barbell on my back and really focus on some good muscle contractions. I'll probably continue this style of training until the middle of the week, in which I'll introduce the barbell back in and do some light speed work and slowly get ready to get back to hitting it hard for XPC's.
