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.

After having a crummy week training wise for my legs, my wife and I opted to go in and train at the gym on Sunday night and spend some time together. We didn't really care too much about seeing the Super Bowl, but wanted to get some good training in. With her preparing for her first meet in April, and me having a crummy leg training session last week, we made the best of what we had. It made for a late evening, but it ended up being something we both needed.
