I'm taking the next 12+ weeks off from strongman events and training primarily for hypertrophy with a slight strength emphasis. I'm in my "off-season" and looking to put on some size over the upcoming months and into next year. I'm working with teammate Mike Mastell on my programming.

 

I felt great during this training session. It felt good to have some heavy weight on my back again. Nothing too crazy, but I'm just putting in the work and volume.
