Once again I am taking at step closer to my goal. My confidence is growing with every rep that I take each and every time we squat.
This training cycle has been different than many others in the past. My age, recovery, and the mileage on my body is really taking a toll on me. As hard as I have fought father time throughout the years I am beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel closing. As unfortunate as that sounds, it happens to us all. But it has not closed yet and I am running as fast as I fucking can to get to the end of that tunnel before it closes. It just seems so far away now, but I can make it.
From a coaching stand point, I feel that my skills and knowledge continue to improve year after year. It takes a lot of trial and error to get things right to help people become successful and to build ordinary small town people into powerlifting champions. I feel that our gym and our team is very special. I don't feel like there is another true powerlifting team that is anything like we are. Your are not just a number at our gym, your a family member. You are not just a total your a family member. Your not just a total, your my brother, you're my sister, you're my friend.
It has taken many years to build and become what we have at Team Nebobarbell. My pride for this gym can not be quantified in a sentence or a paragraph. It can not be explained in a few words spoken to another individual. I can only compare it to a sense of immense pride like you would feel for your child or something that you are truly truly proud of. Many many people told me for several years that this gym would amount to nothing and produce nothing. Who's laughing now. We will have eleven lifters competing at this meet in just a few weeks. Some new some old and some just learning but we will be coming together as a team to help one another, support one another and cheer each other on through our nine lifts.
If you are reading this and you are coming to the World IPA Championships please introduce yourself and if we know each other be sure and give your boy a hug. And if your not sure how to spot us, look around we will be about fifty deep wearing Team Nebobarbell shirts.
