Week 1 of Training Post-Meet
This first week of training I dropped all my training maxes down 40-50lbs and kept a few reps in the tank on all my top sets. I also switched to slower touch and go deadlifts. I'm looking at potentially doing a USAPL meet April 1st as my next competition.

Competitively - My last competition was the UPA Winter Rack Attack on December 17th (competed raw at 220lbs). It was my second meet back transitioning to competing raw, and my goal entering next year is to qualify for a larger raw competition (whether it be at the Arnold or elsewhere).
