I am currently in Phase #1 of my program for the 2015 United States Strongman National Championships. This phase is focused on increasing my speed on the yoke, increasing my overall lower body strength and increasing my bodyweight. I'll also be working on my event technique. I'm also raising an amazing infant boy, while still working, training and living life. My next competition will be the USS National Championship in late June where I'll be competing in the 220# class.

This was my final training session before my deload week. Since I had been putting so much emphasis on my back squat I wasn't sure where my front squat would be. So I worked up to a heavy single to get an idea. This is to help with programming for my next phase. Nothing else is very exciting. Just putting in the work.
