I’m currently in limbo land for about the next week until I decide what my next steps are, after competing at the XPC Finals. I'll keep up to date with what my plans are, as soon as I know.

For programming and coaching inquires, please email SmitleyPerformanceSystems@gmail.com


Thursday I got in some lighter training as I didn't really know exactly what I wanted to do. I decided since I hadn't really done much back or shoulder work, that I would focus my attention there. I knew coming in that Saturday I would be getting back to some more serious training, so I opted to just bro-out and get a massive pump.

I'll have some more information later about my plans as I think I know my next course of action, but Saturday all I know is I'm back to training hard.
