This April, I competed at CPU Nationals, placing second in the 63kg open category with an 825 lb total, just one pound behind first place. With the guidance of Steve Goggins, I am in pursuit of greatness, both on and off the platform.


I had what I feel like is a huge milestone during my heavy bench training this week. 200x3!!!!!

The reason I think this is a milestone is because while I have benched over 200 lbs a handful of times(Not every time to competition standard), I have never benched anything over 190 lbs for reps. I really feel that this means my goal of joining the two plate club (225 lbs) is coming soon!
