After coming off my best meet performance of my career, I am now officially a beat up powerlifter. I'm having some minor low back issues that I'm working on mending up, and then I'll begin to find a competitive option. My goals for 2017 are to compete in a bodybuilding show and also get back to the platform 100% healthy.

Monday's back and bicep training had quite a bit of volume per usual. After the long, hectic weekend, some much needed fun training was crammed in between some clients. Training should be back in line again and all systems go.
