I'm taking the next 12+ weeks off from strongman events and training primarily for hypertrophy with a slight strength emphasis. I'm in my "off-season" and looking to put on some size over the upcoming months and into next year. I'm working with teammate Mike Mastell on my programming.

Things went pretty good today. My energy and focus was pretty high and I had no issues handling the volume. I'm liking the change and I'm excited about the weeks to come.
