Current total: 830.5 at 132 lb BW - Florida State and National Record Holder in Junior and Open Women's Raw division

Qualified National Strongman competitor and will be competing in Nationals this coming October to qualify for The Arnold in 2016

I am here to live, learn, and pass on.

Last week was definitely motivation for me to work even harder.

Recap of last Saturday's training: Worked up to 135lbs on the log and could not press it. Evidently, my mental state was tested and I just wasn't fully there.

Today's events:

Log clean and press for singles

130lbs x 3 x 1, 135lbs x 1

Zercher's (yoke)

300lbs x 40ft x 3 - best time: 8.37

140lbs Sandbag carry and load - my first carry and load I wasn't sure why I re-adjusted when there was no need. I was thinking carry the sand like a stone and adjusted my arms as so. That obviously ate up time and the sandbag was falling everywhere. This is why it is important to run these events like you would in comp -- you learn the movement and what works best for you.
