After finally getting an off season training cycle in, I am now in meet prep for WPC World's where I will be competing raw with knee wraps in the 132 pound weight class in Baton Rouge, LA on November 7th, 2016. My goal is to earn my first world championship.

Just some usual make up work on this day. I was feeling even worse than I was on Tuesday in terms of my sinuses, so I was a bit worried that I would only get about 1-2 things in and have to call it quits. But luckily just getting in and training managed to loosen my face up enough to let me breathe and get some work in. Nothing was even remotely hard, just lots and lots of reps to I could keep moving. I felt SO MUCH better afterwards, and glad I actually decided to not back out. My body could probably use some extra sleep this week, but I have no idea how I'm going to make that fit with a short week and then being out of town for the Wendler UGSS. Just will need to be smart about things the rest of the week, and hopefully play a little catch up next week if I can I guess. The good thing is my food intake is still high enough that my recovery doesn't seem to taking much of a hit. Thank goodness for some meds that are somewhat helping.
