After sustaining multiple low back issues the past year, and coming off a terrible showing at the XPC Bench Bash, I'm now I can do what's best for my body. I've recently opened up a new training facility, THIRST, so I'm trying to balance life and training the best I can, with hopes that I can compete in some capacity by the end of 2018.

Some solid, hard leg training with an insane amount of volume on the True Squat. I was in a good mood and training vibe for whatever reason and decided to dig deep and get after it hard. I was paying for it after this session.
