After sustaining multiple low back issues the past year, and coming off a terrible showing at the XPC Bench Bash, I'm now focused on training to improve my body and mind as I prepare for my wedding in June. I hope to be back on the platform towards the end of 2018.

I first off want to apologize to those of you that read my log on the regular. Life has been a crazy whirlwind, which I will get to over the course of my logs. If you follow me on social media, you can probably tell I've got a lot going on, and training and my logs have taken a big hit. I'm going to do my best to go through and put my training on these logs, but understand they are badly outdated. If you've got any questions just let me know. Thanks for sticking around and reading my log.


Items Used in this Training Session

Warm Up 10 minutes on the stair climber

A1) Wtd GHR (Elevated) 3x10

B1) Front Squat 45x10 95x10 135x10 165x10 185x10

I felt like crap this day, so I just shut it down there. There wasn't much else I could really do to salvage the session. Just gotta deal with that some days.
