I’m currently in meet prep for the 2016 APF Illinois State Meet, in Sycamore, Illinois. I will be competing at 148 pounds, raw (without wraps). At this meet I will just be taking token lifts to qualify for APF Equipped Nationals which is in Orlando, Florida where I will be competing at 132 pounds, raw with knee wraps. As such, the bigger picture is to prep for this meet, and obtain a top three placing to qualify for WPC Worlds in November.
For programming and coaching inquires, please email SmitleyPerformanceSystems@gmail.com or visit brandonsmitley.comWednesday I continued on with some light lower body work to help develope some of the things that I'm going to need to work on now that I'm switching footwear. I bit of a change to really focus on my hips and hamstrings a bit more, but I think it's mainly my hips that will be needing it. It'll take some time, but I'm pretty confident that I can make some good progress before Nationals to bring up the desired weak areas so that I can excel and hit some PR's on meet day. One more day of training, then some rest for the APF Illinois State meet, where I'm going to barely lift anything.
