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.

Monday called for more blood flow work. Nothing really exciting to report on here. Just getting in some good work and feeling really good. Upper back work has been the main emphasis lately, but as I see other weak areas begin to present themselves, this may change. A pretty quick session knocked out in a little over 30 minutes. Easy and effective for what I needed.
