30 Apr Lab Rat Pre Contest Week 3 – Deload

I’m currently training for the RPS Redemption Meet in Ft. Myers May 30th.  Goals for this meet are to improve my 242 w/wraps total of 1550 via 550, 425 and 575.

This past week was a deload, since I’m running a condensed pre contest percentages used were slightly higher than a 10week split.  Most of the team will be training at Michigan Barbell this weekend which so happens to be when the heavy weeks kick off.   Should be a damn good time!
