I have decided on a meet! November 24, 2018, I will be competing in the EPC Finals in Guelph, ON. This was the meet where I tore my quad in 2017. I have 2 goals:

• Get to the meet healthy
• Build momentum for the future

If there is a PR there, I will take it, but I am playing the long game from here on out.

So, since I picked a meet, I wanted to see where my strength was at with weights in the 80% range.  Well, the bench felt phenomenal and I am very close to my strongest ever.  The squat… well, the squat needs some work.  The triples in the video were at 600lbs and they were moving more like 700lbs used to.  I used a mono here, but this will be a walked out meet, so no more of that.  Regardless of the hit to my ego, I have 16 weeks to put a total together and I am in a good starting position, but more than anything – I AM HEALTHY!  I will be deloading this coming week and then I will start ramping up towards the meet.
