26 Aug Paul Oneid – Being soft pt 1

I am currently prepping for an RPS meet in Kingston, Ontario on Oct 2. I am going to be competing at 242 raw with wraps. My training is in the capable hands of Jonathan Byrd and my diet is in the hands of Danny Vega. My body is feeling great and I am excited to step on the platform again after a bit of a lackluster meet in June.

Deloading because I'm not tough. 435x2x5sets. #deadlift #deadlifts #deload #deloadweek #powerlifter #powerlifting #rawpowerlifting #meetprep #dynamobarbell #crossfitotown #inzer #IAD #inzer #1020L #1020Life #tentwentylife #PRS #TeamPRS #PowerRackStrength #PLPnutrition #captainjacked #noskinnychampions #progressisaprocess #onedayatatime #theyhateuscausetheyanus #hotpam #ottawa

Thank god this is a deload week because my shoulders feel like a bag of dicks.  Squatting heavy, gaining weight and slacking on my bodywork (massage/ chiro) has me all sorts of bound up.  Taking this week to get some movement back, seek some treatment and give my body some TLC.  Got the plan from Byrd for the last 5 weeks leading into the meet and I am ready for it.  The bar is getting loaded up and its time to do some work.
