After a packed holiday season, including 1rm testing to find opening numbers (fueled by Christmas cookies of course), my first competition is 27 days away. This challenge will entail me posting battle log style updates for my last normal training week (2nd-6th), overload week (9th-13th), taper week (16th-20th), liiiight week (23rd-25th) and comp day (28th). Outside of slinging iron, I'll be blerping (exciting new verb) on weekly chiro visits and yoga classes, and daily Mint/MFP/Duolingo/Meditation/yoga practice. There could be check boxes, stay tuned.

Wow... so it's been a long while since I posted one of these babies. But I figured it's time to come outta my Daily Battle Log "shell" for this new goal. What is the new goal you asked? For those that follow my Daily Log, you already know, but I'm going to qualify for Raw Nationals in the USAPL this year as part of the NF Powerlifting team. No if's, and's, or butt's. 1067lbs at 205BW. Simple as that. During the 2V2L, I did a 1042.5 @ 217 to give you some perspective on where I need to get by August 22nd. So yeah... time to hit it hard. What's the challenge? Nothing related to working
