Dental school has been keeping me very busy this semester. Training has been going well. I did another powerlifting meet a a few weeks ago (April 25th) in Austin, Tx and won my class. I’ll try and update this blog soon. Here are a few pics from the meet (565 lb dead-lift and 560 lb squat at 181lbs).

Class was cancelled this afternoon due to icy road conditions and the fact that it’s only going to get worse. So good friend and classmate Tristan Taylor joined me in today’s brief 30 min work out today. Had to hustle today because they were closing the place down due to the ice.

After taking the prior week off, this week was structured to basically get back in the swing of things. Taking caution not to go to heavy, utilizing strict form, warming up, cooling down, and stretching for each session. Next week it’s back to power lifting!!! ☺.501lb-squat 550lb-squat 573lb-squat
