Making Progress

Just a quick update that training is progressing. I think at the beginning of the year I questioned whether or not I should give lifting another try. Alot of you encouraged me to get on the horse.

I have been back at it, training at Center City Gym in Brockton with Eddie Populo and in my basement. My boss bought into what I am trying to do and allows me to come in later so I can get some quality training sessions during the week.

My training goal is to lift in Masters Nationals next year if I can hit a total of 230kgs. I know there are no qualifying totals, but that is the number I want to hit.

My squats are going up, my flexibility is coming back, and I have not suffered any injury. I feel great. It is good to be lifting again.
