Same story as the other sessions this week, felt very strong on the press and assistance work but haven’t quite got my pop back on the squat yet.

I have to admit, I am getting the itch to signup for that February competition after all. I just know if I don’t commit to something soon that I won’t push myself as hard as I need to. I’m at the stage where I don’t really enjoy competing (or even the training for that matter), but I like the results, and when it’s over I feel I’ve done something worthwhile. Is that normal?

Anyway, I’m rambling now, but I am thinking that strongman competition in early Feb, there will be a kettlebell competition sometime in March that I’ve done before and want to give another go at, and then there should be that Tactical Strength Challenge in May or the Deadlift for Dogs fundraiser in June. That sounds like a nice busy calendar for the first half of the year.
