Just a few more days. I plan to be up in Phoenix late Friday afternoon (between 5:30 and 6:00 PM local) if anyone wants to get together and talk shop. Send me a PM and we can exchange contact info or hand signals.
Oh, how I wish I could make this one. I had such a good time last year that I hate to miss out on an even better boot camp this year. 
Unfortunately, I was unable to get the time off from work because I’ve taken on a new client and have meetings scheduled Friday and Monday (the days I would have been flying on).
Also, Stacey is in an opera that is also going on this weekend.
I hope there’s another seminar in the future with T-Nation members, writers and coaches, as I definitely would like to go.
Guess that means no stories about ass grabbing this year. Unless Shugart takes over your job.
No Nate Dogg? Why the hell am I going this year? LOL. Oh! But Sandy Joyce will be here… looks like some ass grabbing might ensue even without Nate. Sorry “Dogg”, we’ll send pics.

Please do! 
In all honesty, I would have gone just to see you and Sandy again. I know we have much to talk about and would have a blast together.
I’m truly sorry I missed it this year. I had many “big” plans had Stacey and I both been able to attend. 
Nate, dont worry. No one dethroned you as this year’s ‘Ass Grab Master’.
I’ll never foget that swirly eyes look you got staring at Dave Barr’s ass. You were like a fat kid with a nickel, and Dave’s ass was the candy store.
You did, however, miss out on some rock star strong man lifting at Hot AZ’s place. How she accumulated all those toys is beyond me (I’m sure the neighbors that came out to stare at us love that). . . but as I sit in the airport, I can feel my legs starting to swell up with soreness that will turn into excruciating pain. The ass grabbing you could have gotten in while we were tire flipping. . . .
I will post pictures later of jodgey appearing to “toss cookies” in my neighbors driveway. I think THAT’S why they were looking at us funny, LOL.
Yes, Nate, we missed you. There was no one my height this year!

Man wish I could have made it next year for sure. Instead I was driving, breaking down then more driving 18 hours straight moving. Hope all had a blast and see ya next year,
Phill
I think next year, we make the post-seminar strong man a mandatory thing. That was much fun.
And Mike (Greg) Bauer is some freaky kind of huge. He decided that the truck pulls werent enough, so every time he got the truck moving, he stopped and started over again.
BTW, there is nothing hotter than seeing a chick load up a yoke and take a stroll through the neighborhood. Thanks for the hospitality Shelle.
Good times.
Sounds like a really good time! I’m glad you guys had a blast. I will try to make the next one for sure.
I’ll definitely make up for the missed ass grabbing.
Great pics! Some strongman training would have been fun!
Don’t worry Shelle, next time, you’ll have someone there who is the same size as you! 
Yeah Nate, I was definitely midget sized by those 2! Maybe we’ll just plan a weekend for you all to fly out and train with us! During the “winter” months here in AZ though…
So, jodgey, how are you feeling today? Any tire burns on your biceps? I have some even though I only managed to slip the 400lber 2X. Oh well, next time I’ll take it corner to corner like Bauer did.

No tire burns. Maybe becuase I was gripping it incorrectly. But I am full body sore. It is awesome. . . I could see how you guys get hooked on it. I winter weekend in AZ would be awesome. We could also get some stones and the keg tosses in there.
Are you feeling it today?
I think you got the tire 3x. I could see Nate hopping in the tire and rolling down the driveway. He is small and kooky enough.
Yeah, Nate is a bit kooky for sure! Man, it would’ve been great to have him there. You were there in spirit though, we talked about how fun it was last year alot!
Yeah, i’m a bit sore. One tire burn on my right shoulder, good for a conversation starter, LOL. By the time you get back, we’ll have the stone platform done so you can play with those too!

That’s cool. Glad you guys thought of me!
Hopefully, we’ll get a chance to get together again soon.

I’ve got some pretty sweet tire burns on my biceps, look pretty bad-ass if you ask me.
I’m going to need to rub my arms against cartoonishly large tires more often…
