I have not posted in about a month as my meet prep has started to ramp up. I am about a month out right now so only a few weeks left before I am back on the platform. It has been a long time but I think I am ready and by the end of the year could be into uncharted water.
I got some help adjusting my squat form and it will pay off in the future. You may notice I am much more upright and using more hips and hamstrings. My bench is still behind from my injury but is coming along and I will be above 90% at this meet. After the meet I am going to get some help for my deadlift and see if I can get it moving.
