The test out for this week didn't go as well as I would like. I had a humbling experience with the barbell and some great words with my training partner Amber Chauncey Strain. She reminded me that I would not always put up PR's every time we lift. She reminded me that I should be happy that earlier in the week I was able to Power Snatch 190 which was a huge PR for me coming back from the set back. So after having things put in a better perspective I left not as bummed out as I had been.
I am looking forward to the next training cycle. I feel that this cycle will help me with being stronger at the bottom of my cleans and snatches. It will also help me with my jerks and presses. I think my coach Michael Matraca Bledsoe really came up with an awesome program for me that addresses a lot of my key problems. I am hoping that my body weight will continue to drop down to my weight class and my strength will continue to come back and get better. I hope that I can take this 192 total and get a 203 total by the time our meet at Factions Strength and Conditioning is here (Nov. 3). I will have more time to qualify but I am hoping to qualify early and have plenty of time to fix my mistakes and short comings.
