time to step up to the plate again



ok pity party over. time to get it on....2 months till CFL strongman. "face to face" is the theme song for me now.
means a lot on all levels, i have some issues that will only be worked out against the iron.
made a couple decisions regarding training. i will rotate my pressing, push press and seated press. i will also do close grips on the same day. deads will rotate with leg press and back day will be power cleans and zerchers, rotated with good mornings.
another thought floating through my addled brain is weight. 2 weeks ago i was 250+, today i was 245. must have been the screaming shits i had all week....going to put myself on a strict eating plan. keto with a few carbs thrown in for sanity, mostly rice. also adding cardio in the gym, something i have neglected and have paid for dearly. maybe, just maybe i will come in a lightweight master and tear it up. do this right and i won't have to cut weight the last week and i will be one happy dude.
