I'm thinking about it... I'm competing in October so it'll probably be too a soon but maybe I can go to watch.

Ok, so when Oct gets closer I'll work harder to convince you. :-)

Conditioning/GPP
10 min chins- 33 total These were super tough today for some reason.
10 min ab- GHD sit ups

10 min mobility work

It's cool that you've decided to compete at the Worlds, Leah! You're going to crush it!

You clearly didn't have to work that hard. Guess who's going to Vegas. I just spoke with Todd and he said I'll be find to compete the month after the USAPL meet. It's just a qualifying meet so no need to go crazy! See you in Sin City!

Yeah! ! This is so awesome! This is going to be a blast. :-)

You guys are both awesome. I look forward to hearing all about it in November.

8/30/14
Acc Week 3 Day 4

Deadlift, no belt
245x4
245x4
255x4
Then some RDLs to try to just stretch more. My sciatic pain is still bothering me. It's not horrible, but it's a bother, and I don't want it to get worse. I have some concerns about the lower amount of volume that I actually got in for this block, but it is what it is.

1 sec paused bench
125x4 @7
135x4 @8
145x3 @10 :-)
140x4 @8.5
135x4 @9

And then I skipped my second supplemental deadlifts. I am so tired and worn out after this week that I might be getting old! :-)
