Europa 2012
Alright, Europa 2012 is in the books...I had a great time and I was going to do a meet write up, but Pete did a great job writing up his performance on FB...."Another year, another Europa in the books. Finished my day with a 615 squat (45 pound pr), 425 bench (25 pound pr), and a 570 pull (25 pound pr) for a 1610 total. thanks to everyone from refuge, all of whom had awesome days as well, for being the best team and training environment around and to joe and nick t for all the help, without everyone of you guys I wouldn't be able to continue getting better and smashing bigger and bigger pr's. Now I rest up and then get back to the drawing board because while I am happy I will never be satisfied". Great Job Pete
As for me, I had a good time at the meet and did better then I expected with my groin injury. I was redligthed my first two squats for depth, The weight felt light, but I'm thinking the groin subconsciously made me puss out a little, so I came away with just my opener. I went 3 for 3 on bench with a meet PR and I hit a 365lbs DL on my 2nd attempt and declined my 3rd.
I've been doing the Military Athlete Operator Sessions and I really like the programing...but right now I need to set some new goal and drive on.

Here we go.........
Here we Go.......Europa is this weekend, rumor has it Pete Skippy is going to be putting up big numbers, I'm still nursing a groin injury, but I'm still going to compete and I'm going to shoot for the best numbers I can put up...I'm still in my "rebuilding" phase and its going well...I switched from 5/3/1 to Military Athlete Big 24 program. After completing the Big 24 program, I went directly into the Military Athlete Operator Sessions. I like them so far and they are a kick in the balls. The next post will be a Meet recap from Europa.
Also I met a local owner of a Diner, who is in his mid 50s and could close the #3 CoC no problem, thats pretty cool.
