Had First Game of the year Saturday in Dublin pretty much an up and own day lotsa highs and lows, footwork in the trip was sloppy at best all day fouled abunch of throws but overall pretty decent way to start off the season
BS 28# ugly Rock-28-9
OS 16# 49-6 PR
HW- 21'4 pretty god awful terrible
LW- 60'1 Ties PR and it look bad in the trip so this number should go way up
HH- 75ish i think (time to get boots i tried to put some momentum on the ball and kept flying out i feel that after i get comfortable with blades both hammers are gonna go way up)
Sheaf 20# 22' ties my 16# PR so i'm pretty happy about this
WOB- 12' ties PR with a solid czech weight (no link, similar to a brick)
3rd over all behind Spencer and Quint

The past couple of days I've been doin alot of unorthodox training aka
work... 25 hours Thursday and Friday a majority of which was spent
on the end of wrenches, a shovel, and a sledge hammer. Trying to
sell this to my boss as overtraining...he doesn't care... Hopefully gonna
make it to the gym for some dynamic/core work and possibly some

Haven't posted on here in awhile life has been hectic to say the least
but decided to go ahead and start concentrating on loseing weight
between now and January 2012, I've got two games left and it's
probaly not a great time to start but if I tried to start my diet mid-
November like I planned I'm pretty sure I would fail miserably come
the holidays. But before I changed my program I did do some maxing

major work next season

haven't spent as much time on the practice field I'm really hoping for
good hammers and sheaf since this will be my last games to throw
them.

I got married on January 3rd, and had a baby girl on January 25th. everything's going great. As far as working out I've been really foucusing on general fitness and athletiscism as of right now i'm 6-5, 298 roughly 23% BF looking to get down to the 275-280 and stay in that area. I've been focusing on lower weights lots of volume and making consistent Cardio a Priority. I'm probably about to start moving some heavier weights probably a majority of my work sets being 4-6 reps. Goals for this year: Lifting Bench385(335) Squat600(500) Dead620(545) Clean365(330) Snatch230(265) OHP275(235) PP345(320) Jerk365(335) Games BS40(38-4) OS 52(49-6) HW 35(29-7) LW 70(64) HH90(85-6) LH110(103-6) Sheaf30(28) WOB15(13) Specner is now by some strange series of events my neighbor so we're gonna start throwing either tomorrow or saturday. This is a big season for me Its time for me to get serious or start treating this as a hobbie

Keep forgetting to keep up with this but, here's kinda what's been going on Last Tuesday went and threw with spencer Worked braemar hard some where in the 30-35 throw range with 18lb shot adjusted my placement on my neck felt pretty decent distances kinda sporadic 39-43ish. Then took about 10 sheaf pulls with my brand new boomstick spencer basically told me my form was shit and we started from square 1. Last Thursday Braemar 5x15.5lb stone 45-48' (felt great) Ostone middle drills x4 Fulls x 6 ( starting to feel better still not timing up right) 47-50' Sheaf pulls x 10 feeling a lot better here great pop off the fork and getting the bag to land about 8' behind me as opposed to 50' to the right Took some hammer winds nothing special Throwing stones, lwfd, and hammer today.

My first games of the season will be thistle at the end of this month in OKC, these are some numbers I'm shooting for Current PR in () BS-40(38-4) OS-50(49-6) HWFD-31(29-7) LWFD-68(64-0) HH-88(85-6) LH-108(103-4) Sheaf-30(24-0) WOB-14(13) Without having much training prior to this games I'm mainly hoping for big stone numbers to post on the board so I can focus on my weaker points before my next game

Had my second game of the year yesterday and honestly really surprised with my results, I haven't been able to train for a couple months, crazy busy, 3 kids, work, opening a business for my wife, and 3-5hours of sleep, kept my weight in control 299-303, but losing muscle. But someone how I put one of the best games I've ever had together in round rock. Braemar-38-11(PR) OS-50-4(PR) HW-25-11:( LW-61-5:/ HH-84-6 LH-99-11:/ Caber-12:00 Sheaf-31' (7' PR) WOB-13-6 Finished first over all and had a blast the TCAA is one of the best groups of people I've been around. Hoping to start finding more training time soon
