June 12th Raw meet

Last weekend we traveled up to Prescott for the American Record Breakers Meet for 100% Raw.

I handled Geno, Charles and Christian and they all kicked but. Christian did great in his first international meet, Geno killed the 400lb DL we have been training to get for over a year, and Big Charles smoked 486 to break the existing national record and his own PR then took down 500lbs as well to seal the deal

Big Geno also set new records on the strict curl and bench.

great job guys it was a blast handling you.

Snatch and Pull

Friday, pushed training ahead a day so I can coach tomorrow. Hammy is jacked so going to take things just to the level of no pain. Be conservative.

Hang Power Snatch
Bar x some
95 x some
145 x 1 x 8

DL warm up to
600 x 1 easy

DL Rack Pull against double over black bands
Bar x 3
245 x 3
335 x 1
425 x 1
515 x 1
605 x 1 x 2

That’s it Im tired. The pulls against bands sucked they really pull you out in front which makes you work hard, Id rather pull 800 dead weight than 605 + dbl black band weight just gets harder and harder as you go LOL I guess that’s the point though

Press, pull, spin, throw

Snatch Reform Tour Stop # 3 Bozeman Mt.

We had a great seminar and an exciting time. Old friends and tons of new ones. my first time in Mt since I lived there briefly. Its a great part of the country that's for sure.

We had everything from good food, to horrid Hotels. BP oil spill reenactments to a great seminar with two of the best host one could ask for, and a awesome group of students.

Thank you everyone for a great time!!!
