Check out this sick new song introduced to me recently.  I had no idea what "hard core" music even was until today.

Young Chevrolet...Thank you!

Today I had the opportunity of meeting with Spencer Young of Young Chevrolet to discuss a potential sponsorship.  It was a pleasure to speak with him and we had a great time getting to know each other.  Young Chevrolet runs a cream-of-the-crop operation and has been around for many years.  He was very kind and offered the opportunity to represent Young Chevrolet as an athlete this year.  I am honored to have this opportunity and after learning more about Spencer and the values they keep at their dealership, I welcome the responsibility of exemplifying an honorable image on their behalf.  Thank you Spencer!

*Finally back to moving some real weight today! Felt good too. I tweaked my right pec last week on some DB work so I was a little gun shy on Floor Press today but still came away with a 10 lb PR (405 + 150lb chains so almost 555 @ the top). The accessory work afterwards wasn't exactly fun but I want to gain some muscle back after getting so sloppy during my meet cycle. I'm down to 260 (almost 18 lbs lost) and hoping to put 5-10lbs of muscle on over the next 6-12 weeks. Long rant..apologies. I'm just excited to get back into real training.
