Getting close to the end goal of the season.... world champs is weeks away.
Today’s lifting session:
Cleans, squats, a movement exercise
.
(Cleans 175 & 200lbs
Squats 250 & 265 lbs )
.
As we get closer to world championships I want to make sure I stay explosive, lift heavy but not at the expense of crushing my body, and make sure I stay healthy. Being 2 weeks out is always precarious. The hurry up and wait game. It’s been a long season, changes galore, it’s easy to not lift and say “I’m too tired” or taper off too early, but I can’t if I want the ultimate prize at the end. Plenty of time to loose it all, but still enough time to make gains. managing my energy and staying focused for what counts is key. making sure my body is at its peak in 2 weeks is the goal. Not too much, not too little right now. There still is work to be done, but I have to accept where I am at and maximize. No regrets! my experience through trial / error to figure out the correct way to build my mind and body during this time is important. I have planned to the best of my ability and will continue to execute. I have to trust myself and my team more than ever. Each championships is always different, but my job and performance is the same. So many moments of doubt and worry can creep in, that’s normal, but I’m confident in my abilities, my team, and excited for what’s to come. I will control what I can control and have faith in the rest of it.
