Actually did Braemar at the end of practice as the fellas were already underway when I got there.  Working on getting smooth with my open (Shuffle).  WFD are really doing well.  My LWFD is hitting high 40's now.  Caber is doing well.  Sticks were water logged from all the rain today.

22APR  SUN

LH x10...farthest throw of my life on the first attempt then the rest were blah.  Trying to hard when the first went so easy
Caber  5:7...windy as all get out

WOB x7...all cleared 11' with some that would have gone 12'

Sheaf x10...cleared 20'

25APR  WED

Braemar  x10    Have moved to a wider base and it is taking some getting used to

Open      x10     Really hitting some good power positions here and getting the stone out there

HWFD    x10     Feeling good and not trying to kill it has really helped

LWFD    x10     Same as above

Will hit this week with new Max days.  Deload with throwing.  Start with speed work 10x3 and throwing.

Body Weight  180 - 192 (+12)

Squat  340 - 380 (+40).  Only 20 pounds shy of the 400 goal.

Dead Lift 460 - 480 (+20).  Really thought I would do better here.

Bench 240 - 250 (+10).  Goal was 300 but not even close.  Did move my Push Press quite a bit.

Notations:  Did GOMAD for a long time.  Liver enzymes and such got all out of whack.  Got sick.  Told to quit milk a month before Lent; went the step further and gave it up all together.  Easing back into like a normal person on the moo.  Body weight got as high as 207 but it dropped to 192 as of today; I am holding steady here and that is fine.  Feeling good.

Next up:  Road to Relevance 2012.  Stay tuned.

No lifting.  -itis is better.  Antibiotics are doing there thing (effect and side effects in unison).

Did not lift.  Still getting better.  My body weight is now 185 from 196.  Plan to practice on Wednesday then Alma on Sunday.  Speed work for the week along with practice leading in Guelph, CN on June 9th.  After I think a strength cycle would feel great.  Thoughts?
