Almost Chicago bound

In less than 15 hours I will be in Chicago.  I know there has to be a miserable part to this weight cutting ordeal but so far I'm just drinking a ton of water.  Jamie tells me it all goes off in the last 36 hours or so, but I'm still sitting at around 254 pounds.  So we'll see what I weigh tomorrow morning.  My guess is 251ish.

Not a whole lot left to write.  I should see the Lilliebridge family Friday and it will be great to catch up with them.

I will get pics, vids, and updates as quickly as I can.  I want to thank everyone who has wished me well and fingers crossed that I don't blow anything out at this meet, hit something decent, and make it a worthwhile trip.

I'm more excited about my training partner lifting than my own.  I think she's going to kill it.

  3. Hey Paul, I haven't posted here a whole lot, but I've been reading your blog for quite a while and you've helped me transition to an injury free, steady progress lifting philosophy as I hit my 30's this year. Best of luck for the meet, we will be rooting for you and I'm sure you'll do us all proud, however it goes.

  7. All the best, big man, I'm really looking forward for the write up of the meet. On a side note, I started training my eldest son last week, and have to thank you again for being a huge source of inspiration in that area also.
