    A little update...After talking it over with Jason I have decided to add a new member to my corner this prep. After I finish sheiko in a week and a half I will be having Berto "Father Flex" guiding me the rest of the way as far as training is concerned. Many of you know who have been following along so far that it has been a big goal of mine to really try a different approach this time around with prep. I really want to make strength a focus and try to maintain as much of that as possible as I continue to get deeper into prep. As I have followed along through Berto's prep this season, he has exemplified just that and I feel that I could gain a lot through his knowledge and guidance. Also at this time throwing around the idea of possibly doing a local PL meet here in GA mid july early august as another personal goal and challenge of trying to be at my best relatively deep into prep. If i do end up competing this summer it would be strictly just for personal goals and to have a little fun! So I am looking forward to having Berto in my corner along with Jason who up to this point has been such a blessing to me as he has kept a close eye over every little detail.

    Weight: 186.4 Second day at this new low, no complaints here.

    Thanks bud, seeing some changes early on has been exciting for me! You nailed it on the head, keeping things in check is what I need I tendend to have a more is better mentality last year and i think it hurt me in the long run. I am really excited about the opportunity to learn and improve during prep!

    Awesome PR on those floor presses brah.

    Question.. how do you set yourself up to do these? I wanted to experiment with them since I've never done them. Also, any good insight on the particular advantages (over regular DB pressing?)

    Thanks Bud!

    I actually have someone hand them to me when I am lying down ready to go. I think they have really helped my pressing strenght and transition well into either DB's or Flat bench. I start on the floor, traps squeezed together and press then back to a complete stop on the floor before pressing again. Also puts a good amount of emphasis on the triceps! Try em out man

    Your workouts are looking awesome and I love the additional power and hypertrophy day, if I wasn't trying to stay structured in a timeframe for my meet I would add them. After my meet I will probably try that out, I may follow it up on how you do it possibly. Also matt do you all live in. Kentucky or ohio?

    Thanks bud, I have really enjoyed adding them in as well. I kinda play with shoulders and go by feel depending on how well/recovered my benching goes the day before but I at least always hit back, calves and bi's.

    I'm looking at doing a local meet here in Ga July 16 just for the added challenge of maintaining and trying to set PR's during prep so I am looking forward to that! So that answers your question but I do travel up to Kentucky a lot cause my girlfriend goes to UK.
