OFF-season Practice Routine
Disclaimer: Everything that I do is only what I do. The training, the shooting, the nutrition... it's my deal. Read, watch, and make your own decisions. You can try my style or take bits and pieces...or go the opposite direction. Regardless, thanks for checking out what I do and the products that I use. Keep that needle moving in the right direction! Announcement: I have decided to part ways with MR and signed on with EXO MOUNTAIN GEAR. I had an opportunity to try out their pack first to see for myself which is critical. I am really looking forward to saving some serious weight, having better access to gear with genius engineering and design. I'm always looking to evolve and this was really an easy decision. I have a strong relationship with the founder Steve Speck and look forward to the bright future. Monday 02/15/16 1. TnG snatches 2min rest b/t sets 5 at #155 4 at #175 3 at #190 2 at #195 2.
