What I’ve found out over this winter break-
-Working in an ice rink (any low level service position) sucks. I wish I had a license to punch stupid people, it would save a fair share of problems.
-It’s great to come back and hang out with my best friends, we are possibly the most awesome group on earth. We haven’t really changed and it’s more fun that way.
-It’s much easier to keep to workouts at home with a lifting partner. For once I feel like I actually got better as a track athlete on my “vacation”
-Growing up means your problems become more expensive, cue 1100 dollar tires.
-I need more real world, meaning any, medical experience. Before I spend the next 10 years in school, residency and fellowship along with at least a quarter million in debt.
-I have no idea whether I should get a job this summer while taking 15 credits, or try to get in to a hospital to shadow a doctor. Either I’m broke all summer, or remain without medical experience.
-All in all a good winter break. Never very relaxing but good none the less. Next stop, spring break!
2 days until my 21st! Sooo pumped! Now what to do tonight/tomorrow?

A trip to Mclendons, some PVC, bolts, scrap wood, and a couple hours later I have a finished 42” college hurdle!
Upper Body
Who ever thought 3x12 bench at 135lbs would be hard? 1 min rest says it’s hard haha. Feels good today, upper body went very well. Body weight is 168.2lbs. post training and dinner. I’m looking at my body weight log from last year, and on June 22nd (the first time I recorded my weight) I was at 161.8, my low was 159.8 on June 29th of last year. So this year I’m starting out somewhere around 8lbs heavier, about same body fat %, and I feel less broken. Already starting out well, trying to get above 170 ASAP!
The heaviest I was recorded at last summer was 169.2 in early August, with most other measurements in the 167’s, so I’m way above last summer yayyy!
