I'm finally back in the gym. I have a meet in mind for mid March. I don't have any high hopes of setting PRs, but I want to be back to about 90% of where I was last summer at least. We'll (hopefully) be moving in August, so this is probably my last chance at a meet in Kansas.

I felt VERY weak this day. I really need to get more consistent with my training and especially with mobility and stretching. I was at a new gym today. It is perfect. No mirrors, plenty of good equipment and weights. The bars could have been better, but it's not much to complain about with a place that gets almost everything right. I need to sign up with these guys and get in there consistently.
