About Me

My photo
I am 20 years old at Springfield College. I started Crossfit in the winter of 2008 and have went on and off with that and P90x. But since the summer of 2009 until summer of 2011 I did Crossfit then switched to Strength and Conditioning. I Played soccer lacrosse basketball and ran track throughout my life. I played lacrosse at Endicott but I was injured and did not play the entire season. Another passion is strength and conditioning which has changed my life for the better. My midterm goal is to compete in a powerlifting competition, run an ultra and run the Boston Marathon, and my ultimate long term goal is to become a Strength and Conditioning coach, a lacrosse coach, and to open my own Strength and Conditioning gym as well as break the record for bench press at 165lbs bw. Along with training for my goals I enjoy pushing my body to its limits and seeing what the human body is capable of by doing activities that require a lot of physical and mental aspects.

Supplements: Glucosamine 1500mg, Chondroitin 1200mg, MSM 75mg
Notes: I had a great day training today. The pr on the squat was awesome and I probably could have went for 5 at 305 if I was doing a 3x5. I had a different endurance workout planned but after I walked out of my class at about 1pm I immediately changed my mind to a nice long enjoyable run because of how nice it was out. I had no goal no set distance when I went out I just went and it was so much more enjoyable and I feel like I got a lot more out of it. I am going to make sure I keep that in mind when I am running long from now on I just enjoy it so much more when it was like this. There was also some points on this run when I was running alongside a beach and all I could smell was the ocean breeze...It was really something else. Such a great feeling. This Saturday I am hitting up some trails near my school with Ben. This is the trails that Ben did his firs 50k on so they should be awesome to run on.

  1. Those are by far the best runs. No planned route, no time frame, just go and see where your legs will take you. Good stuff.
