It was good to squat again seeing how I have not been able to squat in a long time at a decent weight. I did feel my injury during the squat so I really have no idea what is going to happen during the season but I am going to play until I can not play anymore. I have been giving some thought to what I want to do after lacrosse is over whether that is soon or later on in life and I have come up with one thing as of right now. I know this is a long shot and you may think I am crazy for thinking it but I would want to try for the world record bench press at 165lbs body weight. My thinking in this is that my bench has always been my best lift I am only 19 and I can bench 300lbs with a regular bench. Taking time to learn a powerlifting bench would eventually add weight to my max as well. Focusing on the bench for a serious amount of time and with the right training from a world record holder at my gym might give me a shot at this goal. This is of course a tough challenge but after lacrosse I need something tough to shoot for. I was so used to getting a lot of attention in high school for my athletic ability and going from that to nothing last year was kind of shitty and I want to make something of my self again whether it is lacrosse or going for something that might not even happen. Any ways these are just thoughts going threw my messed up head. We will see how everything plays out in the future.
