Powerlifting Training 3/20/19
I only did squats at the gym and I did the jump squats and body hollow isometrics when I got home. My workout was cut short, since I dropped off my kids to their activities and I had to pick them up aftewards, but I got what I wanted out of the squats. I had more in the tank on the top set, but I was not trying to peak.

Jiu Jitsu Training 3/22/19
I was training at the Lion Heart Jiu Jitsu gym in Pasadena, CA. I got to roll with my friends for 4 rounds, in which each round was for about 7 minutes. It was great, since I got to work on all kinds of techniques and positions. It was tough though, since it was my 2nd training for the day.
Powerlifting Training 3/23/19
I didn't do well that morning, since I tend to do well on the deadlifts later in the day, but I had to get the training in. I was really slow on the sumo deadlifts that morning, so I switched to deficit deadlifts. I pretty much grind out that workout, but I came out in one piece.

Powerlifting Training 3/27/19
Training was great that day and my squats are definitely going to be my go to event going into the Anaheim FitExpo. This is my last training session in which I have squats and deadlifts in the same session, since I will put more time in training in each movement in separate sessions. Also, I need to work on my deadlift technique, since I have been off of the conventional movement and focused on the sumo deadlifts.

Powerlifting Training 3/30/19
This was my 2nd workout in the day. I had to get the work in to make sure that I keep up with the pressing. I wasn't that tired before training, since the Jiu Jitsu training was short that morning.

Powerlifting Training 3/31/19
I didn't do well in training that morning, since I had three days rest from the previous squat training session and that I was in Disneyland for 2 days straight for about 14 hours in standing, walking, and carrying my kids throughout the day. I'm just glad that I got the training in. I misgroved when I went for the 620lbs for reps, so I stopped at 1 rep. I dropped down, but it took until the 3rd set on the 550lbs to get my technique back and I started feeling confident in repping out the last set.

I felt pretty good today with my technique, so I decided to go heavier. I officially signed up for the USPA Drug Tested Anaheim FitExpo event for the Submasters and Open 275lbs division on the full meet, bench only, and deadlift only. My goal is to set a world record, national records, and state records, while collecting 6 golds that day. The most important part is that I make the weight. I feel confident on hitting all of my lifts and I will definitely be in better condition, then the last meet, since I do not have any Jiu Jitsu competitions prior to this meet.
