Meet and training planning

I will be doing the Wisconsin state meet at the end of January, and then targeting nationals again.

After a much needed week off, I will have 30 weeks to prepare for the state meet.  During this time most of my effort will be put into 6-week blocks.  The main things I will be targeting are strengthening the low back for deadlift, adding some size to my upper body for bench, and 12 weeks of solid raw work on squat before starting to add gear.

The first 6-week block will start off pretty light and with higher reps and be largely linear, particularly on squat and deadlift.  Then I'll likely move into a more Sheiko-styled loading pattern and carry that through the meet.
