And Thats A Wrap For This Past Strength Cycle…
And An Awesome Strength Cycle It Was!!!
A Lot Of OverHead Squattin’… A Lot Of Pressin’ From Behind The Neck… A Lot Of Snatchin’… A Lot Of Bench Pressin’… A Lot Of DeadLifts… And Most Importantly…
A Lot Of Learnin’!!!
I Hope That This Strength Cycle Got You Even Just A Little More Comfortable With OverHead Squats… If You Can’t OverHead Squat… You Can’t Snatch… So When You Ask… “Coach… How Can I Improve My Snatch?!?!” Well… There’s A Lot Going On During The Snatch Movement… But Bottom Line… You Have To Be Able To Stand Up Whatever You Throw Over Your Head…
Now That You Got Your Feet Wet With OverHead Squats & Snatches… Expect To See Them A Lot More In The Near Future…
This UpComing Week Is Going To Be “Fun”… I’ll Leave It @ That…
Now To The Good Stuff!!!
Alright…
Larry & Michelle…
Remember Those 2 Early Bird 5AMers?!?!
Well… They’ve Been MIA For A Lil’ Bit… But I Guess They Had/Have A Legit Reason…
They Had A Baby!!!
Baby Mikayla Was Born On June 3rd, 2019…

Speaking Of Babies…
Guess Who’s Expecting?!?!
Rick & Jenelle Pulled Me Aside After The 12:15PM Session This Past Friday…
And In A Nice… Calm Tone… Rick Said To Me… “Hey Man… Jenelle’s Probably Going To Have To Take It Easy The Next Few Months…” And I Already Knew!!! He Then Pulled Out His Phone & Showed Me The Ultra Sound!!!

Happy Father’s Day To All The RainCross Dads!!!
I’m Not A Dad… I Have No Idea How It Feels To 1st Hold “Your Little Girl Or Boy”… But From What I Can See & From What I Hear… It’s A Life Changing Event… What I’ve Also Seen/Heard… Sometimes… A Lot Of Times… Dad’s Can Go Un-Noticed… I Get It… Dads Are “Guys”… We Don’t Need Roses & Brunches…
I’m Not A Dad… But I Have Been Blessed With Many “Dads” In My Life… My Mom… My Grandpa Joe & Grandpa Johnny… My Grandma Delia & Grandma Gerry… My Auntie Veronica… My Uncle Mike & Uncle Jay… My Step Dad Martin…
Don’t Think For A Second That You Guys Don’t Go Un-Noticed!!! All Have Play A “Dad” Role In My Life…
And I’m Sure The Same Goes For All Our RainCross Dads… Hell… I See It… All Of You Are Such Hard Workers In The Gym… I Can’t Even Imagine How Hard You Work For Your Family!!!
Happy Father’s Day RainCross Dads!!!
