I am a drug-free powerlifter. After a 14 year layoff, I have once again started competing. I won the 2016 Rocky Mountain Regionals, 2017 Utah State, and took 3rd at the Drug-tested Nationals. The goal of this blog is to relay some information that I have found helpful so that other busy dads can get back into the game, whether they are powerlifting, or getting back into shape.

Check out this campaign for adaptive training equipment!
An old friend of mine owns a gym and is raising money for adaptive training equipment so he can focus on wounded warriors and others with physical challenges. Take a look at the campaign please and pass this around. Here is what Zack has to say about his goal:
Why do I keep posing this annoying gofundme? Because I believe it's my calling. Many of you know and some don't. I've carried a gun for 17 years before I got hurt in Baghdad 2 years ago. After 2 surgeries I am told I won't ever be able to do those kind of jobs again, this crushed my soul, like more then I can put into words. I have no other passion, I don't feel value unless there is a chance I am in harms way protecting people. Then it happened. An injured/amputee vet rolled into the gym asking for help. And I found a new passion that didn't involve a gun or a crappy place in the world. I found something I love..... where I get to be in gym, figure out different ways to work around obstacles and help people both mentally and physically. With the help of Melanie Medlock, Brad Anderson and John Gendron we have developed programs for Adaptive Athletes and started something big. There is very few places in the US that specialize in Adaptive training... But Freedom Training Center is one of them. We are a small owned business and need your help. Please share this post... 100 Bizillion Percent of proceeds go towards Adaptive equipment to help these athletes out!!! Thank you in advance for your contributions, your thoughts and your prayers...
