I’m gonna try & make this short & to the point. As this being my first comp of many, I’ve learned quite a lot. The whole 3-4 month prep was easily my best one yet. Dieting/cutting went smoother than ever. Sadly, in powerlifting literally anything can happen. And one word for that is CRAMPS. Man oh man did those get the best of me. My brother & I tried literally everything. Chugging water, consuming sodium, carbs, Bananas, EVERYTHING. Found out later that the main problem was lack of magnesium. So things didn’t go quite as planned. 
All in all, I’m truly grateful for those who came out to support me. But also my brother as a coach. And those who bought a YB shirt, all love goes out to you. We’re still in stock with all sizes to those who are interested in on supporting us! Go buy one! Link is in our bio.
 I also want to shout out thelotfather_ for a lot of mental disciplinary keys that helped with many things along the way like willpower, fatigue, breathing & focus. Thank you so much brotha.
I’m stoked to compete again very soon & use all of this knowledge & setbacks to be mentally & physically prepared.
