Update
I’m nearly six weeks out from the day I had surgery. I was supposed to be able to return to the powerlifting routine I had gotten six weeks into before I had my gallbladder attack.
I have decided to utilize my tax return and sign up with Max Muscle in order to start training for the Bluffs Classic. It doesn’t take place until September, so that gives me plenty of time to get ready for it. The powerlifting program I was shooting for takes place at the end of March. I will not be able to train for THAT meet. However, the Iowa one usually takes place in late October, early November. I believe I can lean up for the Bluffs Classic and then turn around and train for the 100% Raw Powerlifting in late fall.
I refuse to be set back by this surgery. I will meet my goals. I will compete this year in both powerlifting and body competitions.
Right now, I have been keeping up on light cardio work. My busy schedule ends at the end of February and that’s when I should have my tax return and ability to meet with Max Muscle for assistance in nutrition and training. I do not return to school until fall semester of this year, so I have plenty of time on my hands to dedicate to training.
Wish me luck!
