I had a lot of fun with this meet, and it may be some of the most fun I’ve had at a meet, and definitely the most fun I’ve had at a national meet thus far. However, I would be lying if I said I wasn’t a bit disappointed in my performance. Squats and dead’s were expected to be a little bit stronger, and could have carried me to that podium spot I was chasing. But still, I am happy with it, as I had to work around an adductor strain for the past 10ish weeks, which was so bad I couldn’t even squat 135lbs 10 weeks ago. Time to bulk and try to push to my full potential in this weight class!
Thank you to @jrflanigan for coaching me through this treacherous prep, and @thepowerliftingprofessor for rehabbing means getting me to full strength quickly and efficiently. Thank you to @tsp_devan for incredible, professional handling on meet day. Thank you to everyone @ritbarbellclub for being a wonderful team and making this meet as fun as it was. Last but not least, thank you to my family, and my amazing girlfriend @_madi._.person_ for supporting me at the meet itself, as well as all the time through my training and everything else.
Also an extra special thank you to @azucar.kg for letting me use her screwdriver to pry open my post weigh in meal, which was vacuum sealed shut! taken in New Orleans, Louisiana by @jonnytwadds

Since the meet went okay, I figured I would stop gatekeeping the incredible peak that made it happen @jrflanigan 😭😭😭. But in all seriousness, I am happy that we were able to manage this injury and still put up a respectable performance despite it. Also my first (and hopefully my last) time having my taper be heavier than my peak.

ATL Jacob ATL Jacob! Even though I don’t hit a huge PR like I wanted to leading up to this meet, I am happy with my performance. I strained my adductor pretty badly 2 weeks out and couldn’t really train squat or deadlift properly since then. Luckily, I was able to recover enough to be able to lift well enough to secure a medal on meet day. Thank you to @jrflanigan for coaching me, @liindsaylifts for being a goated handler, everyone @smgpowerlifting, @antara.jacks, @sbd.sophh, @hestolemymojo, @jacksonlifts_28, my awesome girlfriend @_madi._.person_ for supporting me, and my parents for coming on this trip and supporting and helping afford me all the opportunities I have. Time for a long offseason. Everybody wants to know what I would do if I didn’t get 4th at raw nats… I guess we’ll never know! taken in Atlanta, Georgia by @jonnytwadds

Not the flashiest block, but a very productive and restorative one, and one that I’m pretty proud of. Grateful to put a really solid 3 weeks together and have a good base to build off of for raw nats prep. by @jonnytwadds
