155kg / 341 lbs clean and jerk at Virus Series 2 Ft Worth. No other way to say it, but man I was nervous today and it showed on my snatch session. More to come later, but wanted to share this sweet video. I have had an absolute blast this weekend. by @xaqmayer

After coming back from my hernia repair, I had the mindset that comeback PRs are some BS. But let me tell you, that saga was not easy and I have worked hard to get back to some numbers that I can finally claim as a post-op PR. 120kg snatch double and a 146kg CJ double.

Life has been taking me on a strange journey this year but the last thing I want to do is take a back seat. My goal is to show up with joy, optimism, humor, and that Zach Mayer’s eXtreme Lifestyle signature buckwildness. 👅 by @xaqmayer

Today marks 19 years sober. Admitting powerlessness over alcohol at 18 years old was a weird and scary decision, but I cannot imagine life NOT being sober. My outlook on life and my relationship with the world around me is infinitely better because I chose a path that is not steeped in self but is based on contributing to the world around me. A lot of purpose has sprung out of being sober and helping others (which is certainly something I could dedicate more of myself to but I am not here to flagellate myself, nor congratulate myself (per se)). 💞 bottom line is: I am thankful I have a path and sobriety has always been the compass. May I continue to pass in on. by @xaqmayer

Someone told me recently that they hope my year gets better. While I think it will, it could also keep changing and I would be ok with that. I’m not a passenger in this life but I’m not the driver either. I’m going to keep showing up, keep doing my best and I will see what happens. The choice to be optimistic is one I will continue to make. by @xaqmayer

Yesterday our Mom passed away. She passed in the presence of loved ones from complications due to Alzheimer’s Disease. I love and miss my Mom so much but am also grateful she is at rest. She always told us that being a mom was the best thing that ever happened to her and I know that us three kids were her biggest achievement. Mom very much believed in the presence of Guardian Angels and so many of those benevolent spirits were with us yesterday. by @xaqmayer
