Today we took the ride down to Skiba's Barbell Club in Carteret so that Clint (FC) could get his first taste of the monolift in preparation for his December 10th debut meet, the WNPF Sarge McCray meet. Clint had a good day getting acclimated quickly to the mono. He successfully RAW squatted 390, before failing on 420. At that point he took the 420 with a reverse band, ad doubled mini band, and then took 450. He pulled 495, and 545 for singles. Then he pulled 565 all the way up, just with some slight hitching. This is a good gauge for us 17 weeks out as to what to expect come meet day. Right now his numbers look as: 405, 255, 545. I'd like to get some definite improvement for him between now and meet day. I have written out a training schedule for him to prepare him right for this meet. Thanks again to Henri Skiba, for opening his doors to us and allowing us to come down and use his facility. Once again if you are in the Central or North Jersey area and are looking for a club give Skibs a call at 732-598-9369.
