2017 US Open Recap


San Diego bound :)

The US Open is here!

The guys weighed in this morning. I weigh in tomorrow.

I woke up at weight this morning. Yay!

Now I just have to make it through today.

It is almost 4pm as I write this. And to be honest.. I am very hungry! LOL.

But everything will be okay. After weigh ins... I get to re-fuel and hydrate.

After this meet, Tony and I have some fun things planned.. Well one thing in particular!

We are going to Hawaii! I cannot wait! It will be Tony's first time there! <3

LOL! It is now Monday 4/17/17.

I never got to finishing this blog over the weekend.

Friday I was just hanging out with Tony and Doyle. Watching them eat after their weigh-ins. Ha. Then Saturday I weighed in, and got to eat and cheer the big guys on!

It was amazing seeing all the strong guys. It was also quite scary seeing how many of the guys bombed out or got injured. This was a big meet with a lot of money on the line. And it seemed like some of the guys were really putting it all out there for the win.

Tony finished with 3rd place in his weight class!

I am so proud of him! He hit PRs in everything!

777 squat, 501 bench, and a 722 deadlift. & a 2000lb total!

He is absolutely amazing!!!

I was tired from cheering him on for the day. Hahaha.

I might have screamed a little too much and too hard!

And mister Shawn Doyle won his weight class. And finished 3rd in the overall competition in day one.

He's a beast! And that wasn't even a good day of lifting for him. LOOK AT MY BOYS! -------------------->

I call us the three musketeers! Lol.

I don't think Doyle likes it too much! Oh well!

ENOUGH ABOUT THE GUYS!

LET'S TALK ABOUT THE LADIES!

Oh my gosh!!! Day two of the US Open was absolutely insane!

I knew that I was going to be competing against the best in the world.. But DAMN! These girls were insane!

Pound for pound, the girls were stronger than all of the guys! CRAAAZZZYYY!

It was such an awesome experience being able to share the platform with the best of the best! It was even more awesome being able to meet these ladies!

They were all such badass women! But the sweetest things ever!

I've got to say.. That was my favorite part of the weekend!

Having the chance to meet everyone and talk to them.

Everyone that competed this weekend more than deserved to be there (even me)!

Girl or guy.. We all work our asses off day in, and day out!

And everyone I talked to.. Was ready to get right back to work! AMAZING!

This weekend was so humbling and inspiring! It turned out better than I could have ever imagined!

Oh shoot! I guess I should say how I did in the meet! LOL.

I went 7/9.

314 squat, 194 bench, 341 deadlift. 850 total!

I definitely cannot complain about that. I added about 40lbs to my total from my meet only 4 weeks ago!
