Athletic background?  What you did before powerlifting?
i played various sports my whole life and settled on football through high school

Why Powerlifting?
powerlifting is an amazing way to set goals and achieve them. there’s nothing better than the feeling of walking up on that platform with murder on your mind  

Tell me something about your gym/team.
i train at Athens Health Club in Eldersburg, Maryland. lots of good lifters from our small town train there.

Trying alone or training partner/coach, team?
I like to compete with my little team we like to call barnyard barbell.

Something most people you train with (or those who follow you if you train alone) don't know about you?
I’m actually a big sissy
 
What's your favorite lift?
Squat

Least favorite lift?
Bench Press

Biggest challenge in your training?
Staying motivated in early peak blocks of training.

Ideal training atmosphere?  Focused and dialed in or noisy and high energy?
I like loud 70s country music and no distractions 

Training plan. Do your own programming or have a coach?
Strength Studio TT is what i’ve been using for my 12 week peak. i self program otherwise.

Social media.  Positives and negatives
I like it but i think we rely on it too much

Diet you follow? Supplements?
i eat like a bodybuilder. lots of chicken breast, rice, broccoli, tuna, etc. big fan of PR BREAKER supplements.

Biggest accomplishment in your powerlifting career?
breaking 1600 total and benching 4 wheels 

What's one of your non-powerlifting goals?
to start a family

Finally is there anyone you would like to acknowledge or give a shout out to (team, coach, spouse, sponsors)
