*Here are a few shots from progress after visualizing and commiting to a new task of bringing me in at a middle weight versus a light-heavy.

Decisions were made with my coach Fakhri Mubarak to bring a much more conditioned look this year so we revamped things for the goal.

Always condition is the goal; yet this time required attention to detail and a lot of thought on a regular basis from Fakhri as I continued to place all my focus in getting my 196lb body down to make weight of 176.25lb a little under 9 weeks away.
