Arnold 2013 write up!

March 7, 2013 / / No comments

Quick summery of the entire weekend – Cut a crap load of weight, squatted well, sucked at bench and deadlift!

Now for the details!

I started my weight cut from 266 lbs. This is way too much to do, I hate cutting, but I let myself get fat and had to pay my debts because of it. » Read more..

Operation RE-BLOAT

March 1, 2013 / / No comments

The Operation RE-BLOAT that I did today was a terrific success! As of 9 pm est, my weight is back over 260 lbs! Not Bad, put about 20 lbs on in a day.

While I was going through hell this morning, I was thinking about all the people that helped me get to this spot in life.

My family, of course, has been a huge part and I thank you guys for that!

My current training partners, Jay Nera, Kade Weber and Jack O’Rourke. With the drive that you guys help me with, I wouldn’t have had my best training cycle ever!

The guys at Quest in Cornwall, and the Anvil in Toronto! You guys are amazing!!

Richard Brown, you have been a huge help this week and thanks in advance for tomorrow!!

Shannon, you have been amazing. But, that’s not news too me, you do that all the time!

And, last but not least, Paul V. The whole time I was cutting weight, all I thought about was how much I disappointed in Toronto 4 years ago, and how I never want to disappoint you again! Thanks for getting me over the hump!

Now time to relax and sleep! Up early and the meet starts at 8 am. I will be in the third flight with some of the best lifters in the world!

Big things coming!

We are heading out to the Arnold Classic on Thursday morning at 5 AM!!

Life update [picture and video]

November 18, 2012 / / No comments

I haven’t been updating my blog lately, because I haven’t really been training that much.

In the last couple weeks I might have been training once a week. This is a terrible time for this to happen as I’m only a couple weeks out from my next meet December 1st. But, life happens!

Squatting has felt great, and 3 weeks ago when I benched last, it felt awesome too.

Life has changed a lot since my last post too!!! Shannon and I now have a dog! She is a cutie, just like me. We found out that we will be having a baby boy in April!!! Odin Benjamin Church!!

And to top this crazy crazy couple weeks, Shannon turned the big old Dirty 30 yesterday! We spent the day with friends chatting and catching up!

It’s been a fantastic couple weeks for my life… not so much for my lifting, but I will get through this and come out with a PR total!!

Odin Benjamin Church
