      I have some equipment at home (a bar, some plates, and an erratic collection of dumbbells), but not much space, so with the gyms closing I’ve been getting creative. Deadlifts and o-lifts are in the kitchen, because it’s the only flat surface with no ceiling fan, but it’s narrow so I can’t do much else there. The bench fits on the back porch, but with no rack the hubby has to hand me the bar once it gets above about 75 pounds. Even though that porch is uneven brick, I squat there too, because it’s the only place my “squat stands” fit – aka 4X4s with a notch cut at the top set in concrete in 5 gallon buckets.

      I’m still training for the postals, but I also found a strongman competition in October to train for that I probably won’t go to, just to give myself another goal. My yoke is currently 5-gallon buckets filled with water hung on the end of my bar. Can’t wait for the gyms to reopen.

          I’ll be coming from Vegas, actually. I’m flying into Kansas City, so driving in from that direction.

            I think I’m going to be able to make this my first non-postal meet, and I can’t wait!

            I was wondering if anyone had any hotel recommendations for the area – it looks like there are a couple in Kearney, and some in Cameron. Any tips would be appreciated! Thanks.
