Feeling this incredible urge to actually make some photos again. It's weird. Cue the montage of me returning to my roots. Pic not related.

You ever try to keep a straight face during a clean pull? Well let me tell you something, buddy: it's not easy. And we're not talking about Windex here, wise guy. #clean #pull #xgonnagiveittoya #wereallgonnamakeitbrah #girlswholift

Went up to the fit expo to hang out with @being_frank_yang . We bro hugged, and in that instant, suddenly I was able to see with incredible clarity. I saw through the facade of the fitness industry and into its core, which held the insecurities and deficiencies that we build muscle to cover up. Or maybe it was just the 5 hour energy free sample. Idk. It was fun. Thanks for the pic @st_natethegreat (at Los Angeles Convention Center)

Santa came early this year, and he brought these sick gainz #zyzz #wereallgonnamakeitbrah #rip (at Above the Clouds)

When you realize you still have another 361 days to get through without dropping the ball

When you can't get in on the fun of saying "new year, new me" because you've always been great 😭 On the real tho, I'm constantly blown away by how #blessed I am. I've been surrounded by so many good people who've done so much to help me out, and so many seemingly impossible coincidences…taking a step back and looking at it as a whole it all just seems so bizarre, but in a good way. It makes me think "why me?" I don't know, maybe I'm just a sap, but thank you all. Except for Steve. (at Retrospect)

Just casually practicing some pulls, idk how the camera went off…or the three flashes #snatch (at It's a Joke)

When you can't accept that Christmas is over

One day late but Merry Christmas from everyone here at @edwardshair ! #steveisametaphor (at The North Pole)

I only set two goals for 2016: 1. talk 50% less, and 2. deadlift 405 lbs. I failed 1. in the first 8 hours, but yesterday I was able to pull 405 lbs. Couldn't have done it without mah boys @noel.gragasin @peter_c_sales @proto_jay #allhomobro #girlswholift #legtwerk #zyzzbrah #wereallgonnamakeitbrah (at 24 Hour Fitness - Bonita, CA)
