Another weekend at EliteFTS in the books, and a great one at that. Learn to Train is in my opinion, one the of the greatest investments you can make as a competitive lifter, gym rat, or coach. I have attended all 3, with 2 being an attendee, and this past one as a coach. I was asked by Dave a few weeks ago to help Dr. Ryan Smith with the mobility station. With that, I'll give you my Top highlights of the weekend.
1. The Atmosphere- Everyone always talks about how awesome it would be to train at a place like EFS. Well, now you know. If you have a place like EFS within 3 hours of you, make the investment in yourself and get your ass out there. My 2 hour drive is nothing to the drive some of the guys like Andy Deck and Vincent Dizenzo have been making for years to train with a good crew.
Me, Joey Smith, Ted Toalston, Steve Diel
2. Attendee's - This is why we were all there. We were there to help these people get better. We had 5 groups throughout the day. I stuck towards the back and watched over a few different people. In each group, I chose a couple guys that I saw could benefit from another lifter like myself reassuring them this stuff really does work. I was blown away by how receptive the attendee's were to me and my direction in helping them out. I can't thank them enough for giving me the opportunity to do so.
3. Dinner- Both Friday and Saturday most of the sponsored lifters and volunteers headed out to dinner. It's always a good time with these guys. Dave really has put together a great group of guys.
This weekend was one I won't soon forget. Being around 80 people that have the same goal you do...to get Stronger. There really is nothing like it. I can't thank Dave Tate enough for giving me the opportunity to help.
Until next time...
About as serious as we got all weekend...
