Well, this is Bernie's "prep week" for her come-back meet this Saturday, March 28th. This will be her first meet since her rotator cuff surgery to see how her shoulder holds up. We expect it to hold up well, and if so, then she'll take a couple weeks to relax, then start preparing for her 3rd National Meet in July. (NO Pressure . . . she won this meet 2 years in a row. Same with Nationals....... fingers crossed on the shoulder!)  Count-Down time for her! ;D |

Wishing the best for Bernie! She is a survivor, and I'll bet she gets through this one and does great at the national meet also! Good luck, Bernie!  |

I have not really talked to you or Greg in along time...I did not know she was competing this weekend. I hope she does very well, which I am sure she will! She is one TOUGH and STRONG cookie! I wish her the best and I agree wth Gerry, she will end up at a national meet after this one!

I read this thread to Bernie, ans she said to tell EVERYONE THANK YOU!
Mo, when I read your question to her, she said to tell you she is, "All the above"!
When I spoke with Greg today, he said this meet is just for Bernie to get back on the platform after her surgery. No other expectations.
BUT. . . I know my wife. If she's up to it Saturday, she may lay back on her bench press, but I think she'll push it a little on her squat and dead lift.
She's trying to stay calm, just doing light machine work this week to rest her body. Watching her diet becuase she is "right on" her competition weight right now.
We'll be ready to rock!

Hope all is well.

She's doing fine.
The last week before a meet, she normally just does some light circuit exercises on machines Monday & Wednesday. The rest of the week is just relax and let your muscles prepare for Saturday.
Eat, sleep & poop is the only order of the week.
She'll be ready to rock.
