Manhattan Beach AVP is finally here!

The back has healed and my partner, Derek Sorensen, and I had a good showing last weekend in Santa Monica at the Corona Wide Open tournament where we took a 9th place with a 3-2 record. We both pretty much took the week off to rest up for the Manhattan Beach AVP Qualifier tomorrow.

We are the #15 seed in the qualification tournament and will have to win two matches to make it into the main draw. As mentioned in this blog, I’m playing beach volleyball competitively again because I love playing on the big stage and I’d like to be able to say that I played professionally on the AVP on the new short court as well as the old-school big court. My progress can be tracked through this link – http://www.bvbinfo.com/Tournament.asp?ID=2121&Process=QBracket

Wish me luck as I battle younger and just as hungry as me competition. There are no easy days and I expect to be fully tested in order to receive my prize…it’s always more fulfilling that way anyway. Let’s do this!!!!

About virtualworkoutpartner

My first desire to become knowledgable about fitness came in the mid-90's as a professional athlete (beach volleyball) on the AVP Tour. I sought to understand what I could do to improve my ability to compete at higher levels. I've been able to achieve incremental gains via consistent efforts. This approach is healthy and provides long-term benifits in a multitude of ways. I hope this Blog will encourage, motivate and educate those who also seek to improve themselves through a lifestyle based in regular exercise and making good choices.
