For now, my training is just to get me back in the swing of things b/c I was out of the gym for a 3 or so months during the summer. I'll start pushing it in Dec/Jan.
You'll be able to see what I'm doing every week from lifting, conditioning, BJJ, etc. Since this is still my competition season for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu I may miss a workout here and there. No Gi Worlds is in 2 weeks.
This journal is interesting because I'm a 2 sport athlete and compete at a high level in both so you'll get to see how I manage things and try to train both at the same time without overtraining or just getting burnt out.
Today was a light pull day and here's what I did:
Snatch High Pulls (Med Blocks): 175lbsX2, x2, x2, x2, x2
Deadlift (conventional): 275lbsX5, 315lbsX5, 355lbsX5
Seated Good Morning: 135lbsX5, 155lbsX5, 175lbsX5, 195lbsX5
Low Cable Row: 170lbsX8, 200lbsX8, 220lbsX8, 240lbsX8
Hammer Curl: 40lbsX10, 50lbsX10, x10
If your doing seated good mornings you have great flexibility on top of strength.
Re: The She Beast Bible...
To be honest, I have never seen a seated good morning. I incorporate standing good mornings in every leg session.
Re: The She Beast Bible...
Seated Good Mornings are just a variation. It does a good job of isolating the lower back and taking the hamstrings out of the movement. It's quite popular with Olympic weightlifters as well as powerlifters.
Give them a try sometime and I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

Don't forget my other sport, BJJ. BJJ requires a great deal of flexibility to be successful. It's a fine line I walk working on strength while trying not to sacrifice flexibility.

I agree..Iv;e always tried to maintain my flexibility on top of being powerful(at least while younger )...a bit hard but so many benefits, I never practiced BJJ, but was involved in boxing as a kid, and later some martial arts..
Re: The She Beast Bible...
Trained Gi BJJ at Noon today for 2 hours and I'll be going back at 7:00pm to train No Gi for an hour. Just getting a little more mat time before I head out to No Gi Worlds.
Re: The She Beast Bible...
Yesterday I rolled at noon and trained after. I cut my workout short but got in and did what I needed to do. I did Power Cleans and Push Presses.
This morning I trained BJJ at 7am.
I'm focusing on my BJJ right now because I have No Gi Worlds next week.
Re: The She Beast Bible...
Best of luck to you..Although I doubt you will need any 'luck'.
Re: The She Beast Bible...
I missed a training session this week due to getting some extra BJJ training sessions in. I wasn't able to train Legs this week and I'll miss it again next week. I'll be in Cali on Friday and I need to rest up for No Gi Worlds. When I get back I won't be missing days.
I'm also going to change my training a bit after No Gi Worlds. I'll be focusing on my Gi training b/c the No Gi season will be over.
After No Gi Worlds, I'm going to sit down and start laying out my tourneys and a Meet for next year. Than I can create my plan of attack so I don't overdo it. Training for 2 sports at the same time is difficult but can be done if you plan ahead.
