The long awaited arrival of my training journal is finally over. My program is a combination of the slow lifts (Deadlift, Squat, and Bench) as well as the fast lifts (Olympic lifts and Oly assisting lifts). I incorporate chains and bands in my training to. 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.
