Brutal Barbell Complex

If you’re short on time in the gym, or just want to mix it up, give this brutal barbell complex a try.

• 5 cleans
• 10 thrusters
• 10 RDLs
• 5 reverse lunges
• 10 back squats

You will not be able to go very heavy here and I don’t usually have people do more than 2-3 rounds. The key to a complex is that the weight stays in your hands (or on you) the entire time. Once you get past the RDLs, the bar is on your back and your grip gets a break.
