Here's a question I once got:

Are complexes bad for your strength?

The answer is — as always — "it depends".

Depends on your goals, depends on whom you ask, etc.

First of all, what is a complex?

According to Retired Master SFG Geoff Neupert in his book Kettlebell Muscle, a complex is:

"…a series of exercises performed in a sequence with the same weight and without rest. All the reps for a given exercise are performed first, before moving on to the next exercise."

Sounds like fun. But is it the RIGHT answer for YOUR needs?

We dive into this on this jam-packed episode of The Hammer Cast.
