A few additional points of clarification: 1) Nutrition. This video assumes the nutrition piece of already in place (and focuses on optimizing training for fat loss). Obviously, this element is a major -- if not the major -- factor in determining body composition. See some of my videos, like Lean and Jacked, for advice on the nutrition front. 2) Actually, that's it : ) Thanks for watching!
At the risk of being that guy: "training for fat loss" isn't really possible, according to the latest research. Check out 'The Exercise Paradox' on Scientific American. tl;dr if you intentionally increase your calorie usage through exercise, the body will reduce calorie usage accordingly in other areas. The end result is that calorie usage remains static whether you swing kettlebells for hours or sit on your ass all day. I wanted to spread awareness of this because there's still way too many people trying to exercise their way out of a bad diet, myself included. For reducing fat, it's diet or nothing.
I love the Great Destroyer complex! It's a real test of will--especially during the rest! Psyching yourself up to do another set of the complex is a bear!
Very helpful and so much better than my way. I literally tried to burn my body fat. It hurt. it hurt real bad. And the hand holding the lighter just shakes too much with the pain. I think your idea is way smarter. Have to go now, the nurse is coming. I wish I had seen this earlier.
Squats should be in there as the third exercise in the sequence? Right? 2 - 3x/week would be solid. You could even alternate every other week (A/B/A, B/A/B) with Armor Building.
@@donfanucci5855 I usually feel the need to tell people that my workouts are often worse than they look. Not sure that applies to this one. It looks awful and is awful!

Isn’t your met w/o simply a variation of the spartan 300 rep w/o? Do yours for 5 rounds x 60 total reps each round.
Pat if fat loss is your main goal how would you program the great destroyer? I notice it’s missing squats?

2 - 3x/week would be solid. You could even alternate every other week (A/B/A, B/A/B) with Armor Building.
Actually, pretty sure I have a video on exactly that recommendation (sorry, forget which one it is, but it's on this channel, I know that much!).
@@KettlebellQuickiesIs it this one?
th-cam.com/video/Yae_zxlpFW8/w-d-xo.html
there are squats
You named it properly the great destroyer because when you’re done, you have to lay down for a month to recover 😂
