    Dan this a clean, concise, and well produced video. With clean audio, excellent b-roll video demonstrating the movement and just enough text on screen for clarity. It shows you put time, effort and thought into testing the reps and then producing the video. Thanks for sharing.

    The Armor Builder has been one of my go-to's for a decade. It's easy to remember, it's heavy, works me hard, but I don't get smoked. Right in the sweet spot. Awesome to see a single bell version so that my lonely 32kg bell gets some love.

    I love the OG ABC! I travel a lot for work & usually keep 2- 24kg & a 16kg in my Jeep & do the ABC, some halos & goblet squats as microworkouts, or go anywhere from 10-30 min & anywhere from a few sets (every hour on the hours), or just one or two during a 12 hour shift. Just so much benefit, & variety we can get from the kb. Thanks coach!

    As always brilliant "program". Did 15 rounds with 24kg (needed to push press due to issue in right shoulder). EMOM would have been to intense with only ~15sec rest. Started every round after 90sec - so took me 22min. Will go the next 4-6 weeks with nothing else but this 3x per week and play with duration and size of the bell. Might chip in some pullups 2-3 times a week. Again many thanks!

    Thank you for the armour Complex 1.0 and 2.0!
    About a month ago I started including the Armour Building Complex in my workouts and it's fantastic.
    I have modified it a bit . I do 4 sets of ABC following by a minute rest. And I do this 10 times. Great workout in less than 20 minutes! I really look forward to this workout.
    Thank you again!

  • @MarkJYule
    @MarkJYule ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I've been playing with the ABC using 16s and 20s of late.
    I set my timer at 1 minute and start with 2/1/3, then down - takes about 20 odd seconds. On the minute I then do 3/2/4 - taking 35-40 seconds. On the next minute I do 4/3/5 which takes about 45 seconds. On the next minute I go back to 2/1/3 etc. Repeat for 3-5 rounds of ladders.
    I do a single complex using 30 seconds x 20 on my timer.
    Clean - Press - Step back lunge - press whilst in lunge (don't rack) - step up with k/b overhead - rack and squat. Takes about 20 seconds. Bell down for 10 and go with the other side on the bleep. This is a variant of a complex from Brett's " Iron Cardio" - well worth buying!
    These are sneaky with regards to HR - short rests keep my HR over 140 and sometimes 150 with the doubles.

    Thanks Coach -- will try this out today! I love the original armor building but I've got only single bells of each weight. I've tried the original many times just repeating the workout with each side but as you said, that's a lot of volume! I've also tried with different sized bells and just alternate sides each round which adds it's own nice flavor as you get some asymmetry. This looks perfect.

    Hello, Dan, thank you so much for the complex, it is just I was looking for. The first time I did a trial with a 16 kg kettlebell, the result was 20 rounds in 27,5 minutes. A day later, I used a 20 kg kettlebell, the result was 20 rounds in 32 minutes. I am 66 years old. I am sure I will start to include the complex in the training schedule. It was possible to slightly raise the tempo, but hyperthermia did not allow it. At the end, I added a farmer's walk (40 seconds per hand) and several pull-ups (biceps). With greetings from Russia.

    Lovely, ABC is one of my favorite go-to, whether I want true heavy strength focus and more endurance-conditioning. Doubles works super good for the strength part, but as you so brilliant point out if you use singles (my preferred setup for endurance) your squat volume can be quite massive. I like ABC 2.0 and I will add it in to my go-to repository for sure!

    I had scheduled myself to do the regular ABC with double 50 lb KBs today, but I was sore in the legs from your Humane Burpee workout and some pistol squats I did.
    Because I was sore, I decided to use a lighter kettlebell (35 lbs) and up the pace to make it a little less legs and more cardio. I only had one 35lb bell, so I did this workout.
    Enjoyed it. More akin to jogging than sprint repeats. Seemed to emphasize the press a little more. Pretty similar though, and a nice workout.
    Next week when I do the Humane Burpee again I think I will be better adapted, so I'll go back to double 50s.

      That is what I started this idea with, the 28. The issue with the load is like Days 10-15...it just starts to grind.

      @@DanJohnStrengthCoach my weaknesses were 1. pressing and 2. holding rack position at the bottom of the squat with my weak arm, but I progressed significantly during my holidays, given they didn't last long enough for me to get used to the weight jump from single 24kg (or double 24 and 20 kg) and get past the 15 day mark...
      I replaced the hand change with a flying hand change, eliminating the swing in the middle, and added a squat instead. so, for me the sequence was
      rh clean & press, rh clean (the bottom part) & change to lh for the top part, press & 3 squats with the KB on the lh. approximately 25"
      5" rest,
      lh clean & press, lh clean (the bottom part) & change to rh for the top part, press & 3 squats with the KB on the rh
      with 1:30 per round I had 5" rest between switching sides and 35" rest at the end of one rep. failure always came from pressing with the rh or holding rack with the rh at the bottom of the squat, never from my quads. but that might be because of my physique. just for info, i weigh around 72kg which makes a 28kg KB more than 1/3 of my bodyweight and went up to 6-7 rounds this time
      I did feel the results. excellent program, will come back to it next time and hopefully go up to 20 rounds if i stay long enough

    Dan, I have a 40 and a 45 pound KB. Would you recommend using the two and alternating hands for 2H ABC. Otherwise I’ll use 1. I am just avoiding buying a second 40 pound KB

    To confirm, 30 seconds rest after every round of 1 C&P per side, and 2 front squats? Any recommendation on how long one should do this for in one workout?
    As always, thanks for the great material!

      @DanJohnStrengthCoach  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Depends. That’s how I do it. But you can really make any variation work. It’s not set in stone. It’s just a way for somebody who only has a single Kettle Bell to do this work out.

    I’d like to alternate this with S&S because I love doing swings and getups and want to keep them in my regimen as much as possible. Can I do S&S in the same week as this? If so how often should I do each. If not how often should I alternate between the two? Thank you in advance.

    Ah, that's why my friends suggested me to stop working out my buttocks...to many squats in ABC it was ))
    Switched to this updated version as I only have 1 kb and yes, 30sec is barely enough for one full round even if do not touch down in between and using my recreational 16k...so agreed on the analog wall clock being valid option) But as I can see now, with semi-round pause, we add up in symmetry which is not the thing to ignore with health in mind.
    A bit of practice to break into the new pace and it works great with higher push : squat ratio, really liked it!
    Many thanks!

    Question: why the 2x squats on one side rather than simply:
    clean / press / squat, switch hands and repeat.
    or: clean / squat / press, switch hands and repeat,
    Is there some specific advantage to the 2x squats in a row ?

    2 CL right
    2 press right
    2 FS right
    Drop and
    Repeat same with left.
    total volume 2 CL both side, 2 press both sides, 2 FS both side Mean 4 front squat total so volume is almost same except changing swing. Is it a good modification if i have only one 20 ?

    Excellent - thanks a great sequel to an already great complex. Just set the time for 45 seconds instead of worrying about the second-hand sweep for 30 extra seconds? Edit: did 15 rounds each side with a 20kb (my usual double abc weight). Felt great, probably will try it with 24 next time.
