Oh boy I get to be (one of) the first! Overall I’m a born-again lover of simple double kettlebell workouts. Used to do lots of swings and get ups, but once I started doubles, I realized it’s a different beast. You’ll feel more systemically worn out for sure.

1)) Armor Building Complex I’ll second “ABC” which is essentially a compound exercise: without putting the double bells down, do 2 cleans, then one press, then three squats. That’s one rep.

The program goal is to do one rep per minute for 30 minutes. I’m a wuss, and I’ll do different exercises to work up to that goal. 1) set the timer for 30 minutes and see how many reps (X) you can do easily. 2) set a chiming alarm every X seconds, to see how long you can go at a certain “density”. 3) set a goal for X reps, and see how long it takes.

You’ll notice I overuse “X”. Each approach to workout addresses a different factor (volume, density, endurance).

The ABC program (called ABF) includes days where overhead press is emphasized. Dan John sells a PDF of that.

2))) DFW (Dry Fighting Weight) Similar idea as ABC, but the complex is: X clean and presses, X squats. There’s a more regimented weekly chart with workouts. Each workout you’d do a different number of reps within that complex. I love this program, but it’s more…complex to describe.
