Cardio - How Much

The only thing that scares me about some the complexes I saw through the link was all the explosive over head stuff (cleans, etc.).
A) I am a scaredy cat and haven't had proper training for those lifts and
my gym is a tiny RetroFitness (I know, I know, but I joined and signed their soul-binding contract two months before I started weight training), so there isn't much room for stuff like that without hitting someone.
I assume I can swap out those overhead movements with another "push" lift? I don't care if my complexes are slightly boring!
I go to Retro Fitness and my branch is huge. You can go to any branch you want free.0 -
For those that do complexes do you do then after your regular lifting?0

Yes, barbell complexes are done after the regular lifting.....I couldn't imagine getting through some of them and then doing SL.
The complex I had been doing was cleans (starting at just a hanging bar, not from ground)/or upright rows, front squat, Push press, lunges, good mornings, overhead squat. 8 reps each and 3-4 rounds.0 -
They are called finishers for a reason. I'm actually too tired after lifting, so I do them as stand alone cardio.0

Thanks. I've been wondering that for a while. I'm so new to lifting sometimes I feel lost. BTW, what is a good morning?0

You have the bar on your back and bend over at the waist. One of the reasons I selected my particular complex is that I was hoping the good mornings and romanian deadlifts would help with hip drive in general on my actual lifts.Thanks.
