Easy Strength for Olympic Lifting with Fat Loss 

I love how you referenced Rusty. He’s an awesome trainer who doesn’t get talked about much anymore, but had some great ideas in regards to physique and fat loss.

This sort of guidance is needed now more than ever, people need to take responsibility for their health now more than ever

Starting easy strength for Olympic lifting. Sounds alot like complex A and C. This gives even more clarity into it! Thank you, coach.

This is so AWESOME!!!!! I was just thinking of what I’m going to do for the next 8-12 weeks or was considering revisiting the original 10,000 swing challenge. But this really excites me. I don’t have any barbells but I do have a couple of heavy sandbags and heavy kettlebells. I’m going to give this a whole-hearted go and see what happens. Thank you so much, Coach John!

Hey Dan, is it possible to stay with the same weight. Don't have a enough plates to do different days. Would stay with the same weight as long as it feels super easy.

Hey dan, am I misinterpreting something in the warm up? You say “24 squats, 3 times”, but the warm up is snatch grip RDL, snatch, OH squat, back squat 3 x 8. Unless you mean the athlete should be catching the snatch in the OH squat, I am understanding the OH squat + back squat is 16 reps of squats 3 times, not 24. Thank you good sir!

Thanks Dan , going to try this , how long should I run this program ?

Hey Dan, love the simplicity of.. two lifts, a carry and a walk (almost a movie title!) Can kettlebell swap the barbell for the oly lifts, ie. dbl kb snatch, dbl clean & jerk, without any detriment to the program?

How have your lifts been?? Did you make any breakthroughs like your original incline bench? Really inspiring work! Thank you!

Hi coach, thanks for this! Great to see you in this shape. You look actually younger then ever. Great. One question, due to the Pandemic I only can use fixed weights on the Barbell. So 40,60 and 80 Kg unfortunately nothing in between. There for I would Handel the Heavy Days to the Repations and the increase of the workload due the higher reps.

Is this a beginner program,what is a snatch complex

How long before someone takes this, adds complexity for no beneficial reason and then takes credit for its invention. Thankfully that didn’t happen with goblet squat or slosh pipe! Wait a minute....

Where can I find the written version of this?

Hi Dan, I noticed on Pat Flynn's channel as you expanded on the olympic lifting/fat loss program you are taking the 'met' supplements including metformin. Have you noticed any decrease in performance/strength using metformin as a couple of studies have found less mitochondrial growth in people exercising and taking metformin as compared to placebo. Obviously longevity wise it seems like a go to supp, but interested in your thoughts on performance and taking metformin. Thanks :)

Can you run this with kettlebells?
