MAD SCIENCE Renegade style training often makes use of training complexes as they enhance power and force production, whilst teaching the body to work in a single harmonious fashion but additionally in a highly time efficient manner. Not simply for the competitive athlete, training complexes can vary in technical demands yet the benefits are always pronounced as complexes infers benefits to the total physiological system that creates a greater foundation for other work to build on. One of the most well known complexes used within Renegade Training has been affectionately titled “The Bear.” The Bear is a broad based complex that works in the following order (a) Power Clean-hang position (b) Front Squat (c) Push Press (d) Back Squat and (e) Push Press for yes, one single repetition. Now beyond, some draconian idea that I created this as “the ultimate payback” in fact it is based upon the idea of balanced development and recognizing the simplistic look of most lifts being pushing, pulling and squatting emanating from proper postural alignment. Movement generated properly is the key! However until the recent decision to film with Jim Massaro and Mike Ranfone the bizarrely titled “Mad Science” how these lifts are compartmentalized and then amalgamated in a training program hadn’t been divulged… The key, if you can call it that, in performing “the Bear” is the proper execution of these three complexes in a proper fashion:
From there sets/reps scheme are performed in what I have loosely termed as “ascending” and “descending” order whereby the focus of each 2 movement complex is performed 6 total reps broken in a unique fashion. Yes it gets kinda’ complicated so the easiest manner to describe is showing a typical “2:1 ascending” set: Power Clean (PC)/Front Squat (FS): perform 2 reps of the PC, followed by 1 rep of the FS, then repeat this order three times to complete the set. In this manner the “focus” of the complex (PC) is performed for a total 6 reps. This precise structure is followed in the two additional complexes. In a “1:2 descending” set the same PC is performed for one rep, followed by 2 reps of the FS and then further repeat the entire set 3 total times. In this manner, the focus of the complex, now the FS is performed 6 times. From there we move to “3:1 ascending” sets: PC/FS – perform 3 reps of the PC, followed by 1 rep of the FS and repeat this structure once more to complete the set. In this manner the focus of the complex (the PC in this instance) will again be performed 6 times And in a “1:3 descending” sets: PC/FS – perform 1 rep of the PC, followed by 3 reps of the FS and repeat this structure once more to complete the set. In this manner the focus of the complex (the FS in this instance) will again be performed 6 times. Confused yet? Likely and we haven’t got to the workout yet which will devastate, annihilate and… Inner Circle Members ONLY get the rest! Editors note: all of this revealed in the upcoming DVD “Mad Science,” a gut-wrenching, mind-numbing training session with John Davies, Mike Ranfone, led by the daunting Coach Jim Massaro!
