People think that in order to burn fat you have to do cardio.
Cardio is boring and for those who prefer weights to cardio is a necessary evil. Or so you might think.
What is a complex?
" A complex is a series of lifts back to back where you finish the reps of one lift before moving on to the next lift. The barbell only leaves your hand or touches the floor after all of the lifts are completed. "
