The Power of PAP
The “secret sauce” of the Complex Training program is a scientifically proven training technique known as Postactivation Potentiation (PAP). PAP primes your nervous system by pairing complementary exercises for a single muscle group – specifically, a light-weight power exercise and a heavier strength move.
PAP is what many elite-level athletes use in the gym to get bigger, stronger, and faster. My Complex Training routine delivers similar benefits, except that the workouts are more tailored to common goals like building muscle and burning body fat.
3 Types of Complexes
Throughout the program, three different types of complexes are utilized, all of which involve specific exercise pairings.
Power complexes place strength moves before fast, explosive power exercises. For example, a heavy bench press followed by plyometric push-ups on chest day.
Strength complexes flip the order, with the power move coming before the big lift. On leg day, for instance, this means depth jumps followed by squats.
Muscle complexes pair two hypertrophy (muscle-building) exercises in a traditional compound set, a type of superset where both moves target the same body part. For example, you’ll pair dumbbell lateral raises with dumbbell shoulder presses to build bigger delts.
Complex Training Split
The Complex Training program follows a 4-day split, where each muscle group is trained once a week – chest, triceps, and abs on Day 1; back, biceps, and forearms on Day 2; shoulders and traps on Day 3; and lower body on Day 4.
Power, strength, and muscle-building will be maximized with this training schedule. Plus, you’ll have the flexibility to train on whatever four days of the week you want.
Results to Prove It
Steve Flintoff
These are my results from last years summer shred challenge after finishing SS8. My results were achieved in just 8 weeks. If you want that beach body and to turn heads when you take your shirt off, this is the program that'll do just that, all you have to do is commit.

After finding Jim and his programs that were available to achieve my desired results. Love setting new goals and seeing what I can achieve through fitness.
Brian Heckathorn
I ran SS8 last summer when I wanted to lean down hard after a bulking phase. The intensity of those workouts were unmatched, and the results spoke for themselves.

Supplementation
Enhance your diet with high-quality supplements to take your muscle and strength gains, as well as fat loss, to the next level. Two stacks in particular in my award-winning JYM Supplement Science product line will give you an edge while following the Complex Training program:
JYM System
The more intense your workouts, the more fat you’ll burn. Pre JYM, Pro JYM, and Post JYM provide your body everything it needs around workouts to boost intensity, optimize performance, and fuel short- and long-term gains.
More energy and focus. Increased fat loss, strength, power, and endurance. Better recovery and repair after workouts. All of this from three best-selling JYM products working in synergy.
JYM Fat Loss Stack
My SS8 Advanced Fat Burner plus Omega JYM fish oil is the perfect fat loss supplement combination.
The SS8 Advanced Fat Burner improves upon my original Shred JYM formula with the addition of three new components: Chromax® Chromium Picolinate, Grains of Paradise Seed Extract, and my patented “AdrenaJYM” blend of Yohimbine and Rauwolscine.
As for Omega JYM, research has shown that the omega-3 fats in fish oil (specifically EPA and DHA) “turn on” genes that regulate fat burning in the body, while “turning off” genes that lead to fat storage.
