Tabata thrusters, from the same article, I believe. Gets the arms into it,
and forces you to come up with enough pop to get the weight overhead.
They're not so bad, really. OK, they are so bad, but you get hardened to
them. By my third or fourth session I was only in dire pain for 10 minutes
or so, and didn't hardly want to die at all.

I believe that the "official" story is that this is due to extreme
lactic acid production or somesuch. Personally I think that your body
gets so afraid that you are going to do another set of "Tabata" drills
that the central nervous system shuts down parts of the body that are
likely participants.
There's no question that mixing in some Tabata workouts yields
results, though. I certainly noticed the difference when I went to
play a little flag football.

Alwyn Cosgrove has some complexes that are similar to the Bear as well
that are worth taking a look at. I am convinced that for losing
weight or improving your general level of fitness that these sorts of
ridiculous brutal high volume weight exercises can't be beat. Plus
you're done before most people are through warming up  .

I don't see what your mean. He's not using a rack.

OK, I see what you mean, and you are probably right. Since this is a
weight that you can front squat, I doubt that how you position the bar
for the back squat is much of an issue. I would probably start with a
wider grip myself. I am flexible enough to do front squats with a
narrow grip, but I am not particularly comfortable with a narrow grip.
Either way, do 4 sets of 6 of this monster with a decent weight and
you'll feel it.

I'm talking about racking the bar on the shoulders. He's got his forearms
vertical, which is maybe ok with these weights but I'd be worried about
practicing bad form.
